If you or a loved one has been referred for 245D Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS), the terminology can feel overwhelming. Here’s a plain-language overview of what 245D means and how it works.
What Is 245D?
245D is Minnesota’s licensing framework for home and community-based services, designed to support individuals with developmental disabilities, autism, mental health needs, and behavioral support needs in living safely and independently.
How Services Are Coordinated
245D services are typically coordinated through a case manager as part of an individual’s waiver plan. A provider like BrightFuture Home Care then delivers Individualized Home Supports built around that plan.
Getting Started
If you think 245D services might be a fit, the first step is usually a conversation with a case manager, followed by a referral to a licensed provider. Reach out to our team if you have questions about the process.
