Waiver Application and Enrollment

Complete  an Assessment
Packet with Your County Board of Developmental  Disabilities


When you apply for waiver services, begin by contacting and meeting with your County 
Board of DD. Board of DD  staff will assist you with an intake process, including completing an
assessment  packet that helps determine your level of eligibility. The County
Board will  then submit your assessment packet to DODD to review and make a
determination  for eligibility.

DODD Reviews Your Waiver Application
The Eligibility Unit in DODD’s Division of Medicaid Administration reviews the 
assessment packet you complete and submit through your County Board of DD. The 
Unit reviews the packet and uses the information to determine eligibility for 
waiver services, and will report determination back to the County Board. Your 
County Board will then work with you to begin enrollment in waiver services.  
 
Maintaining Your Eligibility
Your waiver  eligibility and level of care must be renewed annually, which you will
also do  through your County Board. In addition, once enrolled on a waiver, you
must meet  Medicaid eligibility requirements every month to continue waiver
services.
