In situations where the Caretaker was penalized for failing to cooperate with CSS in the six months prior to the month of application, the Caretaker must self-attest to cooperation prior to approval of Caretaker Medical coverage. Self-attestation of the agreement to cooperate with CSS in order to receive Caretaker Medical assistance may be provided verbally or in writing.
