STATEMENT OF PURPOSEApril 30th, 2005
DSS recognizes the unique relationship that the School Districts have with EPSDT eligible clients and their families. It further recognizes the expertise of the School Districts in identifying and assessing the health care needs of EPSDT eligible clients and in planning, coordinating and monitoring the delivery of preventative and treatment services to meet their needs. These activities aid the potential EPSDT eligible recipient to gain eligibility, access screening services, follow-up on referrals to additional medical providers, establish a medical home for the child, develop and coordinate a service plan, follow through on the case plan and assist the family in becoming able to meet its child's needs in such a way that they are able to function at an optimal level with minimal intervention. DSS, in order to take advantage of this expertise and relationship, enters into this Intergovernmental Agreement with the School District for EPSDT Administrative Outreach and Case Management.
