The case management functions of a case manager for an adult with serious and persistent mental illness may be provided by a team that includes the adult, the adult's case manager, and other persons who meet at least the qualifications established in part 9520.0912, subpart 2. At the request of the adult with serious and persistent mental illness, the case management team shall involve other persons as specified in Minnesota Statutes, section 245.4711, subdivision 4, in all phases of development and implementation of the adult's individual community support plan. Members of the team other than the adult and the adult's case manager may be from any agency providing services to the adult with serious and persistent mental illness and, in addition, shall be employed by or under contract to the local agency to provide case management services. One member of the team shall be designated as the team leader subject to approval by the local agency. If a county board has authorized the use of case management teams, an adult with serious and persistent mental illness may request a single case manager or a case management team. If the adult chooses to receive case management services from a case management team, the team shall be responsible for carrying out the responsibilities of the case manager under parts 9520.0900 to 9520.0926, except that the team leader shall be responsible for coordinating the team's activities.
