Purpose

This form is used by the following programs:

  • Community Living Assistance and Support Services (CLASS)
  • Deaf-Blind with Multiple Disabilities (DBMD)
  • Medically Dependent Children Program (MDCP)
  • Community First Choice (CFC) option for Emergency Response System (ERS) only

The form serves as the primary document for purchases of authorized adaptive aids/medical supply items or minor home modifications made by the service provider for individuals. Service providers use this form for the following services:

  • Adaptive Aids (AA)
  • Minor Home Modifications (MHM)
  • Medical Supplies (MS) (not applicable for MDCP)
  • ERS (applicable only to CFC option)

Procedure

When to Prepare

The service provider representative completes Section I after the AA/MS or CFC ERS has been delivered or after the MHM has been completed to assess the individual's satisfaction, to identify any need for additional orientation/training hours and to document the individual's recommendations for resolution if dissatisfied with the purchase or with the modification.

For DBMD, this section does not need to be completed for batteries purchased.

The service provider representative completes Section II after the adaptive aid, medical supply or CFC ERS has been delivered to determine if the adaptive aid, medical supply or CFC ERS meets the individual's needs and, if applicable, upon resolution of problems that previously kept the adaptive aid, medical supply or CFC ERS from meeting the individual's documented needs. This section is also completed after the minor home modification has been completed.

An inspector completes Section III upon completion of every minor home modification and, if applicable, upon resolution of minor home modifications that previously did not meet Texas Accessibility Standards requirements or specifications. The inspector cannot be the same person who provided the minor home modification.

If the individual is not satisfied with the AA/MS/MHM or CFC ERS, this form should be submitted again once the resolution has been completed.

Number of Copies

Complete one original for each AA/MS/MHM or CFC ERS.

For CLASS and MDCP, provide a copy of the form to the case manager.

Transmittal

The service provider retains the original Form 8605 with all fields completed.

For CLASS, the service provider sends a copy to the case manager within seven workdays of verifying that the adaptive aid, medical supply or CFC ERS was delivered or that the minor home modification was completed and the individual's satisfaction was assessed.
