Before you start

  • Assessments, strengths, goals, communication needs, health and behavior safeguards, requested services and amounts, delivery preference, provider or worker choices, schedule, backup plans, risks, preferences, and disagreements.

Who to contact

Open the West Virginia IDDW application and Acentra instructions

Step by step

  1. Prepare a needs-and-goals summary before planning.
  2. Ask that requested services, amounts, safeguards, delivery choice, provider or worker preference, schedule, and backups be documented.
  3. Retain submitted and approved plans, notices, authorizations, and referrals.

Expected next

Planning meeting, plan version, approval or revision request, authorization, provider or Personal Options referral, or named next step.

Save this proof

Assessments, summary, plan versions, meeting notes, notices, authorization, and referrals.

If this stalls or the answer is no

Ask the Case Manager to identify the unresolved request and decision owner.
