The Department of Social and Health Services (department) is proposing to amend the following WAC 388-71-0503 - What definitions apply to WAC 388-71-0500 through 388-71-05640, 388-106-0010 - What definitions apply to this chapter?, 388-106-0060 - Who must perform the assessment?, and 388-115-0516 - What are the responsibilities of the consumer-directed employer when providing care to a client?. WAC 388-106-0010 was filed as a part of a CR-101 on 6/17/24 with WSR 24-13-075. That rule making will be placed on hold for this rule making to proceed. The department may amend other related rules as required. The department is allowed to contract with a federally recognized Indian tribe to determine eligibility including assessments and reassessments, authorize and reauthorize services, and perform case management functions for Medicaid long-term services and supports clients within the tribe’s authority.
