C.R.S. § 25.5-6-1705: Person-centered support plan.

(1) Each member receiving services shall have a person-centered support plan, or a similar plan specified by the state department, developed and managed by a case management agency or an entity, and subject to review and approval pursuant to section 25.5-6-404. The person-centered support plan shall:

(a) Be based on the particular service needs of the member receiving services;

(b) Describe the services necessary to avoid institutionalization;

(c) Ensure the member receives services in the setting of the member's choice; and

(d) Identify the supports needed for the member to achieve personally identified goals.

(2) Pursuant to this section, the person-centered support plan for each member receiving services must be reviewed at least annually and modified as necessary or appropriate.

(3) A person-centered support plan is not required for a person with an intellectual and developmental disability or a developmental delay who is eligible for long-term services and supports and who is on a waiting list for enrollment into a program funded pursuant to article 10 of this title 25.5. Each case management agency shall provide information and referral services to each member on the waiting list for enrollment in a program at the time of the member's eligibility and annually thereafter, regarding long-term services and supports that are relevant to persons and are commonly used by persons with intellectual and developmental disabilities and a developmental delay as provided by rules promulgated by the state board. The criteria for information and referral must be uniform in nature and applied throughout the state in a consistent manner.
