Waiver Enrollment
How to Start Enrollment in Medicaid Waiver Services
The Ohio Department of Developmental Disabilities (DODD) administers two waivers in Ohio: the Individual Options (IO) and the Level One (L1). The Eligibility Unit, in the Division of Medicaid Administration and Development, processes all waiver applications and determines the level of care. Staff at each County Board of DODD completes assessment packets for all persons applying for enrollment on any DODD waiver. The Eligibility Unit reviews the information submitted, and makes a determination as to the individual's eligibility to receive waiver services. All waivers administered by the DODD require an annual renewal process for continued waiver services. Each individual enrolled must meet Medicaid eligibility requirements every month, and must have their level of care renewed annually.
