AFH-SPECIFIC NEEDS CONTRACT AND EXCEPTIONAL RATES Clause Samples

The "AFH-Specific Needs Contract and Exceptional Rates" clause establishes the terms under which additional funding or special contractual arrangements are provided for individuals in Adult Family Homes (AFH) who have unique care requirements. This clause typically outlines the criteria for determining when a resident's needs exceed standard care provisions, such as requiring specialized medical equipment, behavioral supports, or one-on-one supervision, and specifies the process for requesting and approving higher reimbursement rates. Its core function is to ensure that providers are adequately compensated for delivering enhanced services, thereby supporting the placement and care of individuals with exceptional needs who might otherwise be difficult to serve.
