Tex. HHSC Medicaid Hospice Provider Manual § 9170
Residential Care Program (RC)
Revision 05-1; Effective December 2, 2005
The Residential Care (RC) Program provides services to eligible adults who require access to care on a 24-hour basis but do not require daily nursing intervention. Services include personal care, home management, escort, 24-hour supervision, social and recreational activities, and transportation.
Supervised living is a state-funded 24-hour living arrangement in which the consumer is expected, if able, to contribute to the total cost of his care. The consumer keeps a monthly allowance for personal and medical expenses, and the remainder of his income is contributed to the total cost of his care.
Services provided under the RC program are delivered through either residential care or emergency care.
Emergency care is a state- or Title XIX-funded living arrangement that provides services to eligible consumers while caseworkers seek a permanent care arrangement. Emergency care consumers do not contribute toward the cost of their care.
