NEW FORMS FROM THE MINISTRY OF COMMUNITY, FAMILY AND CHILDREN’S SERVICES (MCFCS)


MCFCS (formerly known as Ministry of Community and Social Services) has three new forms for use in the Ontario Disability Support Program (ODSP): the Health Status Report and Activities of Daily Living Index (which replace the Health Status Report Form and Activities of Daily Living Form); the ODSP Mandatory Special Necessities Benefit Request Form and theODSP Special Diet Application Form.

As of October 1, 2002, the descriptions and fee values for the MCFCS ODSP codes in Appendix F to the Schedule of Benefits have been changed to the following:


K050 Health Status Report and Activities of Daily Living Index (completion of amalgamated forms) $100.00
K051 Health Status Report (completed separately) $80.00
K052 Activities of Daily Living Index (completed separately) $20.00
K054 Mandatory Special Necessities Benefit Request Form $25.00
K055 Special Diet Application Form $20.00

NOTE :  Assessments using the old Health Status Report and Activities of Daily Living Form may still be submitted for payment.

INQUIRIES :  Physicians should direct inquiries regarding MCFCS forms and their use to the local MCFCS, rather than MOHLTC.
