If the service level of an adopted child in residential therapeutic care is reduced below specialized at the end of a service level review, the contractor must immediately begin planning to:

 •  support the child's return to the adoptive home,

 •  refer the child and family to another facility that can meet the child's needs, or

 •  help the family find other ways to pay for the contractor's continuing care.

The child's eligibility for CPS-paid residential therapeutic care ends 60 days after the effective date of the reduced service level.
