2390.152(d)(1) | Individual 1 was admitted to the program on 10/2/2006. The CEO/staff 3 stated that individual 1 did not have an ISP meeting and is not receiving Federal or State funding for her placement.

Goodwill does not have access to the ISP for individual I through HCSIS since we are not an ISP authorized provider.

In addition, 2390.152 (b) states that if the individual has an SCO, which is the case for Individual 1, then 2390.152 (d) does not apply.
(--Goodwill has requested and received a copy of Individual #1's ISP from the Supports Coordinator. Goodwill will continue to request the ISP from the Supports Coordinator. - CH 10/12/2016 via telephone with Cheryl Garr.) |
