Adults at Risk

1. Who is eligible for Adult Protective Services?

An Elder Adult-at-Risk is any person in Ozaukee County, age 60 or older, who has experienced, is currently experiencing, or is at risk of experiencing abuse, neglect, neglect by caregiver, self-neglect, financial exploitation, sexual abuse, treatment without consent, or unreasonable confinement or restraint.

An Adult-at-Risk is any adult in Ozaukee County aged 18 through 59 who has a physical or mental condition that substantially impairs his or her ability to care for his/her needs and who has experienced, is currently experiencing, or is at risk of experiencing abuse, neglect, self-neglect, or financial exploitation.

2. How do I know if it’s Abuse or Neglect?

Sadly, Elders and Adults at Risk in Ozaukee County encounter various types of abuse, some more obvious than others. Ozaukee County staff investigate hundreds of referrals every year. All types of abuse are harmful and have serious impacts.

• Self-neglect -Failure of the individual at risk to provide adequate food, shelter, clothing, supervision, medical, or dental care for him or her self. Self-neglect may be related to a change in a person’s medical needs, physical abilities, cognitive functioning, or even emotional well-being.

• Neglect –A caregiver's failure to provide adequate food, shelter, clothing, supervision, medical or dental care. A caregiver is an involved individual who has responsibility for the care of another. This may be a family member, an agency worker, paid or not paid.

• Financial exploitation - Use of an Elder or Adult-at-Risk's money or property without their knowledge, understanding and/or consent. In the majority of situations, the person using the funds is a trusted individual in the person’s life, such as a family member or friend. Financial exploitation that is allowed to continue limits or even eliminates a person’s options for current or future care needs.

• Emotional abuse – Language or behavior that serves no legitimate purpose and is intended to be intimidating, humiliating, threatening, frightening, or otherwise harassing. Emotional abuse can be difficult to identify but is harmful to a person’s well-being.

• Physical abuse - The willful infliction of physical pain, injury, or unreasonable confinement. Physical abuse impacts an individual both physically and emotionally. As with other types of abuse, physical abuse will likely contribute to a decline in an individual’s health.

• Sexual abuse – Forcing someone to watch or be a part of unwanted or nonconsensual sexual contact. Sexual contact requires informed consent from both parties, regardless of relationship status including marriage.

• Treatment without consent - Forcing medication or treatment on an individual without informed consent from the individual. An individual has the right to know what medications they are taking, and may refuse medications unless there is a court order.

3. Should I make a report to APS?

If you are experiencing abuse, neglect or financial exploitation, Ozaukee County Adult Protective Services is here to provide options and support. If you suspect someone is experiencing abuse, neglect, self-neglect or financial exploitation, Speak Up. Individuals in these situations are often reluctant to tell anyone because they are afraid or ashamed. Others may not have the ability to Speak Up for him/herself. All of our county residents deserve to be treated with dignity and respect.

Anyone can voluntarily make a report. No one can be held civilly or criminally liable or found guilty of unprofessional conduct for reporting in good faith. Certain professionals may be Mandated to Report in certain situations, as detailed in Chapters 46.90 and 55.043 of the Wisconsin State Statutes (collapse)

If you:

A: *Are an employee of any entity that is licensed, certified, or approved by, or registered with DHFS OR

*A health care provider as defined in s.155.01(7) OR

*A social worker, professional counselor, or marriage and family therapist certified under ch. 457

And:

B: Have seen the Elder or Adult at Risk in the course of your professional duties

And any of the following are true:

C. *The Individual at risk requested that you make a report OR

*There is reasonable cause to believe that an Individual at Risk is at risk is of imminent risk of serious bodily harm, death, sexual assault, or significant property loss and is unable to make an informed judgment about whether to report the risk OR

*There other Individuals at Risk who are at risk of serious bodily harm, death, sexual assault, or significant property loss by the suspected perpetrator.

If criteria are met for a Mandated Report, you must make a report to the County’s Elder/Adult at Risk agency or to the State’s oversight agency unless, in your professional judgment, you believe it would not be in the individual’s best interest. Your reasons must be documented. Inquire to your employer for additional guidance.

If criteria is not met, reporting is voluntary.

5. What will APS do after they receive my report?: Referrals are reviewed to determine the need or ability of the Department to follow up. Social workers may make home visits in the community to assess a person’s cognitive and physical functioning.

Services are voluntary, except in limited situations as guided by statute.

1. What should I do after a natural disaster strikes?

Although each disaster situation is unique, there are some general guidelines you should follow:

Check your food and water supplies before using them. Foods that require refrigeration may be spoiled if electrical power has been off for an extended period of time. Also, do not eat food that has come into contact with flood waters.
Do not drive unless absolutely necessary.
Do not spread rumors about the disaster situation.
Do not take lanterns, torches or lighted cigarettes into buildings that have been flooded or otherwise damaged since there may be leaking gas lines or flammable material present.
Follow the advice and instructions of your local government authorities on ways to help yourself and your community recover from disaster.
If any of your electrical appliances are wet, first turn off the main power switch in your house, then unplug the wet appliance. Allow the wet appliance to fully dry, and then plug in the appliance, and then turn on the main power switch. (never perform these steps if you are wet or in standing water.) If the fuses blow when the electrical power is restored, turn off the main power switch and contact your utility company.
If you smell gas in your house, immediately exit the house and notify the gas company and the fire department from a neighbor's house. Do not re-enter the home until you are told it's safe.
Stay away from disaster areas. Sightseeing will only interfere with first aid or rescue work.
Stay away from fallen or damaged electrical wires, which may still be dangerous. (Consider all wires to be dangerous, including telephone wires.)
Use extreme caution when entering or working in buildings that may have been damaged or weakened by a disaster, as they may collapse without warning. Also, there may be gas leaks or electrical short circuits in the building.

For questions, contact Emergency Management.

2. What do the various weather watches and warnings mean that are issued by the National Weather Service?

The National Weather Service (NWS) disseminates watches and warnings to help citizens, businesses, and visitors prepare for severe weather. The following are several weather statements released by the NWS:

Blizzard Warning - This means the NWS expects considerable snowfall with temperatures below freezing, and winds of at least 35 miles per hour. Expect potentially life threatening wind chill, deep drifts, and blinding snow.
Flash Flood or Flood Warning - This means flooding has been reported or is imminent. Take precautions now.
Flash flood or Flood Watch - This means flooding is possible in the designated area. If you live in this area, remain on alert and monitor the weather.
Freezing Rain / Drizzle - This means rain is likely to freeze as soon as it strikes the ground, putting a coating of ice or glaze on highways.
Thunderstorm Warning - This means severe thunderstorms are occurring. The dangers that can accompany a severe thunderstorm include: flash floods, lightning, straight-line winds and large hail.
Thunderstorm Watch - This means a storm of significant strength may develop producing large hail or damaging winds.
Tornado Warning - This means a tornado has been either visually sighted or spotted on weather radar. If a tornado warning is issued for your area, take shelter immediately.
Tornado Watch - This means that tornadoes are possible in the watch area. If you live in this area you should remain alert for approaching storms and monitor the weather situation.
Urban and Small Stream Advisory - This means flooding of small streams, streets, and low-lying areas such as railroad underpasses and urban storm drains, is occurring. In flood situations, know where high ground is, abandon stalled cars, never attempt to outrun a flood in your vehicle, and do not drive through flooded areas.
Winter Storm Warning- - This means severe winter conditions have begun or are about to begin in the warning area. A winter storm usually means snowfall of 6 inches or more in a 12 hour period, or 8 inches or more in a 24 hour period. Stay indoors!
Winter Storm Watch - This means severe winter conditions such as heavy snow or ice are possible within the next day or two in the watch area. Start to prepare now.

For questions, contact Emergency Management.

3. What should I do if threatened by a tornado?

Windblown debris poses the greatest risk of injury or death from tornadoes. Stay away from windows and avoid the inside corners of a building. Do not open windows because this causes deadly debris to enter! You can be safe by following these tips:

In a High Rise Building - Go to an interior room or hallway on the lowest floor possible. Do not use elevators.
In a Mobile Home - Seek shelter in a sturdy building. If one is not available, crouch low in a dry ditch, ravine, or culvert and cover your head with your hands.
In schools, nursing homes, shopping centers, and hospitals--Stay away from open spaces with wide, free-span roofs such as dining halls, gymnasiums, and auditoriums. Go to predesignated shelter areas.
In Your Home - The safest location is in a basement. If you do not have a basement, seek shelter on the lowest floor in an interior small room or hallway (e.g., a closet or bathroom without windows).

For questions, contact Emergency Management.

4. What is a NOAA weather radio?: A NOAA weather radio is a dedicated radio enabling the listener to receive real time weather information provided by the National Weather Service. The information provided includes current weather conditions, local forecasts, travel and recreational forecasts, as well as climatology data. Weather messages are repeated every 4 to 6 minutes and are updated every 1 to 3 hours. (Note: updates occur more frequently in rapidly changing or hazardous weather conditions.)

During severe weather, live broadcasts are made to notify listeners of potential hail, flooding, tornadoes, blizzard conditions, and other weather warnings. NOAA Weather Radio broadcasts can usually be heard as far as 40 miles from a transmitter. The latest feature added to the NOAA Weather Radio allows a listener the option of hearing warnings for specific areas, typically a county-area. These tone-alert radios can be purchased at many electronic stores, however it is a good idea to "call around" to confirm which stores actually sell the NOAA radios.

If you are surrounded by tall buildings in a city or you are located in a mountain valley, a good quality antenna may be required for reliable reception. For questions, please contact Emergency Management.

5. How should I dispose of Household Hazardous Waste?: Please visit our resources page for a list of documents pertaining to common household hazardous waste. Veolia's Port Washington facility will also accept some household hazardous waste. For more information, please visit their website.

Juvenile Justice

Show All Answers

1. What is delinquency supervision?: Delinquency supervision is managed by social workers through the Ozaukee County Department of Human Services - Juvenile Court Services Unit. It involves the protection of citizens from crime, holding youth accountable for their behavior and provision of treatment / services to build competencies. Social Workers oversee the behavior of juveniles in their home, school and community environments (supervision is similar to adult probation.) If you have any questions, please contact Human Services.

2. Why do I have to come to Human Services for being alleged delinquent?: Chapter 938 of the Wisconsin Statutes specifies county human services departments are required to provide Intake and Disposition services to youth and families involved in the juvenile delinquency system. If you have any questions, please contact Human Services.

3. What is on-call intake?: Ozaukee County Department of Human Services - Juvenile Court Services Unit provides intake services 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, for the purpose of screening juveniles taken into custody and not released. Intake workers determine whether a juvenile should be held in juvenile detention (secure or non-secure). Law enforcement does not have direct authority in the placement of juvenile's in detention as they have with adults in jail determination. Juvenile detention must be authorized by and intake worker.

If you have any questions, please contact Human Services.

4. Why can a 17 year old be charged in adult court on a criminal offence, but be kept in juvenile court for missing school?: In Wisconsin, youths age 17 are considered adults for criminal offenses. They are charged as adults and criminal proceedings are in adult court. Truancy is not a criminal offense and would fall under the jurisdiction of Juvenile in Need of Protection or Services (JIPS). All court proceedings are in juvenile court. Attendance in school is mandatory until the age of 18 by state law.

If you have any questions, please contact Human Services.

5. How does adjudication as a juvenile affect a juvenile's record / future?: As a juvenile, a youth's criminal record is considered confidential. In applying for employment it is not required that a juvenile indicate on a job application that they have been adjudicated (convicted) for a felony or any other offense. A juvenile should be aware that their juvenile record can be used for court matters when the juvenile becomes an adult and there are certain circumstances in which the juvenile's criminal record may be attainable by the United States government / military. The United States military typically requires signed releases of information to inquire about juvenile delinquency records. If you have any questions, please contact Human Services.

6. What happens if a juvenile and his / her parents decline to be involved in an Intake Inquiry Interview?: Should a youth decline involvement in an Intake Inquiry Interview, the juvenile referral (police report) will be submitted to the District Attorney's office for review without an intake assessment. The District Attorney's office will make a determination of possible prosecution in juvenile court. If you have any questions, please contact Human Services.

7. How can parents be held responsible / liable for damages?: Per state law, parent(s) may be liable for damages to property or loss of property, as well as personal injury to a victim due to the actions of their son or daughter. The amount of recovery from parent(s) depends upon which statute applies to the delinquent act. If you have questions, please contact Human Services.

8. How do juveniles get placed outside of their home?: The placement of juveniles outside of their home requires a circuit court order. Ozaukee County Department of Human Services only recommends placement outside of the parental home when the welfare of the juvenile and/or the community warrants it. Juveniles are not placed in alternate care without substantial attempts at retaining a child in their parental home through the use of available services, resources, and treatment. Ozaukee County Department of Human Services promotes a community based approach to juvenile delinquency.

If you have any questions, please contact Human Services.

9. Can a juvenile be placed into a boot camp?: Currently, there are no boot camps in the State of Wisconsin that Ozaukee County Department of Human Services can force a youth into unless the youth is adjudicated delinquent and needs a juvenile corrections placement. Currently there is a short form of a boot camp at Lincoln Hills Boys School in Irma, WI. Lincoln Hills Boys School is a juvenile corrections facility. On a voluntary basis, youth can enter the Challenge Academy in Fort McCoy, WI.

If you have any questions, please contact Human Services.

10. Can a juvenile be emancipated in Wisconsin?: In the State of Wisconsin, emancipation is not available at any age. If you have questions, please contact Human Services.

11. How do victims get restitution?: Victims should receive notice of juvenile hearings and they have the right to make a statement to the court regarding their circumstances. Victims receive a Victim Impact Statement form in the mail. Through the use of the form, victims indicate how this situation has affected them, and they can indicate a restitution amount for any personal injury, property damage or loss. Through juvenile supervision, whether informal or formal, juveniles will be required to pay restitution to the victim(s).

Parents may also be required to pay restitution for the actions of their child. Juveniles have the length of their juvenile supervision to pay the requested restitution. Victims do have the right to pursue the restitution in Civil Court. Juveniles are required to pay restitution to the Ozaukee County Department of Human Services. The collected restitution is sent to the victim.

If you have questions, please contact Human Services.

Land & Water Management

Show All Answers

1. Are there any funds or grants available to help pay for replacing my failed system?

There is a Private Sewage System Replacement or Rehabilitation Grant Program, the Wisconsin Fund, that may help pay for a portion of the costs. To be eligible for the program the following conditions must be met:

The house or small commercial establishment served and the system being replaced must have been in place and in use by July 1, 1978.
The county must have issued a violation correction order compelling the replacement of the system.
The house must be owner occupied (it cannot be a rental property). A small commercial establishment must be operated by the owner.
For a residence the maximum household income cannot exceed $45,000. The gross revenue for a small commercial establishment cannot exceed $362,500 and the daily wastewater flow must be less than 5,000 gallons per day.

The maximum grant available varies with the size and type of system being installed to meet the minimum code requirements.

2. How do I get a sanitary permit to install a septic system for a new residence?

The first step is to have a soil / site evaluation conducted by a certified soil tester (soil / site evaluator). This was formerly referred to as a "perk test", but is now known as a "detailed soil morphological evaluation." This test involves digging at least 3 soil pits in a triangular shape so that the soil inside the triangle should be very similar to the soil observed in the test pits. The soil test identifies a suitable area to install a private onsite waste disposal system and determines the amount (inches) of suitable soil underneath the system.
The second step is to have a plumber, engineer, or system designer design a private onsite wastewater treatment system (POWTS), formerly called a septic system, based on the findings of the soil test and the proposed use of the property. The use of the property is important because a residence will not have the same size system requirements as a commercial use and a 4 bedroom residence will not have the same size system requirements as a 2 bedroom residence. At this point you should also discuss the system sizing so the system can accommodate anticipated future additions to the residence.
State Plan Approval is required before the county can issue any sanitary permit for a mound, at-grade, in-ground pressure, or holding tank system. The plumber, engineer, or system designer takes care of this step for the property owner. The length of time to receive State Plan Approval varies by season and the workload of the state. It can range from several days to several weeks. If the system was designed by an engineer or system designer you will need to decide on a plumber to install the system. A system designed by a plumber is required to be installed by that plumber.
After the plans are approved by the state, the installing plumber will apply for the sanitary permit at the county level. Typically the county review and action on a sanitary permit application will take less than 1 week.
The town, village, city, or county can now issue the building / zoning / land use permit authorizing construction of the proposed new structure.

3. Is a septic evaluation required to sell my property?: There is no state law or county ordinance requiring any private onsite wastewater treatment system (POWTS) to be evaluated before the sale of any property. However, it is often a requirement of the lending institution that will hold the mortgage for the buyer. The lending institution often resells the mortgage on the secondary market and a passing evaluation is usually required for a lending institution outside of the area to be interested in the mortgage.

In addition, often the new buyer will make an evaluation a condition of the purchase even if there is no lending institution. An evaluation provides some assurances that the system will not fail immediately after purchase. Replacing a failing POWTS is expensive.

Currently, there is no state law or county ordinance establishing the procedures to evaluate a system for the sale of property or establishing credentials for those qualified / able to evaluate systems in this situation.

4. Is maintenance required on my septic system?: Yes, all systems have a maintenance requirement. At least once every 3 years the septic tank and pump chamber, if applicable, must be pumped by a licensed pumping service and a report filed with the Environmental Health Department. Private onsite wastewater treatment system (POWTS) installed after July 1, 2000, have an Operation and Maintenance Manual, which dictates the type and frequency of maintenance to be performed upon the system. Failing to properly maintain the system can lead to premature system failure.

The department sends out a notice with a report form to everyone with a system meeting the specified requirements. If the owner does not file the report, as required, we are compelled to take action for compliance. This can include legal action and fines if the report is not filed.

5. What can I do to keep my septic system (mound, conventional, in-ground pressure or at-grade) working?: Browse through "To Avoid Problems" for a list of the top 10 things you can do to keep your system operating at the highest level possible.

6. What can I plant or place over my septic system?: Plant only grasses and shallow rooted vegetation. Roots from trees and bushes can clog or damage the absorption field. Do not dig into, build over, or cover the drainfield with a hard surface such as asphalt or concrete.

Grass will remove excess moisture and will allow more oxygen into the soil and into the system. Oxygen in the soil helps reduce the growth of anaerobic (without oxygen) bacteria that create a slime growth that can plug the soil pores and lead to a failing system. For mounds and at-grade systems the Small Scale Waste Management Project has a brochure, available from this department, titled "Locating and Landscaping the Mound System of On-Site Waste Disposal" that may be of assistance.

7. What do I need to do if I have a failing system that must be replaced?

The first step is to have a soil test conducted by a certified soil tester (soil / site evaluator). This was formerly referred to as a "perk test", but is now known as a "detailed soil morphological evaluation." This test involves digging at least 3 soil pits in a triangular shape so that the soil inside the triangle should be very similar to the soil observed in the test pits. The soil test identifies a suitable area to install a private onsite waste disposal system and determines the amount (inches) of suitable soil underneath the system.
The second step is to have a plumber, engineer or system designer design a private onsite wastewater treatment system (POWTS), formerly called a septic system, based on the findings of the soil test and the proposed use of the property.

Medicare Part D

Show All Answers

1. What is Medicare Part D?: Medicare Part D is a federal program that provides prescription drug coverage for Medicare participants. The program began January 1, 2006.

2. Who is eligible for Part D benefits?: If you receive healthcare coverage under Medicare Part A or B, then you are eligible for Medicare Part D, regardless of whether you receive Medicare as a senior or as a disabled individual.

3. Who will provide my prescription drug coverage?: Medicare Part D prescription drug coverage will be made available through private drug plans that are approved by the federal government. Most of the plans will be offered by private insurance companies or health maintenance organizations (HMOs).

Comparative plan information including covered medications, costs, and coverage areas is available on the Medicare website. You will be able to contact a plan provider directly to learn detailed information about their Part D plans.
For directions on using the Medicare's plan comparison tool, please review our instructional guide.

4. Is participation required?: No, Medicare Part D is a voluntary program. However, you may be penalized for enrolling late. If you participate in Medicare Part A or B and you do not enroll in a Part D plan when you first become eligible, but decide to enroll in Part D later, then you may have to pay an additional charge with your monthly Part D premiums.

5. How do I know if I will have to pay a late enrollment penalty?: If you already have a prescription drug plan that has coverage that is as good as or better than Medicare Part D coverage, then you may delay your Part D enrollment without risking a penalty. If you have prescription drug coverage through another source such as SeniorCare, Medicare supplemental (Medigap) insurance, or a former employer, then you should receive information on your coverage and how it compares to Part D coverage each fall by September 31. If you do not receive this information, you should contact your current prescription drug plan provider and ask for written information on how your current coverage compares to Part D coverage.

6. How do I sign up for a Medicare Part D plan?: If you are already a Medicare participant, you join Part D by selecting a Part D plan and enrolling directly with the plan's private provider, not the federal government. Each private plan has its own enrollment process.

As of the fall 2011, it is now possible to enroll online through the Medicare websites plan comparison tool.

7. When can I enroll in a Part D plan?: Most current Medicare participants may enroll in a Part D plan any time between October 15 and December 7 each year.

Individuals who are not currently receiving Medicare benefits, but who will soon qualify for Medicare, have an "initial enrollment period" that begins 3 months before the month in which they become eligible (for most people this is the month in which they turn 65), the month they become eligible, and the 3 months following their eligibility month (7 months total).

If you do not choose to enroll in Part D during your initial enrollment period, you can still enroll in Part D plan, but only between October 15 and December 7 each year, which is the "annual coordinated election period." you may also have to pay a late enrollment penalty as described in the "Is participation required?" question above.

8. Can I change Part D Plans?: You may only change to a different Part D plan between October 15 and December 7 each year.

9. I'm married, do I apply with my spouse, or do I apply by myself?: If you are simply enrolling in a Medicare Part D plan, then you enroll by yourself. Your spouse will enroll separately. However, if you want to apply for Medicare Part D "extra help" program (also known as the Low Income Subsidy), you may apply as a couple.

Extra help is a program designed to help limited means Medicare participants with their Medicare Part D costs. There is an application process for the Medicare Part D extra help that is separate from Medicare Part D plan enrollment. Not all Medicare participants will be eligible for the extra help program, but all Medicare beneficiaries may participate in Medicare Part D. For more information on the Medicare Part D extra help program, see "What if I cannot afford my Part D costs?".

10. Which drugs will Medicare Part D Plans cover?

It depends on the particular Part D drug plan the Medicare beneficiary chooses. The government does not require every Part D plan to offer the same list of drugs. Instead, each drug plan will design a formulary, which is a list of drugs the plan will cover. All formularies must include coverage of certain drugs commonly prescribed to Medicare beneficiaries.

Although plan providers have a great deal of freedom in choosing which drugs to cover, the law prohibits coverage of certain categories of drugs including, but not limited to be following:

Barbiturates
Benzodiazepines
Drugs that can be paid for through Medicare Part A or B
Drugs used for weight loss, weight gain, or anorexia
Nonprescription drugs
Prescription vitamins except prenatal vitamins and fluoride preparations

11. Can a Part D Plan Provider change which drugs they cover?: Yes, a Part D plan provider may remove drugs and change a plan formulary (the list of prescription medications covered under a plan) any time from March to mid-November. From mid-November to February, a plan may not remove any drugs from its formulary or change a plan's cost structure. Throughout the remainder of the year, plan providers must notify affected participants in writing about changes to their drug plan 60 days before the changes go into effect.

12. What if I need a drug that is not covered by my Part D plan?: When shopping for a Part D plan, you need to examine each Part D plan available in your area to find the plan that best meets your prescription needs. Unfortunately, you may discover that no plan covers all the drugs that you need. Moreover, you may choose a plan based on your current medication needs, but your health conditions and medication needs might change after enrolling in the plan.

If you face these types of difficult situations, you will need to consult a physician to determine whether your plan's formulary (list of covered drugs) includes an alternative, equally effective medication. If no alternative medications are appropriate, you may choose to request that your plan provider make an exception and cover a drug not included on your plan's formulary. Every plan will have a formal exceptions process that must be described in documents provided to you when you enroll in your Part D plan.

13. Where can I purchase prescription drugs if I enroll in Part D?: You will be able to purchase your covered prescription drugs through pharmacy networks established by your plan's provider. You should try to choose a plan that includes your preferred pharmacy in the plan's pharmacy network. If you purchase prescription drugs from a pharmacy that is not in your plan's pharmacy network, then your plan will not help pay for that drug.

This last point is worth emphasizing. Some plans may only provide pharmacy networks in their own region or only in select areas outside their regions. If you frequently travel outside of Wisconsin, you will need to plan your drug purchases carefully because your drug purchases in other states may not be covered. If you are one of these individuals, you may want to check to see if a Medicare Part D plan with national coverage is your best option.

14. How much will Part D cost?: It depends. Under Part D, participant payments for covered prescription drugs, also called out-of-pocket costs, will vary according to the drugs used, medication needs, and income level. You will likely pay a monthly premium for Part D coverage as well as a deductible and co-insurance. Each drug plan can create its own cost structure, put plan providers must follow a cost framework established by the government.

15. What can I expect to pay for my Part D Plan?: For the standard plan, the average monthly premium will be around $35 along with a $310 deductible, plus co-insurance and a gap in coverage. Some of the particular plans may differ in the costs they require for their participants.

16. What is the difference between a co-pay and co-insurance?: Co-insurance is when you pay a percentage for the cost of your prescription (i.e. 25% of each prescription). A co-pay is a set dollar amount that you pay for each prescription (i.e. $5 for each prescription).

17. Are the Part D Plans comprehensive or are there gaps in coverage?: It depends upon the particular plan, but according to a model presented by the government, there will be gaps in Part D coverage. Under the federal government's Part D cost model, a plan may charge you a deductible of $310 in 2011.

Once you have met the deductible or if the plan does not charge a deductible, you enter into what is known as the co-insurance phase. You now will pay either 25% of the cost of your drugs or an amount that is based on a tier structure. You remain in this phase until the full cost of your drugs reaches the amount of $2,840. This amount is calculated based on the full cost of your drugs, not just your out-of-pocket costs. In other words, what you and the insurance company has paid.

When the full cost of $2,840 is met, you now go into the gap. This gap in coverage is commonly referred to as the "doughnut hole." because of the recent reform in Health Care, in 2011 you will no longer have to pay the full cost of your drugs. There will be a 50% cost reduction on brand named drugs and a 3% reduction on the cost of generic drugs in this phase.

Once you have spent a total $4,550 out-of-pocket, the plan pays 95% and you pay 5%. This last part is referred to as "catastrophic coverage." It's important to note that these figures only include the cost of prescriptions covered by your drug plan. If your Part D plan does not include a particular prescription on its list of covered medications (known as a formulary) and you purchase that prescription, you will pay the total cost of the prescription and that amount does not count towards your Part D coverage limits.

The government calls this model the "standard plan." Providers will be allowed to make plan that are a little different from the standard plan, so your particular options may look different. It is also worth noting that if you qualify for "extra help" (the Part D financial assistance program), the government covers a significant portion of your Part D plan costs and you will not be required to make the same payments as other Part D standard plan participants.

18. What if I can not afford my Part D costs?: Help is available. Some Part D participants who have limited income and assets may receive help paying for their Medicare Part D drug costs. This assistance is known as "extra help." The Social Security Administration (SSA) will be mailing applications for the Medicare Part D extra help to individuals that may be eligible for this program. Anyone may also request an application for extra help or get answers to questions about this assistance program by calling SSA at toll-free 1-800-772-1213. The application for extra help is also available online at the SSA website. As of 2012, application will only be taken over the phone or online.

19. Will the rich pay more than the poor?: Very poor people qualify for a financial assistance program called extra help. Moderately poor and rich people will pay the marketed costs of the Medicare Part D plans. For more information about the likely cost structure for the standard Part D plan, see above "Are the Part D plans comprehensive or are there gaps in coverage?".

20. Why does it cost so much?: Medicare Part D is a complex, huge program, but it will provide help to many seniors. The current cost structure was designed by members of the United States Congress. To comment on this program, contact your Congressional representatives.

21. What if I am currently participating in a Medicare Savings Program such as SLMB, QMB, SLMB Plus, or a program that helps pay Medicare premiums?: If you are currently participating in a Medicare Savings Program such as QMB (Qualified Medicare Beneficiary), SLMB (Specified Low-Income Medicare Beneficiary), or SLMB+ (Specified Low-Income Medicare Beneficiary Plus) then you are automatically eligible for Medicare Part D extra help program.

Automatic enrollment will only happen if you currently are not participating in a plan. If you are currently in a plan, you must check to see if the plan participates in the Low-Income Subsidy program. If not, you may then change to one of these plans.

22. What if I am currently receiving prescription drug coverage through SeniorCare?: Currently, we do not know if SeniorCare will change after January 1, 2012. However, if you currently rely on SeniorCare and your term is about to expire this fall, you should sign up again so that you do not have a gap in coverage. Even if you do want to enroll in Medicare Part D, the earliest you can begin receiving Medicare Part D coverage is January 1, 2012. Make sure you do not go without coverage and re-enroll in SeniorCare.

23. If I currently receive prescription drug benefits through my Veterans Benefits, should I apply for Medicare Part D?: You have the option of enrolling in Medicare Part. However, you may want to stick with your Veterans Benefits because the VA coverage may be better than Part D coverage and is considered to be Creditable Coverage. Creditable coverage protects a Medicare beneficiary from a late enrollment penalty if they decide to enroll in Medicare Part D after their initial enrollment period.

Veterans Benefits are very complex, and we highly recommend that you consult with your County Veterans Service Officer, who can guide you through the process of accessing the benefits.

Reporting Child Abuse / Neglect

Show All Answers

1. What is child abuse and neglect?: Child abuse is the physical, sexual, or emotional maltreatment of a child (ages 0 to 18) by a parent, family member, other caregiver, or non-caregiver. Physical abuse will involve cuts, broken or fractured bones, burns, internal injuries, or severe and frequent bruising inflicted on a child by other than accidental means. Sexual abuse will involve sexual intercourse, other sexual contact, or exploitation. Emotional damage means harm to a child's psychological or intellectual functioning, exhibited to a severe degree.

Child neglect is the failure of a parent or other caregiver to provide necessary care (including supervision), food, clothing, shelter, and medical care - for reasons other than poverty - so as to seriously endanger the physical health of a child.

2. What should I do if I believe that a child is abused or neglected?

You should report your concerns to Ozaukee County Department of Human Services if you believe that a child (a boy or girl, ages 0-18) has been:

abused (physically, sexually, or emotionally)
is at risk or abuse or neglect
neglected (physically or emotionally)

3. How do I report concerns?: Contact the Child Protection Access Unit, Monday through Friday, from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. via phone at 262-238-8200 or 262-284-8200. After 5 p.m. on weekdays, holidays, and weekends call your local police nonemergency dispatch.

4. What if I'm not sure I should report?: Please report, a child's health could be in danger! We at Human Services cannot protect children unless they are brought to our attention.

5. Will the family know that I reported?: State law protects reporter confidentiality. We will not disclose your name to the individuals whom you report. You should not be afraid of reprisals if you report. If you have more questions, please contact Human Services.

6. What will happen when I report child protection concerns?: A social service specialist will write up your report. They will need to know the names, ages, and addresses of family members. They will need to hear information about the suspected abuse or neglect. Please be prepared to provide information. The more information that you share, the better subsequent agency decision-making will be.

A supervisor will review the report and decide if the information reported is sufficient to merit an investigation based on statuary definitions of abuse / neglect. The supervisor will make a response time decision once a decision is made to open a case. Response time is determined by several factors and level of imminent danger. Cases are designated a response of 24 hours or less, or 2-5 days.

If you have question, please contact Human Services.

7. What information is needed when I file a report?

Child Protection Investigative Standards for the State of Wisconsin indicate that when a referral is made we need to gather the following information from the reporter:

All household members' names and relationships, ages, address, phone numbers, schools, places of employment
Alleged maltreatment, current and past, and circumstances of the maltreatment
Description of the child, highlighting current conditions and vulnerability
Description of the family, highlighting general functioning, current stresses and how the family might respond to intervention
Description of the parents, highlighting individual functioning and parenting practices
Names and contact information for other people with information
Reporter's name, relationship to family, motivation and source of information, if possible
Whether the child is a Native American Child, as defined by the Indian Child Welfare Act

If you have questions, please contact Human Services.

8. What will happen when the social worker sees the child and family?: Social workers will interview the children and family members regarding the maltreatment concerns. They will assess child safety, child maltreatment, risk factors, and family strengths / needs. They will make determinations as to whether maltreatment as defined in state statues has occurred. They will make decisions as to what sort of services might benefit the children and family.

9. Will the child be removed from their family?: Ozaukee County Department of Human Services strives to keep families together. We serve most children and families in the family home. In cases where there is a safety concern, it may be necessary to remove children from their home. Court action is necessary whenever a child is removed from the parental home. In removal situations, Wisconsin State Statues guide child protection actions by setting forth legal responsibilities for case practice.

If you have questions, please contact Human Services.

10. Will I learn the outcome?

You will receive follow-up correspondence if you are a mandated reporter. Mandated reporters are professionals who are required by law to report suspected maltreatment. The letter will provide basic information about the intervention only, as state law provides for family confidentiality.

The social worker will not write you if you are a non-mandated reporter as state law prohibits this breach of family confidentiality. A mandated reporter is a:

Acupuncturist
Alcohol or other drug counselor
Audiologist
Child care worker
Chiropractor
Clergy
Coroner
Court-appointed special advocate
Day care provider
Dentist
Dietitian
Emergency medical technician
First responder

Physical therapist and their assistants
Physician
Police or law enforcement officer
Professional counselor
Public assistance worker (which includes a financial and employment planner)

School counselor
School teacher
Social worker
Speech-language pathologist

If you have any questions, please contact Human Services.
