In determining relative financial responsibility, the agency considers the income of parents as available to children living with parents.
If the court order states the extent of the parent(s)' financial responsibility for the child's medical care, the court order is followed.
After 90 days, it must be determined if the child will remain in the home or has been discharged as a ward.
The family's eligibility for other categorical assistance must be reviewed if the child is discharged as a ward, the case is closed, and the family requires financial assistance.
