Waiver Description and legal authority
F. Confusing. A “waiver program” may be interpreted a program of the waiver. If the sentence ended at waiver, it would make it crystal clear that what is mean is a separate waiver (i.e. ID vs. EDCD waiver)
F. An individual shall not be simultaneously enrolled in more than one waiverprogram.
Further define in Manual – enrolled vs. on waiting list(s).

D.4. Inconsistent time frames between initiation and/or completion of SIS with the existing 60-day enrollment timeline.
D.4. Change back to “services can be initiated within 30 60 days” OR change to “services are to be completed within 60 days.”

D.5. Inconsistency. Regulation says “The designated provider shall periodically monitor the DMAS-designated system…….” The manual states “monthly”.
Either change both to periodically or monthly.in both the regulations and the manual.
