TX HHS Form 8201. HCBS-AMH Recovery Manager Settings Check

The TX HHS Form 8201, HCBS-AMH Recovery Manager Settings Check, is a tool used by recovery managers (RMs) to ensure that participants in the Home and Community-Based Services - Adult Mental Health (HCBS-AMH) program are receiving the necessary support and services. The form helps RMs advocate for participants by verifying that all program requirements are being met.

The form consists of two main sections: setting integration with the greater community and participant choice. In the first section, RMs must confirm that the setting allows for full access to the community, including opportunities for employment, community life, and personal resource control. The setting must also meet specific indicators, such as being located among other residential buildings and providing transportation options.

The second section focuses on participant choice, where RMs select a setting option from among non-disability-specific settings or an option for a private unit in a residential setting. The selected setting must reflect individual needs and preferences, ensuring informed choice based on participant resources. This form should be used by RMs to verify that participants are receiving the necessary support and services, and to identify any issues that may threaten their safety or well-being.
