TX HHS Form 1024. Individual Status Summary

The Individual Status Summary (Form 1024) is a crucial document issued by the Texas Health and Human Services (HHS). This form is designed to provide a comprehensive overview of an individual's status, highlighting their unique needs and requirements. A Registered Nurse (RN) must complete this form, ensuring that all necessary information is accurately recorded.

The purpose of Form 1024 is to facilitate the development of effective Individual Service Plans (ISPs) or Individual Plans of Care (IPCs). The form helps identify areas where services may exceed cost limits and provides insight into why these services are necessary. Additionally, it highlights community resources, informal supports, and service options available to the individual, as well as explores alternative living arrangements and agency programs.

This form is essential for HHS to understand an individual's needs and provide appropriate support. By completing Form 1024, healthcare professionals can ensure that individuals receive the necessary care and services, while also exploring alternative solutions when cost limits are exceeded. The information gathered on this form plays a critical role in shaping the individual's care plan, ultimately improving their overall well-being.
