Though eligibility for receiving case management services requires a person to have 2 of the substantial functional limitations, a separate standard is applied for the authorization of services through one of Missouri’s Medicaid Waivers. To qualify for services funded through a waiver, the person must have 3 substantial functional limitations from the list above.
Missouri currently has 4 Medicaid Waivers managed by the Department of Mental Health/Division of Developmental Disabilites.
