How does a person with developmental disabilities get case management?
To get case management, tell the CDDO you need case management. A person with developmental disabilities or a family with a child with developmental disabilities may request case management from any qualified person or organization and the CDDO must help arrange for the chosen case manager to provide the service. The provider of case management is required to affiliate with the CDDO. If the person with developmental disabilities, whether adult or child, has a Kansas Medicaid card, Medicaid will pay for a portion of the costs for case management. If the person does not have a Medicaid card, due to federal requirements, he/she will be billed and may have to pay a reasonable fee for the service. See your CDDO for its current fee schedule.
