For those mental health clients who are not granted SSI/SSP
( i .e . , are found ineligible) , the County claims 90% State
Short-Doyle reimbursement for the residential care funds that
the County has paid to the facility operators , with the
remaining 10% balance being County matching funds . Ten to
twenty percent of the clients are found ineligible by the
Federal Social Security Administration, depending on changes in
Federal guidelines and then some of these are ultimately found
eligible through appeal processes .
III . REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS/BACKGROUND:
These Agreements represent an interim financing mechanism to
facilitate the residential care and movement of mentally
disabled clients from State or local inpatient facilities to
community based facilities for those clients who are deemed eli-
gible for SSI , as the County Mental Health Continuing Care
Program has been doing for several years . This Program provides
residential care for 40 to 50 clients per year .
