N.M. Admin. Code § 8.371.5.2 - SCOPE

A. For each individual with developmental disabilities receiving services in the community, either through state general funds or federal funding through the developmental disabilities medicaid waiver, there shall exist a single, unified individual service plan, or ISP. This ISP shall be developed by a single interdisciplinary team, or IDT, consisting of the individual, the guardian, parents, family, and representatives from all key community service provider agencies servicing to the individual, regardless of their source of funding, as well as advocates and others invited to participate by the individual.

B. These regulations shall apply to all individuals with developmental disabilities living in the community, regardless of whether their services are funded through the developmental disabilities medicaid waiver or through state general fund contracts with community providers. The following groups are excluded from these regulations, as their services and service delivery are addressed in other regulations:

(1) children, aged birth to three, who are recipients of services covered by the federal Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), Part C as administered under the New Mexico family, infant and toddler program;

(2) early periodic screening, diagnosis and treatment (EPSDT) case management recipients, unless allocated to the DD waiver;

(3) medically fragile waiver recipients;

(4) state general funded recipients of only ancillary services (non-residential and non-day program services), such as respite and the various therapies;

(5) community ICF/MR group home residents, covered by federal ICF regulations, except Jackson class members.
