1915(i) State Plan Amendment
1915(i) State Plan Amendment provides Community Behavioral Health Support Services – Supportive Supervision and Oversight to eligible individuals with income not exceeding 150% of the Federal Poverty Line who would be at imminent risk of requiring inpatient level of care without the service.
Questions that decide eligibility
GiveCare prepares the questions; the program makes the decision. Bring these to the call or the application:
- 01
Does the person receiving care live in Washington?
Residency is usually the first thing a program checks.
- 02
What are the current income and asset limits, and whose income counts?
Our record lists 150% of the federal poverty level — limits change, so confirm the current figures.
- 03
Does the VA disability rating meet the program’s minimum (our record lists null%)?
- 04
Do the work hours meet the minimum (our record lists null hours)?
- 05
Is there a caregiver-specific department, coordinator, or support line? Ask for it by name.
Many agencies have one that isn’t advertised on the website.
- 06
What documents do you need from us to start an application?
- 07
Is there a waitlist right now, and how long is it?
