NYC HRA Medicaid Alert NY Independent Assessor & Changes to Personal Care (PCS) Assessment Process (5/31/23) Download
2023-05-31 NYIA and Changes to Personal Care Assessment Process.pdf
Explains what consumers seeking Medicaid CDPAP or personal care (PCS) should do in 2 situations: (1) Those who contacted NYIA directly, rather than applying for Immediate Need services and who are not in a Mainstream Medicaid managed care plan (known as "Fee for service (FFS) consumers") - If the NYIA notice says they are not eligible to enroll in MLTC and refers them to the LDSS - they should fax a copy of their NYIA decision notice to the CASA Central Intake unit (718) 636-7784. Case will be assigned to a CASA to use the notice to retrieve the NYIA assessments and then proceed to assess whether eligible for PCS or CDPAPt. But.. if they are a dual eligible and not in a hospice program, or in OPWDD, TBI or NHTD waiver - they are probably only eligible for 8 hours/WEEK of Housekeeping services from CASA. T

(2) If you applied to HRA for Immediate Need services - PCS or CDPAP via eFax (917) 639-0665 - you should not have to contact the HRA Home Care Services Program/CASA after the NYIA assessessments -- because NYIA should notify CASA of the outcome of the assessments directly and they should contact you about next steps to decide if you are eligible for services and if so - what is your plan of care.
