MS Manual 01/01/24
Vendor Payment – Payment made by a third party including Medicaid on behalf of a recipient. Waiver Services – Services offered as an alternative to institutionalized services. Working (Workers with Disabilities) – Being employed in any ongoing work activity for which income is received and reported to the IRS. Employment must be verifiable by viewing paycheck stubs, tax returns, form 1099 or proof of Quarterly Estimated Taxes for self-employment. The individual with a disability must be working at the time of application. If an individual stops working temporarily, and states that he/she intends to return to work, coverage can continue for up to six months. If the individual has not returned to work by the end of the sixth month, a ten-day advance notice will be given on form DCO-700, and the case closed after the tenth day. The caseworker will review the individual’s circumstances to determine if he/she is eligible in another Medicaid category, and if so, certify the individual in that category.
