ODPANN 20-110
The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) requires a statewide process to ensure providers are qualified to render services to waiver-funded individuals. ODP continues to align processes whenever possible, therefore, the ODP Bureau of Supports for Autism and Special Populations (BSASP) is replacing the previous AAW provider requalification process with the ODP Provider Qualification Process described below. This communication outlines the steps theprovidermustfollowto meettheserequirements.
NOTE: This communication does not describe the qualification process for SCOs. The qualification process for SCOs will be issued as a separate communication. It does, however, detail the steps Supports Coordinators take to transition individuals, if needed.
