You will receive annual notification about information released in the Parent Handbook with Procedural Safeguards. Schools have released this information to the state program since 1993, but now need your permission because of changes in federal law. You have the right to refuse consent to bill the state Medicaid system, and you have the right to revoke this consent at any time. If you check No below, the district will still provide the services but the district will not receive funding from the state Medicaid system for these services.
