(This Police Directive Replaces PD #02-11-EMP)
This policy directive has been updated to: • Clarify instructions for sanctioning noncompliant Substance Abuse referred applicants/participants from Cash Assistance (CA) cases consisting of two or more household members. • Provide instructions for manually completing the Action Taken on Your Application: Public Assistance, Food Stamp Benefits, Medical Assistance Coverage (NYC) (LDSS-4013A [NYC]) to sanction applicants/participants due to non-compliance with substance abuse requirements. • Introduce the new Individual Sanction (ISAN) Worklist, which lists applicants (who are members of multi-person households) who are to be sanctioned due to noncompliance with Family Independence Administration’s (FIA) substance abuse assessment appointment. • Revise the following forms with the current Human Resources Administration (HRA) logo and change references from public assistance to cash assistance: .. Participant Rights and Responsibilities (M-75r) .. Consent for Disclosure of Alcohol or Substance Abuse Treatment Program Information and Records and Cash Assistance and Care Information and Records (M-75z) • Revise the Referral for Substance Abuse Assessment (W-456AA) text and format so that it is a more versatile referral form.
