Department within 60 days from the date of the Department's final approval of
the application. Payment for services shall be based on the plan and services
delivered shall be consistent with the plan.
c)Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â If an individual chosen to participate in this program is
receiving Department-funded purchase of care or grant-in-aid services,

individualized plan to include newly-arranged services that may better meet the
individual's needs and for which there is no offset.
