Common use of Program Structure Clause in Contracts

Program Structure. RAFH service recipients will transfer to the In-Home Services program. Service recipients will be able to select their provider from all available providers, including the former RAFH provider if that provider meets the enrollment criteria for a Homecare Worker. During the service planning process, the availability of natural supports will be assessed and applied but family’s decision to provide natural supports is totally voluntary. Unlike the Spousal Pay program, recipients who elect to use a relative provider, living in the same home, will not have their LADL hours or twenty-four (24) hour availability reduced. Relative providers may not subcontract services to other providers. Relative providers will become a part of the Home Care collective bargaining unit covered by this Collective Bargaining Agreement and covered by all terms of the Agreement.
