National Core Indicators Project
​
NCI™ is a voluntary effort by public developmental disabilities agencies to measure and track their own performance.

Supports for Community Living Waiver
The SCL waiver program was developed for Kentucky citizens as an alternative to institutionalization. The focus of SCL is to allow a person to remain in or return to the community. Persons with developmental or intellectual disabilities who meet the requirements for residence in an Intermediate Care Facility for persons with Intellectual Disabilities, and who meet other Medicaid requirements, are eligible for this program.
Michelle P. Waiver
The Michelle P. Waiver is a home- and community-based waiver program of the Kentucky Medicaid program. The Michelle P. Waiver program is designed as an alternative to institutional care for people with intellectual or developmental disabilities. The services available through the wavier support individuals to remain in their homes and local communities.
Home & Community Based Waiver
The Home and Community Based (HCB) Waiver is a Medicaid program that provides services and supports to eligible elderly or disabled individuals, allowing them to remain in their homes and communities rather than in an institution. Services can include personal care, case management, adult day health care, home adaptation, and respite care to help people live independently and receive the long-term support they need.
Participant Directed
Participant Directed Supports (PDS) allow people eligible for Medicaid waiver services to choose their own providers for nonmedical waiver services. Provider choice gives members greater flexibility in the delivery of services received. The Supports for Community Living, Michelle P., and Home and Community Based Waivers each have a PDS component.
RISE Initiative

The 1915(i) RISE Initiative is a Medicaid program that helps adults with serious mental illness (SMI) achieve recovery, independence, and improved support in the community. RISE provides a range of services, including housing support, supported employment, in-home living assistance, medication management, and non-medical transportation, all aimed at reducing the need for hospitalizations and institutionalization
