The Mississippi Transition Agency Policy Manual provides a comprehensive operational framework for agencies delivering transition services to individuals moving from institutional settings, such as nursing facilities or intermediate care facilities, to community-based living environments in Mississippi. This manual aligns with the regulations established by the Mississippi Division of Medicaid (DOM) and the Mississippi Department of Human Services (MDHS), including applicable sections of the Mississippi Medicaid Provider Manual and state licensing standards. It also ensures compliance with Medicaid waiver programs such as the Elderly and Disabled (E&D) Waiver, the Intellectual Disabilities/Developmental Disabilities (ID/DD) Waiver, and the Money Follows the Person (MFP) program. The manual includes policies and procedures governing agency licensing and certification, participant eligibility and assessment, person-centered transition planning, housing and service coordination, financial and benefit management, staff qualifications and training, client rights and protections, health and safety standards, emergency preparedness, incident management, documentation and billing, and quality assurance. It emphasizes a supportive, individualized approach that promotes independent living, self-determination, and successful integration into the community. This manual serves as a foundational resource for transition agencies in Mississippi, ensuring the delivery of high-quality, compliant services that empower individuals to transition smoothly and maintain their independence in community settings.
