Service Code Categories and Classifications

Each service code DSPD administers is organized by a set of categories and classifications.

The categories and classifications are intended to show which services have a similar scope and utility.  Each service code also comes with its own description designed to clarify the circumstances under which it can be used.

The scope and purpose of some service codes are very similar to those of other codes.  Consequently, when the support coordinator is looking for a service code to address the person's need(s), they expected to adequately research the options and select the code best suited for the situation.  

Some service codes are not available for use in some waivers.  As a result, the support coordinator should also consider the code's availability in the waiver the person is served by.
