Title 7 . Health and Social Services
Chapter 47 . Hearings
Section 380. Alternative financial assistance

7 AAC 47.380. Alternative financial assistance

(a) An individual who is eligible for one or more of the following programs is not eligible for assistance under 7 AAC 47.300 - 7 AAC 47.525 until available benefits under each program have been exhausted:

(1) a 24-hour care or treatment program for alcoholism or drug abuse financed by the department under AS 47.37; and

(2) an inpatient mental health program for the mentally ill financed by the department under AS 47.30.

(b) An individual who is eligible for assisted living care or a training program for the developmentally disabled under AS 47.80, is eligible for assistance under 7 AAC 47.300 - 7 AAC 47.525 only if there is space available in an assisted living home after placement of individuals who are not eligible for that type of program.

(c) An individual must apply for each program specified in (a) and (b) of this section for which the department believes the individual is eligible. The department, or a responsible person acting on the individual's behalf, may assist the individual in submitting an application. An individual who fails to apply for each program, after being given 30 days written notice of the requirement, will be denied assistance under 7 AAC 47.300 - 7 AAC 47.525. A copy of the written notice will also be provided to the assisted living home if the individual is a resident when notice is given. An assisted living home that receives a notice under this subsection may choose to immediately issue a notice under 7 AAC 47.490, advising that the individual may be subject to involuntary discharge from the home if the individual fails to apply for each program as requested by the department.
