State of California, Department of Social Services. (2003, October). All-county letter no. 04-43: In-Home Supportive Services (IHSS) in the workplace. (Available at http://www.dss.cahwnet.gov/getinfo/acl04/pdf/04-43.pdf.)

Abstract

This letter to all California county welfare directors and IHSS program managers explains implementation of AB 925, a state bill passed in 2002 allowing consumers of Medicaid-funded personal assistance services to utilize PAS services in the workplace. The legislation allows people who use In-Home Supportive Services to transfer service hours authorized for use in their homes to their workplaces. The memo notes that recipients cannot receive additional service hours in the workplace beyond those authorized for use in the home, defines what types of reimbursible services may be provided in the workplace, and specifies that recipients must get county approval before transferring service hours to the workplace.
