DD Waiver regulations
 
  • 12VAC30-122-460 - Personal assistance service.
  • A.3. – Add “Personal Assistance can be provided simultaneously with supported employment services and can be billed concurrently”.  The provision currently states that an additional component of personal assistance services is to aid and supports to individuals in the work place, with the final sentence stating, “Work related personal assistance service shall not duplicate supported employment service.” The addition of the suggested sentence at the end of this section clarifies that both can be provided at the same time and that they are distinctly different services.

29. Therapeutic consultation service (12VAC30-122-550);

D (1): Recommendation - Consider adding Registered Behavior Technician’s (RBT) to list of people that may provide direct support under the supervision of Board Certified Behavior Analyst. (RBT’s would not provide consultation, rather direct support).

  • C.3- Strike “written preparation and telephone communication”
