in the IH/FSP is governed by §48.2702 of this chapter (relating
to Eligibility Determination Process).
(b) When a community care service or program becomes
available in a DADS region, DADS contacts the applicant whose interest
list request date, assigned in accordance with §48.1302(d) of
this subchapter (relating to Community Care Interest Lists), is earliest
on the community care interest list for the community care service
or program that is available, and offers the community care service
or program to the applicant.
(1) If the applicant or responsible party declines
the offer of the community care service or program, DADS removes the
applicant's name from the interest list for the community care service
or program, as described in §48.1302(e)(4) of this subchapter.
(2) If the applicant or responsible party accepts the
offer of the community care service or program, a case manager contacts
the applicant to conduct an eligibility determination for the community
