Qualified assessors and case managers shall provide to all public pay individuals written notice of the outcome of the assessment or the annual reassessment, including a statement indicating that the local department will notify the individual whether he is eligible to receive the auxiliary grant.

Notification of the right to appeal will be included in the notice provided by the local department. A determination that the individual does not meet the criteria to receive targeted case management is an action that is appealable to DMAS in accordance with the provisions of 12VAC30-110.
