Service Description
|
Intermediate care facilities for people with mental retardation (ICF/MR) are institutional settings which diagnose, treat and/or rehabilitate people with mental retardation. They provide, in a protected residential setting, 24-hour supervision, coordination, and integration of health or rehabilitative services to help each person function at his or her greatest ability. In NC there are two types of ICF/MR facilities that Medicaid reimburses, State operated and non-state operated.
Persons who receive care in these settings have to be prior approved.
ICF/MR services are optional. Medicaid's Early Periodic Screening, Diagnosis and Treatment (EPSDT) program requires that states offer these services, if medically necessary, to children up to age 21. |
