5 About the LOC LOC is replacing the MR-2 form This is a State form used for NC-Innovations and ICF-IID It is not a triplicate form and may be submitted electronically You may access the LOC on our website:

6 LOC Instructions Instructions for Level of Care Determination This form is to be used for prior approval and utilization review of ICF-IID level of care.

Diagnostic Information Check all of the disability areas that apply based on the documented disability.

10 Initial Determinations If the psychologist or physician determines that the individual does not meet the ICF-IID eligibility criteria the decision is final and is not subject to appeal. If the individual would like a second opinion, Alliance can arrange for a different assessor to complete the evaluation.

11 Initial Determination The physician/psychologist forwards the LOC and a copy of the assessment/evaluation to the Alliance IDD Utilization Management (UM) Supervisor The LOC and assessment/evaluation is forwarded to an IDD UM Care Manager for review The LOC is valid for 30 days and decision eligibility must be made within 30 days of the signature date on the form The IDD UM Care Manager reviews the information from the assessment/evaluation and verifies that the documentation supports the eligibility criteria that are documented on the LOC

12 Initial Determination If eligibility is verified the IDD UM Care Manager builds a Service Authorization Request (SAR) in Alpha for the ICF-IID residential service The consumer/legal guardian, receiving facility and the appropriate Department of Social Services (DSS) receive written notification of the approval If the assessment/evaluations do not support that the person meets ICF-IID level of care, the Alliance Medical Director will review the information and make the final determination If the Medical Director determines that the individual is not eligible, Alliance notifies the individual/legal guardian in writing and offers appeal rights.

13 Ongoing Determinations Every 180 days, based on consumer s initial date of eligibility, the ICF-IID facility/agency must complete an LOC that is signed by the facility physician/psychologist Medical doctor can sign anytime for ICF-IID Will honor current MR2 until it expires We will be reviewing the reauths based on providers current 180 cycle. The facility/rubicon submits a SAR via the Alpha Provider Portal and uploads the LOC to the request Electronic submission of the LOC is fine, this is not a triplicate form and originals are not required for submission An Alliance IDD UM Care Manager reviews the SAR and LOC If the request is approved the consumer/legal guardian, IDD Care Coordinator, facility and appropriate DSS office are notified

14 Ongoing Determinations If eligibility cannot be determined, the case is forwarded to the Alliance Medical Director for review If ongoing eligibility is not determined by the Alliance Medical Director, the consumer/legal guardian and facility receive notification including appeal rights

15 Vacancies and Referrals If you have a vacancy: Contact the Alliance IDD Care Coordination Manager Local Care Coordination and IDD Access will determine appropriate referrals from the wait list for that county (individuals most urgently in need and residing in the county where the vacancy occurs) Target will be to make referrals within 3 days of notification of an opening If these referrals do not work out, contact the Alliance IDD Care Coordination Manager prior to considering referrals from Rubicon and/or other MCOs
