What happens if you are approved to receive a DDA paid service and you refuse to have a DDA assessment administered?

If you are approved to receive a DDA paid service and refuse to have a DDA assessment administered, DDA is unable to authorize new or current DDA paid services and will do all of the following:
(1) Explain what happens if you refuse to allow DDA to administer the DDA assessment to you, your respondents, and the person you have identified to receive notice on your behalf per RCW 71A.10.060.
(2) Consult with the assistant attorney general when you have not identified a person to receive notice on your behalf per RCW 71A.10.060 to determine if:
(a) You are able to represent yourself; or
(b) You require a legal representative/guardian.
(3) Terminate existing DDA paid services when they reach their authorized end date.
(4) Provide you notice and appeal rights for a denied or terminated service under WAC 388-825-100 and 388-825-120.
(5) Provide you with information on how to contact DDA in case you later decide you want a DDA assessment administered.
