C.M.
v. DPW – Cmwlth. Court – March 11, 2015 – unreported memorandum decision
TSS
services are medical services administered by the Department, not educational
services subject to administration by the State Board of Education or the
Department of Education and governed by regulations promulgated pursuant to the
IDEA. Therefore, the provision of TSS services is subject to the medical
necessity standard established in relation to the MAP program rather than the
IDEA’s least restrictive environment standard.
