Alternatives: The SCDDO is required to contract with qualified service providers that have been selected by an individual who is eligible to receive intellectual and developmental disability services. All listed providers have been selected as the preferred provider for at least one individual.
Financial Considerations: All listed providers may receive payments directly from Sedgwick County and/or bill Medicaid directly for services provided. Because the I/DD service system works on a reimbursement basis, funding will not be paid to providers until after the service has been provided and verified.
