Will Caregiver Receive Notification If Patient Applicaiton Is Rejected?

[defunkt]

As the topic states, Will caregiver receive notification if patient applicaiton is rejected?

 

Just wondering, because I've yet to receive a card for a patient, and I believe theirs is about 2 weeks behind wait times for other patients I know.

that is a good ?. i undertsand a CG is supposed to be notified if a pt sends in a change of cg form, but im not sure if you ll get a denial letter on a pt, that could have singed you up to be their cg, but was denied.

1 of my patients got denied and I received nothing. Found out from her. Call your patient find out.If your only 2 weeks out you have a while to go, it's been taking 4-5 months to get cards.

This is the terrible part of the MDCH MMMP - they say themselves they do not have to notify people of denials other than the patient. The CG seems to be left with waiting for a card. Again, this is why it is important to know the patient - you better be doing home visits not hanging out in a parking lot.

Some of you misinterpreted what I had said, right now we are cresting the 6 month mark, and I have family members and friends that applied two weeks after him that have received their cards. This is someone I do know, but is someone that may have ignored the denial letter if he received it. So, basically I know what I needed to know at this point, since LARA processes them by dates received, this person has almost positively been denied. Thanks for the info.

There’s no need. If the patient was not approved, there is no caregiver. besides, the State is not obligated to send a caregiver anything but a card.
