42 CFR 441.305 : Public Health (Part 1 To Parts 1009-1099) — (§ 430.0 To Part 481) — Centers For Medicare & Medicaid Services, Department Of Health And Human Services (Continued) (§ 430.0 To Part 481) — Medical Assistance Programs (§ 430.0 To § 456.725) — Services: Requirements And Limits Applicable To Specific Services (§ 441.1 To § 441.745) — Home And Community-Based Services: Waiver Requirements (§ 441.300 To § 441.310) — Replacement of beneficiaries in approved waiver programs.

(a) Regular waivers. A State's estimate of the number of individuals who may receive home and community-based services must include those who will replace beneficiaries who leave the program for any reason. A State may replace beneficiaries who leave the program due to death or loss of eligibility under the State plan without regard to any federally-imposed limit on utilization, but must maintain a record of beneficiaries replaced on this basis.

(b) Model waivers. (1) The number of individuals who may receive home and community-based services under a model waiver may not exceed 200 beneficiaries at any one time.

(2) The agency may replace any individuals who die or become ineligible for State plan services to maintain a count up to the number specified by the State and approved by CMS within the 200-maximum limit.
