    • *Feeder Programs: During the 2019 Inventory, Applied Self-Direction developed the term “feeder program” to define waivers that allow self-direction but do not provide self-direction as a service option. In this situation, waiver recipients who opt to receive self-directed services are referred by their primary HCBS waiver (i.e., the feeder program) to an appropriate self-direction program to receive self-directed services. Waiver recipients continue to remain enrolled in the primary HCBS waiver to receive non-self-directed services. This categorization was developed during the 2019 Inventory and states likely do not use this term.
