The purpose of these rules is to establish standards for specialized living service contracts. The standards provide an enhanced continuum of quality care in a home-like environment for specific target groups who are eligible for a live-in attendant, but because of special needs, are unable to live independently or receive services in other community-based care facilities and who would otherwise require nursing facility care. Services provided to residents in the Specialized Living Services Program are Medicaid home and community-based services, which may include specific services required because of physical, intellectual, or behavioral limitations in meeting self-care needs.
