IV-E Eligibility

IV-E Eligibility

• PAW-TAW
• November 2009

IV-E Automation Background

• Federal SACWIS review determined that eWiSACWIS
  was not fully automated with IV-E Eligibility.
• Workers used to select radio buttons for
  eligibility criteria. Then, based upon the
  answers to the questions, the system determined
  the IV-E status.
• IV-E automation now looks to areas in the system
  for supporting documentation for the questions.

Other Changes

• Counties no longer have to manually refer IV-E
  cases to the Eligibility Unit.
• Counties used to select Refer to SEU Regional
  Manager on the Eligibility page.
• When an initial out of home placement (the
  removal OHP that starts an episode) is approved
  in eWiSACWIS, the system automatically sends the
  IV-E referral to the Eligibility Unit.

Other Changes Continued

• When creating an Out of Home Placement, the
  system now requires at least one parent or
  guardian to be documented for the child.
• Also assists in child support referrals sent to
  KIDS.
• The childs parent (s) and guardian (s) can be
  documented on the Parent Info tab of the childs
  Person Management record.
