Medicaid Service Coordination

A Medicaid Service Coordinator, MSC, provides information and options to individuals and their families to help them make informed choices.  The MSC assures the person has a good understanding of their situation and has their questions answers. 

The goal of service coordination is to assist individuals with developmental disabilities and behavioral health issues identify their needs and obtain the supports and services to meet those needs.  The ReHabilitation Center’s service coordinators help individuals with Medicaid enrollment and the eligibility review process with the Office of People with Developmental Disabilities’ (OPWDD).

When an individual is interested in an OPWDD Home and Community-based Waiver service, a service coordinator is required. The individual will also require Medicaid enrollment and an OPWDD eligibility determination.

Comprehensive Assessment /development of specific care plan and periodic review

Together, the individual and MSC identify valued outcomes and necessary supports and services. They will also develop an individualized service plan which is reviewed at least twice a year.

Advocacy, linkage, referral, and related activities

The MSC can assist an individual in advocating for themselves with family, programs, and service providers.  MSCs will link and refer individuals to OPWDD and community services best suited to addressing the individuals valued outcomes.

Monitoring and follow-up

The MSC will meet with the individual and/or their family several times per year.  During these meetings, the MSC will discuss current services, health/safety concerns, satisfaction with current services, and the individual’s  desire/need for additional services.
