Coordination Services for Recipients Not Ventilator-Dependent

Change in Coordinators

When a change in coordinators occurs on a nonventilator-dependent case, documentation in the medical record must include the name of the new coordinator and the date he or she will assume coordination responsibilities. The POC should also be updated to reflect the change in coordinators. There is no need to submit an amendment with the change to Wisconsin Medicaid.
