You can follow the steps below to obtain HCS (Home and Community-based Services) and ensure you receive the support you need:
1. Contact Your Local Mental Health and IDD Authority
Formerly known as MHMRA, your local Mental Health and Intellectual Developmental Disabilities Authority is the primary point of contact. Reach out to them to start the process.
2. Determine Eligibility and Complete Paperwork
The Mental Health Authority will work closely with you to determine if you meet the eligibility criteria for HCS. They will guide you through filling out the necessary paperwork and ensure you are placed on the waiting list for services.
3. Await Notification of Slot Availability
Once your paperwork is complete, you will be placed on a waiting list. The authority will notify you as soon as your slot for HCS becomes available, so you can begin receiving services.
4. Select a Service Provider
When your slot opens up, the authority will provide you with a list of approved service providers. You can review the options and choose a provider that meets your needs. You also have the option to visit their facilities to make an informed decision.
5. Explore Transfer Options if Unsatisfied
If you are already receiving HCS from a service provider but are not satisfied with the services, don’t hesitate to contact your Service Coordinator. They can discuss potential transfer options and help you transition to a provider who better meets your needs.
