What is the coding for various treatment situations?
· For coding of various treatment situations see the chart below.
How are cash payments issued for GW/W01?
· ACES doesn’t issue cash payments for clients eligible to receive ADATSA inpatient or outpatient treatment. Individual counties may issue cash payments on these cases.
· See Clarifying Information EAZ Manual – WAC 182-508-0375 ADATSA--Eligibility for state-funded medical care services (MCS). (Emergency rule effective 11/1/11.)
What effect does ADATSA have on Basic Food assistance?
· Communication between the county and CSO in this situation is important as the county is responsible to report to the CSO the amount of payment being made to the client. This cash payment is used to compute Basic Food benefits if eligible.
· If the household is receiving Basic Food, code the amount of the cash grant being paid by the county on the UNER screen as [OF] – Other Countable FS Only for the benefit computation to be correct. See BASIC FOOD PROGRAM.
· When a client is residing in a treatment facility, the treatment facility may be eligible to receive Basic Food benefits on a client’s behalf as an authorized representative. See EAZ Manual – WAC 388-420-0010 Alcohol and drug treatment centers. For coding instructions, see Authorized Representative. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
