Service Options Using Resources in a Community Environment (SOURCE)
Overview Service Options Using Resources in a Community Environment (SOURCE) links primary medical care and case management with many referred providers of approved long-term health services in a person's home or community to prevent hospital and nursing home care. All SOURCE clients must be eligible for Medicaid and meet nursing home level of care.
SOURCE serves aged, blind and disabled Georgians who are eligible for Supplemental Security Income/ Medicaid (SSI). At the end of FY10, over 18,000 people were enrolled in the SOURCE program.
An assessment helps to determine how much care a participant needs. An individual care path is designed based on the need for medical monitoring and assistance with functional tasks. Family members and other informal caregivers as well as staff from support agencies participate in care paths. In addition to the core services, SOURCE offers personal support services, assisted living services, extended home health, home delivered meals, adult day health care, emergency response services and 24-hour medical access to a case manager and primary care physician.
There is no waiting list for the SOURCE program.
