Summary

Kentucky Medicaid is reminding Community Mental Health Centers about Michelle P. Waiver assessment requirements, emphasizing that only qualified assessment teams can complete MAP-351 forms and strict timelines must be met. Non-compliance puts providers at risk for recoupment of payments.

Action Required

Action needed
Immediately: Community Mental Health Centers must ensure all MAP-351 assessments are completed only by qualified teams (2 RNs OR 1 RN plus qualified mental health professional). Upload initial assessments to MWMA within 60 days of allocation and re-assessments 40 days prior to expiration. Verify assessor credentials are clearly documented. Failure to comply risks payment recoupment.
