Personal Assistance Service program cases (PASS) are registered on N-FOCUS.
PASS program cases are Mainframe, single person program cases added in Pending status. The status will not be affected by Expert System actions on the Medicaid case.
The program case must be manually set to Active, Closed, or Denied through the appropriate action on the Detail Program Case window.
To activate the case, select Activate Program case from the Actions drop-down menu on the Detail Program Case window.
Note: The status of a Pending PASS program case can only be set to Active if the Medicaid case is in Pending or Active status.
Note: The status of the PASS program case will not be updated by Expert System actions on the Medicaid case at this time.
Payment is made through Service Authorizations entered on the PASS program case.
PASS providers must be loaded onto N-FOCUS with PASS Service Approvals before Service Authorizations on the PASS program case may be created.
