Nursing Home Transition & Diversion Waiver Program (NHTD)

  • Description:

    The Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) Medicaid Waiver for Nursing Home Transition and Diversion (NHTD) is one of the options available to New Yorkers with disabilities and seniors so they may receive services in the most appropriate, least restrictive setting. This summary provides a general overview of the NHTD waiver. This waiver may help people leave a nursing home (Transition) or remain in the community (Diversion).

    The NHTD Medicaid waiver was developed based on the philosophy that individuals with disabilities and/or seniors have the same rights as others to:

    *Be on control of their lives

    *Encounter and manage risks and learn from the experiences

    *Medicaid State Plan services and be in need of one or more waiver service

    *Eligible for nursing home level of care

    *Authorized to receive Medicaid Community Based Long Term Care

    *18 years of age or older

    *Choose to live in the community as a participant in this waiver rather than in a nursing home.
