Other ICT Requirements
ICT Escalation Process
[EAS 40-197]
Any questions concerning the ICT case must be addressed to the EW of record in the sending county. Counties are expected to respond to ICT questions from other counties with 7 working days. Failure on the part of the sending county to respond to requests from the EW within 7 working days should be escalated to the EWS. EWS will attempt to contact the EWS in the sending county to resolve any outstanding issues.
If the EWS does not receive a response from the sending county after 3 working days, they will escalate the issue to the Santa Clara County (SCC) ICT Coordinator. The SCC ICT Coordinator will contact and work with the ICT Coordinator from the sending county to resolve the outstanding issues.
Intra-Program Status Change
[EAS 40-190.23]
Intra-Program status changes do not alter the “ICT period,” nor do they constitute a discontinuance for cause. Use the following examples as a guideline:
| IF... | THEN... |
| There is a change from CalWORKs to Medi-Cal before the expiration of the ICT period, | The sending county's responsibility for a cash grant and/or medical assistance only continues until the end of the ICT period. |
| The client is receiving Medi-Cal only in the sending county and requests CalWORKs in the receiving county, | The sending county is responsible for the continuation of the Medi-Cal only. The receiving county is responsible for the determination of eligibility and payment of CalWORKs aid, following regular beginning date of aid rules. |
| CalWORKs eligibility changes to Post-Medi-Cal eligibility during the transfer period, | The sending county is responsible for the Post-Medi-Cal period. |
Transitional CalFresh (TCF)
SB 1339 requires counties to complete ICTs for TCF cases during any month of the five month period. Whichever county the TCF recipient voluntarily notifies of the move, must initiate an ICT within seven (7) business days of receiving the notification.
