(5) If at any time the Member is identified as potentially eligible for, or requiring LTSS, or having a Special Health Care Need, the CCO must also ensure those members are comprehensively assessed, per 42 CFR 438.208(c)(2), as soon as their health condition requires, to identify those members who have an ongoing special condition that requires either a course of treatment or regular care monitoring. (6) CCOs must ensure appropriate and prompt referral of Members identified in (5) of this rule to the Oregon Department of Human Services (ODHS), including Aging and People with Disability (APD) programs, the Office of Developmental Disabilities Services (ODDS), Local Mental Health Authorities (LMHA) or other service programs where appropriate for completion of a comprehensive assessment and potential service planning.
