January 2026 waiver waiting-list updateBefore you start
- OIDD eligibility decision, Medicaid status, functional and medical records, current living setting and caregivers, assessed needs, risks, desired services, prior requests, case-manager contact, and any notice.
Who to contact
Start with the official BHDD-OIDD intake line or the assigned intake, autism eligibility, or case-management contact. Use the complete notice for reconsideration or appeal and the setting-specific protective-report route for abuse.
Step by step
- Ask which current OIDD-operated waiver lane fits the person's eligibility and needs.
- Request the waiver slot through the current process; do not assume eligibility automatically created a waiting-list entry.
- Obtain written status for slot request, ICF/IID level of care, waiver capacity or waiting-list state, priority, and next event.
Expected next
A documented slot request, level-of-care evaluation, waiting-list or capacity status, priority action, offer, enrollment step, or notice.
Save this proof
Request, delivery proof, eligibility and Medicaid decisions, level-of-care records, capacity or wait status, priority, contacts, and notices.
If this stalls or the answer is no
Ask the case manager to identify which exact waiver step is open and request a written status or notice.

Limits
Since January 20, 2026, OIDD eligibility no longer automatically adds a person to an OIDD-operated waiver waiting list. A request does not guarantee level of care, capacity, priority, an offer, enrollment, plan, provider, or start.
Beyond Childhood’s checklists and prompts are planning aids derived from official sources. They are not official forms, legal advice, eligibility decisions, or guarantees of funding, capacity, quality, or service.
