Written Notification and Parent Consent

The Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) and the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) require education agencies to provide written notification and obtain parent/guardian consent before disclosing information about a student to access Medicaid reimbursement. Written notification must be provided to parent/guardian annually thereafter. The Oregon Department of Education provides templates for both written notification and parent/guardian consent for Early Intervention (EI), Early Childhood Special Education (ECSE), and School Age programs.

• EI/ECSE Notices, Evaluation Forms & Medical Statements
  
• Early Intervention Childhood Special Education and School Age Forms (ages 3-21)
