\nAPPLICATION.................................................................................................... 12  \nIntroduction and Expectations  \nINTRODUCTION:  \nAn essential piece to the process of investigation and case management for youth under supervision of probation includes working with the youth and family to develop selfsufficiency in payment of medical care and behavioral health services. To assist with this the Office of Probation Administration has developed this resource which includes expectations that ALL officers investigating and supervising youth on probation must complete when a youth is in need of financial or medical assistance. This resource details steps necessary to help a youth and family be successful with this process, including application to Medicaid and Magellan. Finally, it is essential that officers who need additional support in this area immediately reach out to the Juvenile Justice Resource Supervisors (JJRS) and Treatment Officers within the probation system to assist with this process to ensure that youth are receiving the correct services to reduce risk and help them become successful adults.  \nEXPECTATIONS:  \nAssistance and pre-planning for medical care:  \nIt is the expectation that every youth involved in the probation system and requesting financial assistance, either directly from the youth and family or as a condition of the court, receive an immediate screening by a probation officer or staff person to determine the ability to financially support themselves. A vouchershall not be issued for a youth until this process is complete. It is essential to understand when financial assistance is requested, the first step is to determine what the family can do to support themselves.  \nThis process shall happen immediately and even BEFORE a youth is ordered by a court to a service. This is called “Pre-planning” and is essential to comprehensive case management. While a youth is involved in the investigation phase or evaluation stage, this financial assistance assessment shall be occurring. Additionally, working with the family and youth regarding the ability to support themselves in a selfsufficient manner is key to long-term family success. This is especially necessary if there is a plan for a youth to be placed out-of-home.  \nWhen a youth is involved in the investigation and evaluation stage, a step within this investigation process is to ensure the youth and family have all necessary medical care needs met. As clearly detailed in statute, this cost is not to be paid for with voucher service dollars and a probation officer does have a key role in this process. The probation officer shall assist the family in applying to Medicaid (steps detailed in this resource) or help them assess payment using other options such as private insurance.
