What must individuals do to receive services through the Waiver program?

To receive services through the Waiver program, individuals must enroll through Administrative Entities (AE) or Counties. This process ensures that applicants are connected with the appropriate local resources and services tailored to their needs. By engaging with AEs or Counties, individuals can facilitate their access to necessary supports, navigating the specific requirements and processes related to the Waiver program.

Other options, such as contacting private healthcare providers or submitting an application to CMS, do not directly address the enrollment process specific to the Waiver program. Additionally, waiting for annual reviews is not a proactive step to gain access to services and would not lead to immediate assistance or service provision. Thus, the enrollment through AE/Counties is a crucial and required step in receiving services within the framework of the Waiver program.
