The State Department of Health Services, following review and approval from the State Health and Welfare Agency, shall seek all necessary waivers from the United States Department of Health and Human Services in order to provide in-home and community-based care, as provided for under Section 2176 of the federal Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1981. The waiver proposal shall specifically include plans for the provision of services to any person who would be eligible for community-based and in-home services, as defined by the Department of Health Services, and who would be eligible for the Medi-Cal program, provided for pursuant to this chapter, except for the person’s income and who can, therefore, become eligible by meeting spend-down requirements.
