All comparable benefits/third party providers the consumer is eligible for must be accessed before using the waiver or any other funding program to pay for adaptive aids or medical equipment. The Counselor must work with the vendor to ensure that, if the consumer is eligible for Medicare, Medicaid, Home Health Services, or any other comparable benefit, the resources are used to meet the consumer's need for services. If the Counselor determines the consumer qualifies for services provided by another resource, they must obtain documentation to support their eligibility for the resource.
