How TCC can help
Clear service information and documentation.
People with developmental disabilities may have individualized funding or service plans that reflect their goals, daily-living needs and community participation. TCC can discuss the approved supports you are seeking and how our home-care services may fit the plan.
- Discussion of the person’s goals, routines, preferences and authorized supports.
- Scheduling of appropriate TCC services within the agreed care plan.
- Service records and invoices for TCC-provided support.
- Coordination with the individual, family, guardian or authorized support team where permitted.
- Support focused on daily living, routines, community access and independence as appropriate.
- Clear communication when service needs or schedules change.
Before care begins
Three questions worth confirming.
Funding rules differ, so it is helpful to confirm these points directly with the organization responsible for your benefits or reimbursement.
Is pre-authorization required?
Ask whether you need approval before the first visit or before a change in schedule or service type.
What documentation is required?
Confirm invoice, provider, service-note or claim-form requirements so TCC can explain what we can provide.
