After a successful Meet and Greet session, the individual supported should be instructed to contact their Case Manager to request Recreational Therapy. The Case Manager will ask the individual supported to sign the Medicaid-Waiver-Provider-List-Example, sometimes referred to as a “Pick List”. This process indicates the individual supported has made the decision to utilize Recreational Therapy supports with Assisted Independence.
When the Case Manager receives the signed Medicaid Waiver Provider List from the individual supported, the Case Manager will generate a Service Authorization (SA), formerly known as a Notice of Action (NOA), which provides an official authorization for Recreational Therapy supports to begin. We must request the start date of the Service Authorization (SA) to be the date of the Meet and Greet.
