WAC 388-842-0210. How does DDA determine the rate to support a client in the RHDY program and when may it be updated?

(1) DDA determines the rate to support a client in a staffed residential home by assessing the client's identified needs. (2) DDA completes a rate assessment, which consists of four cost centers: (a) Administrative and non-staff costs, including transportation and damage reimbursement, if applicable; (b) Funds for community inclusion activities as outlined in WAC 388-842-0180 ; (c) Consultant and training costs; and (d) Instruction and support services, which are determined by assessing a client's identified needs and supervision in the following areas: (i) Activities of daily living as defined in WAC 388-106-0010 ; (ii) Instrumental activities of daily living as defined in WAC 388-106-0010 ; and (iii) Support and supervision. (3) DDA must conduct a rate assessment before a client starts services with a RHDY provider, if a significant change occurs, or if the household composition changes.
