Arc Medicaid Service Coordination (MSC)

The Arc of Livingston-Wyoming Medicaid Service Coordination (MSC) program provides personalized, one-on-one assistance to help you and your loved one navigate the sea of services available on your journey to achieve success and self-fulfillment. 

With so many programs and services available to help you achieve your goals and dreams, it is critically important that a trained, knowledgeable person is available to listen, answer questions, and be a guide to the right activities and support based on individual needs and desires. The Arc can help, with a professional team of Service Coordinators, some with more than a decade of experience. 

Our Service Coordinators provide assistance to individuals and families in a variety of areas, with some of the most common activities being:

  • Obtaining and maintaining Medicaid
  • Pursuing Wavier enrollment (often times to secure Medicaid for children)
  • Assistance and advocacy at Committee of Special Education (CSE) meetings
  • Linkage to summer camps (securing funding if needed)
  • Linkage to recreation services, for both children and adults
  • Applying for and maintaining benefits, such as SSI
  • Applying for Family Support Services (Family Reimbursement, Special Sitters, etc.)
  • Applying for a NY State Park Access Pass (allowing free admission to state parks)
  • Assistance in transition to adult services (e.g., sheltered workshop, supported work, day habilitation)
  • Linkage to at-home supports (e.g., residential habilitation, hourly respite)
  • Assistance and guidance in obtaining and maintaining housing (e.g., applying for Section 8)
  • Pursuing guardianship
  • Exploring and securing residential placement
  • Pursuing funding for adaptive equipment and environmental modifications
  • Assisting individuals in exploring their personal interests (e.g., photography, dance, reading, etc.)

Our Service Coordination program has three offices, in Dansville, Mount Morris, and Perry.  For questions about the program, contact Jen Warner, MSC Director, at (585) 658-2828 ext. 331.  For intake eligibility, contact Cathy Sullivan at (585) 658-0200 ext. 1.
