15.9 Supplemental Job Placement

(Procedure Code 87003-05)

Loss of Employment Prior to Closure: If the individual loses the job before successful closure for reasons unrelated to the appropriateness of the initial placement, the DVR Rehabilitation Counselor may authorize remaining Milestone 1 hours and/or the appropriate flat fee for Supplemental Job Placement Payment to the JPSP to continue to assist the individual in finding employment that matches the desired employment goal, as stated on IPE. An Authorization for the Supplemental Job Placement Payment can only be issued once per individual, per JPSP.

Authorization: The DVR Rehabilitation Counselor can authorize for the remaining number of hours if the maximum number of hours has not been reached and clear documentation from monthly progress reports and contacts with the individual illustrates that the individual would benefit from continuing to work with the placement provider. Milestone 1 hours, when available, can be billed as performed and with required documentation submitted to the DVR Rehabilitation Counselor.

Payment Rate: $750.00
