The purpose of this GIS message is to advise local departments of social services (LDSS) staff of the procedures for submitting Care At Home (CAH) I/II applications for children who have a Social Security Administration (SSA) disability determination. A requirement for CAH I/II is that the child be physically disabled based on SSA criteria. Applicants for CAH I/II, who are in receipt of Supplemental Security Income (SSI), are determined eligible for Medicaid based upon the disability and financial determinations made by SSA.
