Yes. Absence of eligibility for Educational Intervention (EIA) services under the Demonstration does not keep ECHO beneficiaries from receiving otherwise authorized allowable services. I have been informed by my Managed Care Support Contractor (MCSC) that my child is not eligible for Educational Intervention (EIA) services under the Department of Defense Enhanced Access to Autism Services Demonstration. Can I appeal this? No. A determination that your child is not eligible for benefits under the Demonstration is considered a factual determination based on a requirement of the law or regulation, and as such is not appealable.
