No. OKDHS policy OAC 340:100-3-33.2 prohibits legal guardians from being paid as direct contract providers of waivered services except under the following circumstances: They are the only provider of the service due to geographic remoteness or they are uniquely qualified to provide the service due to considerations such as language.
