They may be qualified through MN choices assessment and or have a lead agency rule 1 85 developmental disability case manager," the presenter said.
The presenter clarified exclusions and program interactions: a child permanently residing in certain licensed residential settings (intermediate care facilities, nursing facilities, regional treatment centers, or other DHS- or Minnesota Department of Health–licensed facilities) is ineligible.
