Economic Assistance: Emergency assistance program. Eligibility is based on state statute and county guidelines. The amount of assistance granted is established in the County Guidelines and the Federal Poverty Level Guidelines. For all assistance granted, state statute requires that a lien is placed against the individual. Economic assistance is not an on-going program, but is designed to address the immediate need. Due to the attachment of a lien, the individual is encouraged to exhaust all other resources prior to making application with the county. The county will assist in making appropriate referrals and can act as an advocate on the individual's behalf. - Types of assistance provided for qualified applicants: - Rent Assistance Does not help with 1st month's rent or a rental deposit. Assistance is only for those individuals who have received a sheriff served 3-day eviction notice. Having the notice is required. Also, resident must have live in Davison County for at least 60 days. Utilities (disconnect notice required) Emergency Transportation (gas voucher or bus ticket) Emergency Shelter (one night hotel stay) Medical Assistance The county is a resource of last resort and requires that all other resources be exhausted first. Medical assistance is determined by a formula established in state statute. The individual's availability and affordability of health care coverage will be one determining factor of eligibility. All medical services must meet the criteria of medical necessity set by state statue. The county works directly with medical providers and past and current employers in assessing eligibility. The county must approve non-emergency medical procedures prior to the services being performed. The county investigates any potential third-party payee. If the county approves financial assistance, a repayment plan will be established. - Types of assistance provided: Medication Hospital Funeral Assistance Davison County Welfare provides financial assistance for funeral services and burials for qualified individuals.
