-
An individual (not currently enrolled in the program) who is ineligible for and denied services under the FCSP may submit a grievance as outlined in this section.

FCSP services may be discontinued if the caregiver has not accessed respite services within a consecutive three-month period.
-
FCSP services will be discontinued if the caregiver temporarily relocates their residence (2 months or longer) outside of North Dakota.

A caregiver will be notified in writing of the reason for denial or closure, the right to submit a grievance and the grievance process through the NDFCSP Notice of Service Denial or Closure (SFN 331). The SFN 331 is not required if the closure is due to the death of the caregiver or the care recipient.

If additional guidance is required, consult with the NDFCSP Program Administrator when denial or closure of services is being considered.
