4. Policy Application for a §1915(c) Home and Community-Based Waiver – Instructions, Technical Guide and Review Criteria (Technical Guide) 3. Extended State Plan Services Page 112 – The services included in a waiver must not duplicate services that are provided under the State plan. However, through a waiver, a state may augment the services that it provides under the State plan. Since Federal requirements concerning EPSDT services mandate that Medicaid eligible children receive all medically necessary services listed in §1905(a) of the Act that they require regardless of whether such services are specifically included in the State plan, the waiver may not provide for the coverage of services that could be furnished to children under EPSDT DDS ACS Waiver Provider Manual Section 218.000 Specialized Medical Supplies – Durable and non-durable medical equipment not available under the Arkansas Medicaid State Plan that is necessary to address beneficiary functional limitations. Necessary medical supplies not available under the Arkansas Medicaid State Plan. Items reimbursed with waiver funds are in addition to any medical equipment and supplies furnished under the state plan and exclude those items that are not of direct medical or remedial benefit to the beneficiary. All items shall meet applicable standards of manufacture, design and installation. When the items are included in Arkansas Medicaid State Plan services, a denial of extension of benefits by DMS Utilization Review will be required prior to approval for waiver funding by DDS. DDS ACS Waiver Provider Manual Section 220.000 Case Management Services - Case management services assist beneficiaries in gaining access to needed waiver services and other Arkansas Medicaid State Plan services, as well as medical, social, educational and other generic services, regardless of the funding source to which access is available. 02/27/2012 4

Services not otherwise covered under the Medicaid Program will be considered for coverage if the services are prescribed by a physician as a result of an EPSDT screen. The services must be medically necessary and permitted under federal Medicaid regulations. EPSDT covers any medically necessary service that will lead to the maximum reduction of medical and physical disabilities and restore the child to his or her best possible functional level. Services that are necessary to treat or ameliorate a defect, physical and mental illness, or a condition identified by a screen, must be considered for EPSDT beneficiaries under age 21 regardless of whether the service is otherwise included in the Arkansas Medicaid State Plan. For those services that are not included in the Arkansas Medicaid State Plan, the PCP must complete - form DMS-693, titled Early and Periodic Screening, Diagnosis and Treatment (EPSDT) Prescription/Referral for Medically Necessary Services/Items Not Specifically Included in the Medicaid State Plan. All information requested on form DMS-693 must be provided. The PCP must attach a copy of the Child Health Services (EPSDT) screen results found in the patient chart records. The DMS-693 form must be submitted to the Division of Medical Services, Utilization Review Section, which will review the information for medical necessity. 02/27/2012 6
