BRIDGES ADMINISTRATIVE MANUAL STATE OF MICHIGAN DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH & HUMAN SERVICES

• Bridges sends a DHS-1605, explaining simplified reporting and household income limit, and a DHS-1045, Simplified Six-Month Review, to FAP groups assigned to simplified reporting. • Bridges produces and sends a DHS-198C, Child Development and Care (CDC) Client Notice, to the client. • Bridges produces and sends a DHS-198, Child Development and Care (CDC) Provider Notice, to the provider(s). • Bridges produces and sends a DHS-1606, Health Care Coverage notice which details the information used to determine eligibility. STANDARD OF PROMPTNESS All Programs Bridges generates a redetermination packet to the client on the fourth day of the month before the redetermination is due. If the fourth day occurs on a holiday or on a Sunday, then the packet is sent on the next business day. This allows time to process the redetermination before the end of the redetermination month. Reinstatements in Month Prior to Redetermination Month If an EDG closes and is due for redetermination the following month and is subsequently reinstated at least three days prior to the cur- rent month’s negative action cut-off date, the redetermination packet will be generated as usual. If an EDG closes and is due for redetermination the following month and is subsequently reinstated on or after three days prior to the current month’s negative action cut-off date, the redetermination packet will be generated at month end. FAP Only The FAP redetermination must be completed by the end of the cur- rent benefit period so that the client can receive uninterrupted benefits by the normal issuance date.
