Reduction of Timeframes KWP Full-Family Sanction Volume III MS 2007
Full Family Sanction • This presentation serves as an overview of Volume III - MS 2010
Full Family Sanction • KWP work eligible participants who do not cooperate with the program rules are subject to sanction and eventual discontinuance of their K-TAP benefits
Who will it effect? • A parent/caretaker relative who has received at least 6 cumulative months of K-TAP (including any out-of-state benefits) • Has been sanctioned at least 3 cumulative months AFTER 8/1/2005
Who will it not effect? • Parent/caretaker relatives that are: • Exempt • Currently has good cause • This is not appropriate for “W” cases, disc a “W” case.
Participation is Preferable! • Every effort should be made to avoid imposing a penalty • Utilize all available resources such as Targeted Assessment Program, Voc-Rehab, etc., • Use KAMES Barrier assessment to identify potential difficulties
What happens on KAMES? • KAMES Automatically implements the action to discontinue indicating code 536. This trumps other discontinuance codes except 660. (60-month) • Alternate programs to MA, including the sanctioned individual, if appropriate.
What happens on KAMES? • Automatically refers the case for Safety Net services through P & P. • Posts a spot check to review the Food Benefit case. K-TAP Disc cures the Food Benefit
What to do about reapplications? • Once an individual receives a full family sanction he/she must cure the full family sanction prior to reapproval of the K-TAP case, regardless of the reason for the most recent discontinuance. A full family sanction may be cured by a determination that the individual has good cause, has become exempt from participation in KWP activities, or has demonstrated compliance by participating for 15 calendar days. • Review Volume III- MS 2015 for complete details for KAMES entries
