1915(i) State Plan Option - Adult Day Health Care and Habilitation

Section 1915(i) of the Social Security Act allows the Nevada Division of Health Care Financing and Policy (DHCFP) to provide State Plan Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) similar to that of a 1915(c) HCBS Waiver using needs-based eligibility criteria rather than institutional level of care criteria.  This affords individuals who require less than institutional level of care, but still have a significant need, to have access to greater number of services in the community which they might not otherwise qualify if only offered under a 1915(c) Waiver.

 

The following are three services available through a 1915(i) HCSB State Plan Option to individuals 18 years of age and older who meet the needs-based eligibility criteria.

  • Adult Day Health Care  
  • Day Habilitation- targeted to individuals with Traumatic or Acquired Brain Injury
  • Residential Habilitation- targeted to individuals with Traumatic or Acquired Brain Injury
