245D Waiver Services License Reinspection or Audit
245D Waiver Services License Reinspection or Audit
Who?
The 245D Waiver Services License Reinspection or Audit legal package is for already established 245D Waiver Services providers who have reached their recertification date and have been issued a notice from the Minnesota Department of Human Services OR are seeking an audit of there business services.
Why?
Most 245D Waiver Services License providers start strong with little to no legal oversight or issues but slowly encounter more and more legal questions and risk as they grow. This creates legal myths and anxieties about what is legal and what is perhaps industry practice, but not legal. This package is designed to get smoothly through the 245D Waiver Services recertification process, and also serves as an audit of your business to clean up loose ends. Generally clients find that the correct legal forms/documents also save the Company time and money to remove previous administrative work that was duplicative and unnecessary.
