Review APD QSI information

Before you start

  • What changed, when, current risk, failed services, caregiver or housing change, medical or behavioral records, current QSI, support and cost plans, and requested response.

Who to contact

Waiver support coordinator, APD regional office, and QSI assessor when assigned.

Step by step

  1. Send a dated changed-needs and failed-support summary.
  2. Ask whether the change requires a QSI reassessment or support-plan revision.
  3. Track any cost-plan, authorization, provider, or backup action separately.

Expected next

A planning meeting, reassessment action, revised plan, authorization review, or written explanation of the next response.

Save this proof

Change summary, delivery proof, meeting notes, QSI action, revised plans, authorization, owner, and next date.

If this stalls or the answer is no

Escalate to the support-coordination and APD supervisors and ask which exact assessment, plan, or authorization process owns the request.
