Central Application Processing Unit

Who we are

The Central Application Processing (CAP) Unit reviews and processes applications for Medicaid-funded programs such as Home and Community-Based Waiver Programs and State Plan Programs. These programs support Alaskan seniors and people with disabilities. Waiver Programs let people choose between home and community-based services or institutional care if they meet a nursing facility level of care. State Plan Programs support daily and instrumental activities of daily living.

We review and process the following applications:

Home and community based waiver services programs

• Alaskans Living Independently (ALI)
• Adults with Physical and Developmental Disabilities (APDD)
• Children with Complex Medical Conditions (CCMC)

State plan programs
