SOCIALLY NECESSARY SERVICES:
The Bureau for Children and Families of the West Virginia Department of Health and Human Resources, in partnership with APS Healthcare, and Administrative Services Organization (ASO), is initiating a new process for the authorization of services in child welfare cases. The name Socially Necessary has been chosen to designate the class of services governed by this new process.
Socially Necessary services are interventions necessary to improve relationships and social functioning, with the goal of preserving the individual's tenure in the community or the integrity of the family or social system.
Ultimately, socially necessary services are those necessary to achieve the child welfare goals of safety, permanency and well being. The designation socially necessary is used to distinguish these services from other services that have been determined to be medically necessary and can be obtained through Medicaid.
Youth Health Service, Inc. has been authorized to provide several Socially Necessary services to families in Randolph and Barbour Counties. Among those are individualized and general parenting, safety services, supervised visitation and transportation.
