For the clients with developmental disabilities, the most common diagnoses listed on the assessments forms was high blood pressure. Table four provides information on the type and amount of services received by clients in CCSP with and without developmental disabilities. The claims data provided by EDS indicate that the monthly CCSP service package changes little over the course of a client's enrollment. The services offered under CCSP are listed in the first column. Columns two and four show the percent of clients in each sample receiving a particular service, while columns three and five show the total amount spent on that service for all these clients in a given month.
Clients can receive more than one type of service.
The table indicates that little difference exists in the type of services received by the two client groups. Significant differences exist in the amount of in-home respite received and the amount of services received from Medicaid home health aides. Clients with developmental disabilities are significantly less likely to receive help from a home health aide than those without developmental disabilities. However, when they do receive this service, table five shows that they receive a larger amount of it than clients without developmental disabilities. Clients with developmental disabilities are significantly more likely to receive in-home respite, but if they receive this service, both groups receive it in roughly equal amounts.
