OMM/OCFS/OTDA Materials: GIS Issued by OMM

09 MA/022: New Restriction/Exception Code 23 Replaces State/Federal Charge Code for OMH HCBS Waiver for Children and Adolescents with Serious Emotional Disturbance
The purpose of this General Information System (GIS) message is to advise local districts of a change in the way that local share responsibility is removed/reinstated when children are enrolled/disenrolled from the Office of Mental Health (OMH) Home and Community Based Services (HCBS) Waiver for Children and Adolescents with Serious Emotional Disturbance.
Since the waiver’s inception in 1996, local shares have been removed/reinstated through use of the State/Federal (S/F) Charge Code in WMS; i.e., code 23 Upstate, and code 37 in New York City. Local district staff would add the S/F Code when advised by OMH of a child’s enrollment, and remove it when advised of his/her disenrollment.
Effective immediately, local share for OMH HCBS Waiver children will be removed/reinstated through use of a new Restriction/Exception (R/E) Code 23. Both Upstate and New York City WMS will use the new R/E code 23.
