Developmental Disabilities Definition
 

The definition of developmental disabilities as listed in Licensure regulations is INCORRECT in that it indicates that conditions must be manifested prior to age 18 but it should be corrected to be prior to age 22.  

As an additional suggestion, the definition MUST BE CONSISTENTLY WORDED in all official references such as those listed in Medicaid Waiver regulations as well as all posted on the DBHDS web site.
