§ 7053.5. Modifying Order of Selection for Vocational Rehabilitation Services.

(a) When the Director of the Department has declared the Department in Order of Selection for Vocational Rehabilitation Services, at least a quarterly review will be done to determine whether the projected resources available to serve individuals in priority category/ies currently being served are adequate to meet all projected costs for such individuals for the remainder of the fiscal year.

(b) If the review indicates that the projected resources are inadequate to serve individuals in priority categories currently being served, the priority categories being served will be reduced accordingly. Individuals in a priority category no longer being served, whose IWRP was written and signed prior to implementation of the reduction shall continue to receive services including additional services subsequently identified as necessary to complete their IWRP.

(c) If the review indicates that the projected resources are adequate to serve only individuals in priority categories currently being served, no change will be made in the priority categories being served.

(d) If the review indicates that the projected resources are adequate to serve individuals in additional priority categories, those categories will be served.

(e) The Director shall make a declaration of any change in priority categories.
