PROVIDER DETERMINATIONS In accordance with 7 CFR 273.7(c)(18) a State agency must ensure that E&T providers are informed of their authority and responsibility to determine if an individual is ill-suited for a particular E&T component. Describe the process used by E&T providers to communicate provider determinations to the State agency. The State agency has three E&T providers with CLIMB, DADS, and ESGW; if a participant is ill-suited for their E&T program, they are instructed to notify the SNAP E&T Program Manager, who will communicate next steps for the Agency to take. Describe how the State agency notifies clients of a provider determination. Once the State Agency is notified that a participant is ill-suited for an E&T program, the SNAP program manager reaches out to the client to review the case for possible work registration or ABAWD exemptions and then notifies the participant through a written provider determination notice (F012). At this time, Wyoming is a voluntary E&T program and will work with participants if circumstances change to refer potential participants to future E&T programs .
