REFERRALS, ENTRANCE, AND EXIT CRITERIA

Referral/Admission to AFS, Inc.:

Potential members must be approved for CES Waiver Services in the state of Arkansas. Upon approval for CES Waiver Services, any person and/or entity may refer a CES Waiver Services recipient to AFS, Inc. Once AFS, Inc. receives a referral, an inter-disciplinary team within the organization will review the referral to determine whether AFS, Inc. can meet the needs of the recipient. Once a decision is made, the referral source will be informed of the decision (the recipient and/or their legal representative will also be informed of the decision if possible).

  • AFS, Inc. has implemented a Waiting List for potential members. CES Waiver Services recipients are added to the Wait List based on the date/time that the referral was received by AFS, Inc. When membership at AFS, Inc. becomes available, potential members will be contacted on a first-come-first-served basis as determined by the date/time of initial referral.

  • Exit Criteria: AFS, Inc. does not determine who qualifies (or continues to qualify) as a CES Waiver Services recipient in the state of Arkansas. Members may exit from AFS, Inc. services for a number of reasons, which may include, but are not limited to, the following:

    • The state of Arkansas determines that the member no longer qualifies as a recipient for CES Waiver Services

    • The member no longer wishes to receive CES Waiver Services

    • The member moves outside the state of Arkansas
