The Resource Directory for Head Injury and Other Conditions was first developed by Ruth
Azeredo and the Traumatic Neurologic Injury Advisory Council and other partners in 2007.
The original Directory was reviewed by individuals selected for their expertise and differing
perspectives representing patients and families, the Oklahoma State Department of Health
(OSDH), Oklahoma State Department of Education, Department of Mental Health and
Substance Abuse, Department of Human Services, hospitals, and other organizations and
agencies. It has been updated in 2011 to reflect current resource availability.

Introduction and Background of Head Injury
Purpose and Use of Resources and Services Directory
The intent of the directory is to help individuals, families, and providers know what resources
and services are available in the state of Oklahoma for head injury and other conditions, and how
they may seek referral or obtain them directly. The need for such a document became readily
apparent while responding to the many inquiries and requests for information related to head
injury, immediate and long term services, and disability-related social and employment issues.
Although developed for persons who sustained a brain injury and their families, the directory is
useful for persons with other conditions, persons with disabilities, and the general population.
The agencies, organizations, and the broad array of health and social services citizens may need
are included in the directory. The services are organized by the phases or continuum of care that
patients and families may encounter following an injury event, from prehospital to acute and
rehabilitative care to the broad array of community life services.
Substantial information is devoted to specific populations such as children, Native Americans,
veterans, and the organizations that provide basic health and social services to improve daily
living. The accessibility and availability of services in Oklahoma vary by geographic region,
resources, and the distribution of professionals and other providers. The resource needs of
children 18 years and younger were highlighted in a recent follow up study of children with head
injury which helped to determine need for short- and long-term rehabilitation, information about
special education, and transitional services to higher education and work.
The directory was first completed in 2006 after review and input by colleagues and members of
the Advisory Council and Task Force. The Directory Committee assisted with distribution of
materials. Information in the directory is updated periodically and includes all aspects of care
and the services that may be needed and requested by persons with traumatic brain injury and
other conditions. Because each individual, family, or provider wants information specific to their
area(s) of need, individual sections may be requested by calling the Injury Prevention Service
(405/271-3430) or information may be downloaded from the IPS web page
(http://ips.health.ok.gov). If there are further questions after reviewing the information,
individuals may contact the Traumatic Brain Injury Program.
Contact information for direction listings is subject to change.

Definition Of Selected Terms
Abbreviated Injury Scale (AIS) – Abbreviated injury scale (AIS) scoring was developed by the
Association of Automotive Medicine, initially for the purpose of assessing survival following
motor vehicle crashes. It is a standardized system for categorizing injury type and severity.
Although AIS is based on anatomical injury, it includes physiologic measures as injury
descriptors, such as occurrence and length of loss of consciousness, amount of bleeding, etc. AIS
1 is not consistent with the definition of traumatic brain injury. AIS 2 is moderate injury. AIS is
serious injury. AIS 4 severe injury, and AIS 5 critical injury. AIS 6 is a nonsalvageable injury.
Americans with Disability Act (ADA) – The ADA is a federal act that was passed in 1990 to
prohibit discrimination against persons with disabilities, including brain injury, in the areas of:
• Public accommodations such as building and sidewalk accessibility
• Employment
• Transportation
• State and Local Government Services
• Telecommunications
Assault – An act of violence resulting in injury.
Case Management – Facilitating the access of a patient to appropriate medical, rehabilitation
and support programs, and coordination of the delivery of services. This role may involve liaison
with various professionals and agencies, advocacy on behalf of the patient, and arranging for
purchase of services where no appropriate programs are available.
Cognitive Ability – The ability to accumulate and retain new knowledge.
Cognitive Rehabilitation – Therapy which helps persons in the management of problems in
perception, memory, thinking, attention, judgment and problem solving. Skills are practiced and
strategies devised/taught to improve function and compensate for deficits. The interventions are
based on an assessment and understanding of the person’s brain-behavior deficits. Services are
provided by qualified practitioners.
Community re-entry/integration – Services to prepare client to enter community knowing
where and how needed services may be obtained.
Community Resources – Public or private agencies, schools or programs offering services to
the public. They are usually funded by government agencies, community initiatives, donations
and fees.
Community Skills – Those abilities needed to function independently in the community. They
may include: telephone skills, money management, pedestrian skills, use of public transportation,
meal planning and cooking.
Resources & Services Directory for Head Injury, Injury Prevention Service, OSDH 2
Compensation Technique – A method of working around a functional impairment by using
techniques designed to help a person with a disability overcome the impairment (for example, for
memory impairment, a person uses a calendar or notebook to record information).
Competitive Employment – Work in the competitive labor market that is performed on a full-time
or part-time basis in an integrated setting; and for which the individual is compensated at or
above, but not less than, the minimum wage.
Computed Tomography – CT scanning is the most common imaging modality used initially for
the diagnosis and medical management of head-injured patients. CT scan evaluates presence or
absence of intracranial hemorrhage and osseous injuries, and has relatively low cost.
Day program – A non-residential program of services intended to increase the functional ability
of the consumer through therapeutic intervention and supervised activities. These services facilitate
community integration.
Depression - A state of disorder marked by sadness, inactivity and self-depreciation.
Disability (Many medical, economic, and social definitions) - Limitation in performing tasks,
activities and roles in the manner or within the range considered normal for persons of the same
age, gender, culture, and education. The expression of a physical, mental, or sensory limitation in
a social context; the gap between a person's capabilities and the demands of the environment.
Includes developmental disability, and disability related to chronic disease, injury and secondary
conditions.
Disability Rating Scale (DRS) – The DRS evaluates the person on 8 categories of disability and
scores his or her functioning areas that include, among others:
• Level of arousal, awareness, and responsiveness
• Cognitive skills needed for self-care activities
• Dependence on others
• Psychosocial adaptability, which includes flexibility and the ability to adapt to different
people and situations. The highest possible score is 30 points. In this scale, a lower score
is better.
Evaluation in a Workshop Setting – A process whereby the client’s work potential is assessed
in a controlled area using simulated or actual job tasks to assess ability to relate to demands of
the work environment and perform adequately. Has the following characteristics: 1) client may
not be paid; 2) client is exposed to tasks on which performance can be assessed; 3) client’s
performance is supervised and evaluated in coordination with the evaluation staff; and 4)
existence of established evaluation program.
Emergency medical services system – An organized system that provides personnel, facilities
and equipment for the coordinated delivery of health care services in a specific geographical area
under emergent conditions.
Resources & Services Directory for Head Injury, Injury Prevention Service, OSDH 3
Epidemiology – The study of the distribution and determinants of health and disease (including
injuries) in populations.
• It is a component of public health and constitutes the scientific methods used to reason
about the cause and natural course of disease or conditions.
• Epidemiologic research incorporates statistical techniques with an understanding of
biological, behavioral and social mechanisms important in disease occurrence and spread.
• Utilizes group/aggregate data; numerator-denominator oriented.
Epidemiologic Measures
Rate Measures the risk of acquiring the injury/disease (incidence) in a certain time interval:
Numerator (New cases in a time interval)
Denominator (Population at risk of developing disease or being injured at the
beginning of the time interval.
Surveillance The ongoing systematic collection, analysis and interpretation of health/injury data
needed to plan, implement, and evaluate programs.
Incidence Measures risk of disease or injury in a population.
Prevalence Measures the burden of disease or injury within a population
Evaluation On-The-Job – Has the characteristics: 1) the client is not necessarily paid; 2) it is
primarily for the client’s benefit; 3) it will not necessarily result in employment; 4) the employer
does not experience immediate gain; 5) the client does not displace or fill any vacant worker
slots; and, the client’s performance is supervised and evaluated by the employer and/or the
evaluation staff. The client is given the opportunity to experience the specific requirements
necessary to do the specific job in an actual job setting.
Follow up – Vocational – Supportive assistance during the initial stage of a new
program or job placement and which may determine to what degree the past and present
program is adequate in meeting client needs and/or ascertain the readiness of clients to benefit
from new programs.
Family Services – Services provided by a social worker or counselor to assist family (and patient)
counseling in coping with the particular disease/condition of a client.
Functional Assessment – An evaluation that determines how well a person with a disability can
perform specific job-related duties. The assessment may be done at a mock job setting or in an
actual job setting during a period of several days.
Functional Limitation – Any restriction or lack of ability to perform an activity in the manner or
within the range considered normal for a human being, which is chronic or permanent in nature,
and/or which is judged to be a cultural, social, economic, and/or environmental disadvantage.
Resources & Services Directory for Head Injury, Injury Prevention Service, OSDH 4
Glasgow Coma Score (GCS) – Developed by Teasdale and Jennett
Use of three items proven to be the most sensitive measures of severity of head injury and
predictors of immediate outcome. (There is no absolute measure of what constitutes a severe
injury.) The GCS measures eye opening (4 points), best motor response (6 points), and verbal
response (5 points).

Resources & Services Directory for Head Injury, Injury Prevention Service, OSDH 5
Independent Living Center/Program – A place in the community for persons with disease,
injury, or secondary conditions to learn basic self care and daily living skills to live in the
community as independently as possible. Community-based services are available to maximize a
person’s ability to be self-directed and allow her/him to live at home with the maximum personal
control over how services are delivered, combined with the opportunity to work as appropriate.
Instrument – A questionnaire, test or other data collection form used to gather information about

Long Term Acute Care Hospital/Center – A long term acute care (LTAC) hospital differs
from acute care hospitals in three basic ways. First, length of stay (LOS) must be an average of
25 days based on a predetermined Diagnosis Related Group (DRG). Patients are discharged to
LTACs as available when they need extended LOS and intensive medical services. Second,
reimbursement for patients in LTACs is based on actual costs up to the TEFRA target. The
TEFRA rate is determined by Cost Base/Medicare discharge which is controlled by the Balanced
Budget Act of 1997. Long term acute care hospitals have an average length of stay (LOS) of 25
days. They provide 6.5 to 8.5 nursing hours per day based on acuity (amount of nursing time
needed to assist/teach patients in activities of daily living (ADL) such as eating, grooming, and
toileting.) The acuity of therapy is based on diagnosed need and patient tolerance. There are no
maximums or minimums by guidelines and not all patients receive therapy. Type of patients
served are ventilator dependent and medically complex patients. Long term acute care hospitals
have an average length of stay (LOS) of 25 days. They provide 6.5 to 8.5 nursing hours per day
based on acuity (amount of nursing time needed to assist/teach patients in activities of daily
living (ADL) such as eating, grooming, and toileting.) Patients are usually discharged to home
with family or Home Health, nursing home, a skilled nursing facility (SNF), assisted living, or
rehabilitation.
Long term care facility/nursing home – A facility which provides 24-hour nursing care
prescribed by a physician.
Medicaid – A medical assistance program that helps people who cannot afford to pay for their
medical care. Medicaid is a joint federal/state funded program and covers a majority of people on
low incomes, including pregnant women, senior adults, and persons with disabilities. Provided
under Title XIX of the Social Security Act of 1966.
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) – MRI is sensitive in identifying parenchymal injuries,
brainstem injuries, subdural hematomas of differing age and size, and nonhemorrhagic diffuse
brain injuries.
Medicare – a health insurance program offered by the Social Security Administration to help
people pay for their medical care. Part A helps pay for inpatient hospital care, inpatient care in a
Resources & Services Directory for Head Injury, Injury Prevention Service, OSDH 6
skilled nursing facility following a hospital stay, and hospice care. Part B helps pay for doctor’s
services, outpatient hospital care, diagnostic tests, ambulance services, and medical equipment.
The hospital insurance system and the supplementary medical insurance for disabled or aged
persons created by the 1965 amendments to the Social Security Act of 1966.
Memory – Long Term – Refers to recall thirty minutes or longer after presentation. Requires
storage and retrieval of information which exceeds the limit of short-term memory.

awareness. A limited capacity system that holds up to seven chunks of information over periods
of 30 seconds to several minutes, depending upon the person’s attention to the task.
Natural Work Supports – Assistance provided to a person with a disability through means that
already exist in a workplace (for example, a co-worker is a partner to the person with a
disability).
Outcome – Refers to status of the injured at specific points in time. May refer to survival/no
survival, or any measure of physical/mental/emotional/social effects post injury.
Psychological Services for TBI survivors that include cognitive retraining, management
counseling of behavior, and the development of coping skills by the client and members of the
family.

rehabilitation.
Program – A set of activities applied to preventing/educating on disease or injury; includes a plan,
design, funding, implementation and evaluation.
Quality of Life – The total well being of an individual (usually as perceived by the individual),
encompassing both physical and psychosocial determinants. A rating of what kind of existence a
person experiences. In estimating the quality of life, elements include performance of societal
roles, physical status, emotional status, social interactions, intellectual functioning, economic
status, support systems and health status. Additional considerations are mobility and activities of
daily life, living arrangements, social relationships, work and leisure activities, present
satisfaction and future prospects.
Reasoning – Problem-Solving – The ability to analyze information related to a given situation
and generate appropriate response options. Problem-solving is a sequential process that typically

response option appropriateness; selection and testing of first option; and analysis as to whether
solution has been reached.
Referral Source – Person or facility sending a client for services. This includes such service
agencies as vocational rehabilitation, physicians, industry, insurance companies, employment
agencies, community action groups, and potential clients themselves.
Rehabilitation – A comprehensive treatment program has the goal to reduce/overcome deficits
following illness or injury, and to assist the individual to attain their optimal level of mental and
physical ability; useful and productive activity. The process involves a planned, orderly sequence
of multiple, coordinated services related to the total needs of the individual. Services may be
delivered within acute care services, a separate hospital unit, separate facility, or on an outpatient
basis. The scope of services may include physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech/language
therapy, social services, exercise physiology, counseling, recreational therapy, psychological
therapy, pain management, self care and, when possible, case management.

Cognitive – Programs which help traumatic and other brain injury survivors in the management of
specific problems in thinking and perception. Skills are practiced and strategies taught to help
improve function and/or compensate for remaining deficits.
Memory – A type of cognitive therapy where skills are taught/learned to compensate or improve
short-term memory.
Remediation – A method of compensation in which an internal system is created to enable one

Background of Traumatic Head Injury
Introduction. Injury to the brain has been with us since the beginning of humankind. Despite
protection by the skull, the head is vulnerable to injury because of its size and exposure to
objects, weapons, and falls. In past centuries, the main causes of head injury were accidents,
assaults, conflicts and wars. Care of these injuries was complicated by limited knowledge and the
lack of diagnostic and treatment methods. Many people suffered a variety of long-term effects
they and their families had to “live with.”
Over time the causes and sequelae of brain injury have become prominent among conditions that
affect many people. In the 20th and 21st centuries, recreation, sports, and the risks associated with
industrialization and technology have contributed to increasing numbers of injuries. Recognition
and documentation of the after effects of brain injury have increased dramatically since the Six-day
War in the Middle East during the 1960s when cognitive and behavioral long-term effects
were studied among persons serving in the military. During the past 20 years, brain injury has
evolved as a special focus among policy-makers, agencies, and health professionals. The 1990’s
were declared the Decade of the Brain by President Reagan.
Background. Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is defined as a physiological disruption of brain
function resulting from trauma that is either external, such as an object striking the head or the
head striking an object, and/or internal, such as rapid acceleration/deceleration or rotation of the
brain within the skull as in a car crash. The injuries may be open (skull penetrated) or closed
(skull intact). Damage to the brain may interrupt connections within the brain affecting any part
of the body. Present-day conflicts have resulted in thousands of military personnel sustaining
severe local penetrating injuries and/or diffuse injuries (affecting all of the brain) that occur
during blasts or explosions. The brain and the results of injury are very complex. Problems
people may have after injury mainly depend on the part(s) of the brain that was injured,
seriousness of the injury, if the person had other body injuries, age, their state of health, and how
quickly they received treatment.
Number of People Affected. In the United States each year, an estimated one million people
with TBI are treated and released from emergency rooms, about 260,000 are hospitalized, 51,000
die, and 80,000 to 90,000 have moderate to severe disabilities. The Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention (CDC) estimates that 5.4 million people live with a traumatic brain injury-related
disability. The risk of having a traumatic brain injury is substantial among all age groups,
particularly adolescents and young adults, affecting relationships, work, school, and daily living.
Many families suffer emotional and economic problems because of the costs involved in acute
and long term care, rehabilitation, lost productivity, and ongoing health care needs. Presently, the
leading causes of traumatic brain injury are motor vehicle crashes, violence, and falls. The
increasing numbers of blast and other hearing/vision-related brain injuries sustained by service
members in theatres of war are a national and local challenge for veterans health care and the
communities the veterans return to following intensive acute and rehabilitative care.
Oklahoma is one in a group of states with the highest death rates from traumatic brain injury.
According to data collected since 1992, an average of 3400 persons are hospitalized and 850 die
from a brain injury each year. The causes of injury include motor vehicle crashed (32%), falls
Resources & Services Directory for Head Injury, Injury Prevention Service, OSDH 10
(31%), gunshot injuries (11%), assaults (8%), sports (4%) pedestrian (3%) and other causes
(11%). An estimated 700 persons are discharged each year from the hospital with short- or long-term
limitations and disabilities such as cognitive problems, sensory deficits, physical
limitations, or behavior problems.
The main factors that determine survival and functional outcome for a person with brain injury
are the extent of damage alone or in association with other traumatic injuries, immediate and
appropriate medical diagnosis and treatment, and the prevention or control of secondary injuries
to the brain such as swelling and infection.
The severity of injury is the best predictor of how far a person will move along the continuum of
recuperation. Length of coma (LOC) is a reliable marker for judging injury severity and is
measured by the time that has elapsed from injury to the time the person wakes up. In cases of
minor brain injury, there may be no LOC, but in many cases LOC can last for minutes, hours,
days, weeks, or years. Persons may also be confused for periods of time after they become
conscious. The length of time they are confused is called post-traumatic amnesia (PTA). PTA is
considered the second best marker of the severity of brain injury. With mild injury, the majority
of people recover completely in 3 to 9 months without residual effects; however many have
problems for a longer time and some for their lifetime. With moderate injury, a large proportion
of persons with TBI become independent although many do not return to their level of
functioning prior to injury. With severe injury, a small percentage of persons return to school,
work, or are able to perform the activities they performed before injury. The majority of persons
achieve some level of independence.
Residual or After Effects of Traumatic Brain Injury
The types of problems people may experience following brain injury largely depends on the
part(s) of the brain injured and the severity of injury. The figure below shows functions of the
brain that may be affected.

The three main types of problems that may be experienced by a person with traumatic brain
injury are: 1) motor (body weakness or paralysis), or sensory deficits (vision, hearing, smell,
touch); 2) cognitive such as impairments in language, verbal memory, perception, attention, slow
information processing, and poor judgment; and 3) neurobehavioral, that includes impulsivity,
agitation, inappropriate emotions, and poor frustration tolerance.
Rehabilitation provided in a hospital or rehabilitation center, when the person is in condition to
benefit from therapies, helps a person to recover more rapidly. For most people with moderate to
severe injuries, major gains are commonly made during the first two years after injury and more
slowly after that. The person with the injury and the family should learn as much as possible
about therapies and how to assist in recovery, particularly because resources and services needed
over the long term are not available, so the family may have to provide ongoing care.
The Importance of Prevention
The three types of prevention are primary, secondary and tertiary:
Primary prevention involves the acquisition of habits and actions that will reduce the
possibility of injury including:
Use of protective equipment such as safety belts and helmets,
Legislative controls related to vehicle condition, speed, roadways and condition of the
driver,
Knowledge and use of safety behaviors related to risks and hazards,
Knowledge and use of appropriate environmental modifications, and
Avoiding substance use.
Secondary prevention relates to:
Prevention of secondary injuries through appropriate prehospital care and minimizing
complications during acute hospital care,
Prevention of additional brain injuries through knowledge of increased susceptibility (one
of seven persons who experience a head injury is likely to suffer one or more head
injuries), and use of primary prevention actions,
Prevention of secondary conditions associated with the primary condition such as
contractures, and treatment and/or education for preventing or controlling secondary
conditions.
Tertiary prevention is the prevention of further impairment or disability and includes:
Maintaining overall health status through good nutrition, exercise, taking care of
personal, family and social needs, and using coping and adaptation skills,
Assessing functional status periodically to intervene medically as needed, and
Maintaining maximum functional independence given injury severity, overall health
status and pre-injury level of function.
Resources & Services Directory for Head Injury, Injury Prevention Service, OSDH 12
Disability
There are many definitions of disability but they all relate to a limitation in performing tasks,
activities, and roles in the manner or within the range considered normal for persons of the same
age, gender, culture, and education. Disability may refer to a physical, mental, sensory, or
behavioral condition.
Approximately 35 million people in the United States have disabling conditions that interfere
with their life activities. More than nine million people have physical or mental conditions that
keep them from working, attending school, or maintaining a household. Annual disability-related
costs to the nation total more than $170 billion. Oklahoma ranks fifth in the nation in the
proportion of citizens who report one or more disabilities. A large number of people in
Oklahoma are living with traumatic brain injury-related functional limitations or disabilities.
We hope that this directory of resources will help many people obtain assistance and the services
they need in order to live as close to the level of independence they maintained prior to injury.

Accessing and Paying for TBI and Related Services
(Contact information subject to change.)
Access
Access to services involves referral by a physician/other professional or self referral, the ability
to get to the centers, programs or offices that provide services, and the ability to pay for the
services by one or more methods. The majority of brain-injured persons enter the care system via
emergency medical services or the emergency/trauma department; these assured services are
often not paid by people without insurance or with limited resources. In Oklahoma, the Trauma
Care Assistance Revolving Fund helps compensate the hospitals for the costs of caring for these
individuals. Referral and coordination of brain injury services has improved with increased
awareness, information, and maturity of the brain injury services system.
Several state and local agencies that serve as points of entry for particular services include the
Oklahoma Department of Education/Special Education; Oklahoma Department of Health,
Vocational Rehabilitation and employment one-stop centers, tribal health centers, etc.; these
agencies are described within specific sections of the directory. Individuals and families wanting
to access services need to know the services available, referral sources, and the types of services
that are appropriate for their particular case.
Payment Methods
Each phase of brain injury service delivery - emergent, acute, rehabilitative and ongoing care -
contributes to the high costs. Commercial insurance and Medicare are the principal payers of
hospital charges for brain injury. Many insured individuals with serious to severe injury find that
costs exceed coverage and that personal funds are not adequate for the services needed, so they
become dependent upon government sources for further care.
Medicare and Medicaid
Medicare is a Federal Health Insurance Program for people 65 years of age and older, some
people with disabilities under age 65, and people with end-stage renal disease. It provides acute
care coverage for persons 65 years and older and for some people who are covered by Social
Security Disability (SSDI) benefits. Medicare has two parts: Part A is hospital insurance and Part
B is medical insurance. Most people do not have to pay for Part A and the majority of people pay
monthly for Part B.
In Part A, Medicare coverage is limited to services considered “reasonable and necessary” for
the diagnosis and treatment of illness or injury. Services include inpatient hospital stays, critical
access hospitals, skilled nursing facility care, home health care services, and hospice care.
In Part B, Medicare helps pay for physician services, hospital outpatient services, ambulatory
surgery, and diagnostic and laboratory tests. Coverage is also provided for limited outpatient
physical, occupational and speech therapy services and medical equipment and supplies.
Medicaid is a joint federal and state entitlement program that provides funding for medical
benefits to low-income individuals who have inadequate or no health insurance coverage.
Resources & Services Directory for Head Injury, Injury Prevention Service, OSDH 14
Medicaid guarantees coverage for basic health and long-term care services based on income
and/or resources. Created as Title XIX of the Social Security Act in 1965, Medicaid is
administered at the federal level by the Centers of Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS)
within the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). CMS establishes and monitors
certain requirements concerning funding, eligibility standards, and quality and scope of medical
services. States have the flexibility to determine some aspects of their own programs, such as
setting provider reimbursement rates and the broadening of the eligibility requirements and
benefits offered within certain federal parameters. The Oklahoma Health Care Authority
(OHCA) is responsible for administering Medicaid Services in the state of Oklahoma ( 405/522-
7300; www.okhca.org).
Eligibility. In exchange for federal financial participation, states agree to cover certain groups of
individuals referred to as “mandatory groups” and offer a minimum set of services referred to as
“mandatory benefits.” States also can receive federal matching payments to cover additional
optional groups of individuals and provide additional optional services. Federal matching
payments through Medicaid often allow states to partially finance the cost of services that states
have traditionally provided at their expense or to pay for services that otherwise might be written
off by providers as bad debt or charity.
According to Oklahoma State Statutes Title 63 Sec. 5009, the OHCA contracts with the
Oklahoma Department of Human Services (OKDHS) for the determination of Medicaid
eligibility. All applications for Oklahoma Medicaid enrollment are processed and approved or
denied by OKDHS. Applications and renewals are reviewed by each county of residence
OKDHS office for financial and/or medical requirements. After eligibility has been certified or
extended, the records are sent to OHCA to coordinate medical services and process payments for
services utilized.
Title XIX of the Social Security Act requires that in order to receive federal matching funds,
certain basic services must be offered to the categorically needy population in any state program.
Each state has a plan that describes the groups of individuals who can receive Medicaid services
and the services that the state will make available to them.

Early Periodic Screening, Diagnosis and Treatment (EPSDT) under age 21 years.

Sometimes you may have to spend down your personal resources before you qualify.
Applications for Medicaid are obtained at the county offices in Oklahoma.
Home and Community-Based Services Waivers give states the flexibility to develop and
implement creative alternatives to placing Medicaid-eligible individuals in institutions such as
long-term care hospitals, nursing facilities, or intermediate care facilities for person with mental
retardation. The OKDHS is responsible for and administers five Home and Community-Based
Services waivers. The two waivers that may relate to persons with TBI are:
The Community Waiver serves Medicaid beneficiaries with mental retardation and
certain persons with “related conditions.” It covers children and adults, with a minimum
age of three years; and
The ADvantage waiver serves the frail elderly (65 years and older) and adults 21 years of
age or older with physical disabilities who would otherwise qualify for placement in a
nursing facility.
Social Security Act
The Social Security Act passed in 1935 was “an act to provide for the general welfare by
establishing a system of Federal old-age benefits, and by enabling the several States to make more
adequate provision for aged persons, blind persons, dependent and crippled children, maternal and
child welfare, public health, and the administration of their unemployment –compensation laws;
to establish a Social Security Board; to raise revenue; and for other purposes.”

Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI)
Social Security Disability Insurance is wage replacement income for those who pay FICA taxes
when they have a disability meeting Social Security disability rules. SSDI provides a variety of
payments to family members when a primary wage earner becomes disabled or dies. SSDI is
funded with Social Security taxes paid by workers, employers, and self-employed persons.
FICA taxes are withheld from an individual’s salary to fund Social Security and Medicare
programs. This federal government insurance provides basic protection against the loss of
income due to disability. Benefits may be provided to both the worker with disability and to
family members, including children. The number of work credits needed to qualify for SSDI
depends on the age of disability onset. There is usually a five-month waiting period after the
person has met the requirements for disability. The amount of SSDI payment is based on the
person’s lifetime average earnings covered by social security and on other government payment
received. SSDI provides a monthly payment to eligible persons with disability defined as:
A physical or mental impairment which prevents an individual from performing any
substantial gainful activity and which is expected to last at least one year or result in
death. Substantial gainful activity is not necessarily the kind of work the individual
performed prior to the disability.
Supplemental Security Income (SSI)
This federal government insurance provides monthly payments to people who are older, disabled
or blind and who meet specific income or resources requirements. SSI eligibility considers the
individuals’ income and property (homes are not excluded). People who receive SSI may be
eligible to apply for Medicaid and food stamps.
Workers Compensation Commission
Workers compensation law is administered by the Oklahoma Workers’ Compensation
Commission. The law was written to protect workers by providing compensation for the loss of
earning capacity resulting from accidental injury, disease, or death during employment. The law
provides medical and vocational rehabilitation services and other benefits. An employee claim
may be filed by any worker who believes an injury should be covered under the law.

Emergency Medical Services and Trauma System
Emergency medical services (EMS) or prehospital care, are provided in urgent situations at the
time and place of event and continue through admittance to the emergency room or hospital,
when hospital staff initiate specialized care. Emergency medical and trauma services are
organized as a statewide system and network to reach, treat, and transfer patients to the most
appropriate facility as soon as possible. Regional field personnel for the EMS Division
coordinate services in the eight geographical regions. The four levels of EMS care,
corresponding to the training and experience of staff are: basic life support, intermediate life
support, paramedic life support, and specialty care.
• Basic Life Support indicates the “minimum standard” as set forth by State law.
Provision of EMS care is provided on a 24-hour, 365 days per year basis;
• Intermediate Life Support indicates that personnel and equipment are at the
Intermediate level of care;
• Paramedic Life Support indicates that the personnel and equipment are at the
Paramedic level of care;
• Specialty Care indicates that the personnel and equipment meet specific and special
needs required for inter-facility transport of critical care. Specialty Care need not operate
on a 24-hour basis.
Type of Radio Communication:
The three methods of dispatching are:
1) provider – ambulances are dispatched directly by the ambulance service at their base
station;
2) central – ambulances are dispatched by a radio utilized for dispatching more than just
ambulance vehicles; and
3) regional – ambulances from several different providers are dispatched through a
multiple city/county base station.
In the majority of communities EMS may be reached by dialing 911. Areas not covered by 911
have a specific number(s) to call in emergencies. There are four levels of trauma system care in
Oklahoma, one hospital is classified as Level I (highest), 2 as level II, 29 as Level III and the
remainder are classified as Level IV. The higher the level, the more stringent criteria are in place
such as 24-hour presence of surgeons, neurosurgeons, and the availability of advanced
equipment and diagnostic ability. The following map shows the type of EMS coverage provided
across the state.

Acute Care Hospitals
(Contact information subject to change)
Acute care hospitals are the principal source of a wide array of services in the community including
emergency and hospital care, varying levels of rehabilitation, and outpatient services. Hospital
providers are responsible for giving referral to services provided in the hospital after discharge or
referral to services in other locations. Acute care hospitals are usually accredited by The Joint
Commission. Head injury patients who experience problems or lasting effects should return for care
to the hospital where they received treatment, because history of the injury and care received are in
the medical records, and physicians can better review the case. Local hospitals also provide basic
health care through clinics and programs.

Long Term Acute Care Hospitals
(See Definition of Terms)
Long term acute care (LTAC) hospitals may be housed within an acute care hospital or free
standing. They provide specialized care for medical patients who are critically ill or have multi-system
complications that require aggressive and continuous acute care services. Long term
acute care hospitals have an average length of stay (LOS) of 25 days. They provide 6.5 to 8.5
nursing hours per day based on acuity (amount of nursing time needed to assist/teach patients in
activities of daily living such as eating, grooming, and toileting.) The acuity of therapy is based
on diagnosed need and patient tolerance. There are no maximums or minimums by guidelines
and not all patients receive therapy. Patients are usually discharged to home with family or Home
Health, a nursing home, a skilled nursing facility (SNF), assisted living, or rehabilitation.

Oklahoma Acute Rehabilitation Centers
Rehabilitation centers may occupy either a separate unit or department within an acute care
hospital or a free-standing facility associated with a hospital devoted exclusively to rehabilitation.
Inpatient rehabilitation centers are usually accredited by The Joint Commission and seek
accreditation of Certification of Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF). The number and types of
services may vary according to patients’ needs. A comprehensive treatment program has the goal to
reduce/overcome deficits following illness or injury and to assist individuals to attain their optimal
level of mental and physical ability, and useful, productive activity. The process involves a planned,
orderly sequence of multiple, coordinated services related to the total needs of the individual.
Services may be delivered within acute care services, a separate hospital unit, separate facility, or on
an outpatient basis as the patient’s condition improves. The scope of rehabilitation services for
individuals with TBI is diverse, requiring careful diagnosis and assessment of physical, cognitive
and behavioral impairments. The team of TBI rehabilitation specialists may include a physician,
physiatrist, nurse, neuropsychologist, psychologist, recreational therapist, physical therapist,
occupational therapist, speech/language pathologist, special educator, exercise physiologist,
counselor, social worker, and case manager. When the patient is ready to benefit from rehabilitation,
the patient/family and physician attempt to select a center that treats a large number of TBI patients
and has the professional staff available. Many for-profit organizations/centers in Oklahoma provide
outpatient rehabilitation services. Those centers are not included here.

Oklahoma City Service Area Indian Health Center Locations
Tribal Health Center Locations
Oklahoma City Service Area includes Holton, Lawrence, and Wichita Kansas, and Dallas Texas
Indian and Tribal service units and health centers in Oklahoma provide basic prevention and
health services to the majority of Native Americans in the state, and to all individuals who seek
care in the facilities. People who suffer more severe injuries or medical problems are often
transferred to a larger facility for special care. The Indian centers maintain complete records of
patients’ emergency room, clinic visits, and hospital admissions for easy reference and follow
up. People who sustain brain injury and are treated in a larger facility are usually followed by the
admitting facility and their Indian Center.

Neuropsychologists, Oklahoma
Neuropsychology is a relatively new field where clinicians investigate the relationship between
human behavior and how the brain works. They use several tests to measure the person’s skills
by evaluating strengths and weaknesses following brain injury, which helps in planning
appropriate rehabilitation and vocational (work or school) activity.

Optometrists Who Provide Visual Therapy, Oklahoma
Vision therapy is provided by optometrists who practice preventive and rehabilitative
optometry by first seeking the cause of visual dysfunction and treating those causes, not just
the symptoms that include headaches, blurred or double vision, poor comprehension, or “not
working to potential.” Although the majority of people may benefit from this care, it is
especially effective for the following groups:
Individuals who have suffered a brain injury or other cerebral trauma,
Students diagnosed as “learning disabled,”
Computer users,
Athletes,
Persons labeled as “juvenile delinquents,”
Persons who use their near vision a great deal at work or in recreation.
Vision is the dominant sense in the process of deriving meaning from what is seen. It is a
learned and developed set of functions that involves many skills. It is estimated that 80%-
85% of our perception, learning, cognition and activities are made possible through vision.
More than 50% of people with neurologic impairments such as traumatic brain injury, stroke,
multiple sclerosis, etc., have visual and visual-cognitive disorders. The three main visual
problems resulting from brain injury and stroke are visual field loss, intractable double
vision, and visual/balance disorders. In many cases, a poorly developed visual system, or one
that has been damaged, leads to processing difficulties for these individuals. A complete
visual evaluation can determine if the problem is visually related and if the person can
benefit from specific vision therapies.
Optometrists who provide Visual Therapy in Oklahoma:
*Board certified.

Introduction and Background of Head Injury Purpose and Use of Resources and Services Directory The intent of the directory is to help individuals, families, and providers know what resources and services are available in the state of Oklahoma for head injury and other conditions, and how they may seek referral or obtain them directly. The need for such a document became readily apparent while responding to the many inquiries and requests for information related to head injury, immediate and long term services, and disability-related social and employment issues. Although developed for persons who sustained a brain injury and their families, the directory is useful for persons with other conditions, persons with disabilities, and the general population. The agencies, organizations, and the broad array of health and social services citizens may need are included in the directory. The services are organized by the phases or continuum of care that patients and families may encounter following an injury event, from prehospital to acute and rehabilitative care to the broad array of community life services. Substantial information is devoted to specific populations such as children, Native Americans, veterans, and the organizations that provide basic health and social services to improve daily living. The accessibility and availability of services in Oklahoma vary by geographic region, resources, and the distribution of professionals and other providers. The resource needs of children 18 years and younger were highlighted in a recent follow up study of children with head injury which helped to determine need for short- and long-term rehabilitation, information about special education, and transitional services to higher education and work. The directory was first completed in 2006 after review and input by colleagues and members of the Advisory Council and Task Force. The Directory Committee assisted with distribution of materials. Information in the directory is updated periodically and includes all aspects of care and the services that may be needed and requested by persons with traumatic brain injury and other conditions. Because each individual, family, or provider wants information specific to their area(s) of need, individual sections may be requested by calling the Injury Prevention Service (405/271-3430) or information may be downloaded from the IPS web page (http://ips.health.ok.gov). If there are further questions after reviewing the information, individuals may contact the Traumatic Brain Injury Program. Contact information for direction listings is subject to change. Resources & Services Directory for Head Injury, Injury Prevention Service, OSDH 1 Definition Of Selected Terms Abbreviated Injury Scale (AIS) – Abbreviated injury scale (AIS) scoring was developed by the Association of Automotive Medicine, initially for the purpose of assessing survival following motor vehicle crashes. It is a standardized system for categorizing injury type and severity. Although AIS is based on anatomical injury, it includes physiologic measures as injury descriptors, such as occurrence and length of loss of consciousness, amount of bleeding, etc. AIS 1 is not consistent with the definition of traumatic brain injury. AIS 2 is moderate injury. AIS is serious injury. AIS 4 severe injury, and AIS 5 critical injury. AIS 6 is a nonsalvageable injury. Americans with Disability Act (ADA) – The ADA is a federal act that was passed in 1990 to prohibit discrimination against persons with disabilities, including brain injury, in the areas of: • Public accommodations such as building and sidewalk accessibility • Employment • Transportation • State and Local Government Services • Telecommunications Assault – An act of violence resulting in injury. Case Management – Facilitating the access of a patient to appropriate medical, rehabilitation and support programs, and coordination of the delivery of services. This role may involve liaison with various professionals and agencies, advocacy on behalf of the patient, and arranging for purchase of services where no appropriate programs are available. Cognitive Ability – The ability to accumulate and retain new knowledge. Cognitive Rehabilitation – Therapy which helps persons in the management of problems in perception, memory, thinking, attention, judgment and problem solving. Skills are practiced and strategies devised/taught to improve function and compensate for deficits. The interventions are based on an assessment and understanding of the person’s brain-behavior deficits. Services are provided by qualified practitioners. Community re-entry/integration – Services to prepare client to enter community knowing where and how needed services may be obtained. Community Resources – Public or private agencies, schools or programs offering services to the public. They are usually funded by government agencies, community initiatives, donations and fees. Community Skills – Those abilities needed to function independently in the community. They may include: telephone skills, money management, pedestrian skills, use of public transportation, meal planning and cooking. Resources & Services Directory for Head Injury, Injury Prevention Service, OSDH 2 Compensation Technique – A method of working around a functional impairment by using techniques designed to help a person with a disability overcome the impairment (for example, for memory impairment, a person uses a calendar or notebook to record information). Competitive Employment – Work in the competitive labor market that is performed on a full-time or part-time basis in an integrated setting; and for which the individual is compensated at or above, but not less than, the minimum wage. Computed Tomography – CT scanning is the most common imaging modality used initially for the diagnosis and medical management of head-injured patients. CT scan evaluates presence or absence of intracranial hemorrhage and osseous injuries, and has relatively low cost. Day program – A non-residential program of services intended to increase the functional ability of the consumer through therapeutic intervention and supervised activities. These services facilitate community integration. Depression - A state of disorder marked by sadness, inactivity and self-depreciation.

The expression of a physical, mental, or sensory limitation in a social context; the gap between a person's capabilities and the demands of the environment. Includes developmental disability, and disability related to chronic disease, injury and secondary conditions. Disability Rating Scale (DRS) – The DRS evaluates the person on 8 categories of disability and scores his or her functioning areas that include, among others: • Level of arousal, awareness, and responsiveness • Cognitive skills needed for self-care activities • Dependence on others • Psychosocial adaptability, which includes flexibility and the ability to adapt to different people and situations. The highest possible score is 30 points. In this scale, a lower score is better. Evaluation in a Workshop Setting – A process whereby the client’s work potential is assessed in a controlled area using simulated or actual job tasks to assess ability to relate to demands of the work environment and perform adequately. Has the following characteristics: 1) client may not be paid; 2) client is exposed to tasks on which performance can be assessed; 3) client’s performance is supervised and evaluated in coordination with the evaluation staff; and 4) existence of established evaluation program. Emergency medical services system – An organized system that provides personnel, facilities and equipment for the coordinated delivery of health care services in a specific geographical area under emergent conditions. Resources & Services Directory for Head Injury, Injury Prevention Service, OSDH 3 Epidemiology – The study of the distribution and determinants of health and disease (including injuries) in populations. • It is a component of public health and constitutes the scientific methods used to reason about the cause and natural course of disease or conditions. • Epidemiologic research incorporates statistical techniques with an understanding of biological, behavioral and social mechanisms important in disease occurrence and spread. • Utilizes group/aggregate data; numerator-denominator oriented. Epidemiologic Measures Rate Measures the risk of acquiring the injury/disease (incidence) in a certain time interval: Numerator (New cases in a time interval) Denominator (Population at risk of developing disease or being injured at the beginning of the time interval. Surveillance The ongoing systematic collection, analysis and interpretation of health/injury data needed to plan, implement, and evaluate programs. Incidence Measures risk of disease or injury in a population. Prevalence Measures the burden of disease or injury within a population Evaluation On-The-Job – Has the characteristics: 1) the client is not necessarily paid; 2) it is primarily for the client’s benefit; 3) it will not necessarily result in employment; 4) the employer does not experience immediate gain; 5) the client does not displace or fill any vacant worker slots; and, the client’s performance is supervised and evaluated by the employer and/or the evaluation staff. The client is given the opportunity to experience the specific requirements necessary to do the specific job in an actual job setting. Follow up – Vocational – Supportive assistance during the initial stage of a new program or job placement and which may determine to what degree the past and present program is adequate in meeting client needs and/or ascertain the readiness of clients to benefit from new programs. Family Services – Services provided by a social worker or counselor to assist family (and patient) counseling in coping with the particular disease/condition of a client. Functional Assessment – An evaluation that determines how well a person with a disability can perform specific job-related duties. The assessment may be done at a mock job setting or in an actual job setting during a period of several days. Functional Limitation – Any restriction or lack of ability to perform an activity in the manner or within the range considered normal for a human being, which is chronic or permanent in nature, and/or which is judged to be a cultural, social, economic, and/or environmental disadvantage. Resources & Services Directory for Head Injury, Injury Prevention Service, OSDH 4 Glasgow Coma Score (GCS) – Developed by Teasdale and Jennett Use of three items proven to be the most sensitive measures of severity of head injury and predictors of immediate outcome. (There is no absolute measure of what constitutes a severe injury.) The GCS measures eye opening (4 points), best motor response (6 points), and verbal response (5 points). Response Points Eye opening Opens eyes on own E4 Opens eyes when asked in a loud voice 3 Opens eyes when pinched 2 Does not open eyes 1 Best motor Follows simple commands M6 response Pulls examiner’s hand away when pinched 5 Pulls a part of body away when examiner pinches him 4 Flexes body inappropriately to pain (decorticate posturing) 3 Body becomes rigid in an extended position when examiner pinches person 2 Has no motor response to pinch 1 Verbal response Carries on a conversation correctly and tells examiner V5 (Talking) where he is, who he is, and the month and year Seems confused or disoriented 4 Talks so examiner can understand person but makes no 3 sense Makes sounds that examiner cannot understand 2 Makes no noise 1 Handicap – A condition, barrier, or disadvantage imposed by society, the environment, or by one's self that limits or prevents fulfillment of a (social) role that is "normal" for an individual.

Job training - Services to provide client with various skills specific to job types. Long Term Acute Care Hospital/Center – A long term acute care (LTAC) hospital differs from acute care hospitals in three basic ways. First, length of stay (LOS) must be an average of 25 days based on a predetermined Diagnosis Related Group (DRG). Patients are discharged to LTACs as available when they need extended LOS and intensive medical services. Second, reimbursement for patients in LTACs is based on actual costs up to the TEFRA target. The TEFRA rate is determined by Cost Base/Medicare discharge which is controlled by the Balanced Budget Act of 1997. Long term acute care hospitals have an average length of stay (LOS) of 25 days. They provide 6.5 to 8.5 nursing hours per day based on acuity (amount of nursing time needed to assist/teach patients in activities of daily living (ADL) such as eating, grooming, and toileting.) The acuity of therapy is based on diagnosed need and patient tolerance. There are no maximums or minimums by guidelines and not all patients receive therapy. Type of patients served are ventilator dependent and medically complex patients. Long term acute care hospitals have an average length of stay (LOS) of 25 days. They provide 6.5 to 8.5 nursing hours per day based on acuity (amount of nursing time needed to assist/teach patients in activities of daily living (ADL) such as eating, grooming, and toileting.) Patients are usually discharged to home with family or Home Health, nursing home, a skilled nursing facility (SNF), assisted living, or rehabilitation. Long term care facility/nursing home – A facility which provides 24-hour nursing care prescribed by a physician. Medicaid – A medical assistance program that helps people who cannot afford to pay for their medical care. Medicaid is a joint federal/state funded program and covers a majority of people on low incomes, including pregnant women, senior adults, and persons with disabilities.

In estimating the quality of life, elements include performance of societal roles, physical status, emotional status, social interactions, intellectual functioning, economic status, support systems and health status. Additional considerations are mobility and activities of daily life, living arrangements, social relationships, work and leisure activities, present satisfaction and future prospects. Reasoning – Problem-Solving – The ability to analyze information related to a given situation and generate appropriate response options. Problem-solving is a sequential process that typically proceeds by: identification of the problem; generation of response options; evaluation of Resources & Services Directory for Head Injury, Injury Prevention Service, OSDH 7 response option appropriateness; selection and testing of first option; and analysis as to whether solution has been reached.

Resources & Services Directory for Head Injury, Injury Prevention Service, OSDH 9 Background of Traumatic Head Injury Introduction. Injury to the brain has been with us since the beginning of humankind. Despite protection by the skull, the head is vulnerable to injury because of its size and exposure to objects, weapons, and falls. In past centuries, the main causes of head injury were accidents, assaults, conflicts and wars. Care of these injuries was complicated by limited knowledge and the lack of diagnostic and treatment methods. Many people suffered a variety of long-term effects they and their families had to “live with.” Over time the causes and sequelae of brain injury have become prominent among conditions that affect many people. In the 20th and 21st centuries, recreation, sports, and the risks associated with industrialization and technology have contributed to increasing numbers of injuries. Recognition and documentation of the after effects of brain injury have increased dramatically since the Six-day War in the Middle East during the 1960s when cognitive and behavioral long-term effects were studied among persons serving in the military. During the past 20 years, brain injury has evolved as a special focus among policy-makers, agencies, and health professionals. The 1990’s were declared the Decade of the Brain by President Reagan. Background. Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is defined as a physiological disruption of brain function resulting from trauma that is either external, such as an object striking the head or the head striking an object, and/or internal, such as rapid acceleration/deceleration or rotation of the brain within the skull as in a car crash. The injuries may be open (skull penetrated) or closed (skull intact). Damage to the brain may interrupt connections within the brain affecting any part of the body. Present-day conflicts have resulted in thousands of military personnel sustaining severe local penetrating injuries and/or diffuse injuries (affecting all of the brain) that occur during blasts or explosions. The brain and the results of injury are very complex. Problems people may have after injury mainly depend on the part(s) of the brain that was injured, seriousness of the injury, if the person had other body injuries, age, their state of health, and how quickly they received treatment. Number of People Affected. In the United States each year, an estimated one million people with TBI are treated and released from emergency rooms, about 260,000 are hospitalized, 51,000 die, and 80,000 to 90,000 have moderate to severe disabilities. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates that 5.4 million people live with a traumatic brain injury-related disability. The risk of having a traumatic brain injury is substantial among all age groups, particularly adolescents and young adults, affecting relationships, work, school, and daily living. Many families suffer emotional and economic problems because of the costs involved in acute and long term care, rehabilitation, lost productivity, and ongoing health care needs. Presently, the leading causes of traumatic brain injury are motor vehicle crashes, violence, and falls. The increasing numbers of blast and other hearing/vision-related brain injuries sustained by service members in theatres of war are a national and local challenge for veterans health care and the communities the veterans return to following intensive acute and rehabilitative care. Oklahoma is one in a group of states with the highest death rates from traumatic brain injury. According to data collected since 1992, an average of 3400 persons are hospitalized and 850 die from a brain injury each year. The causes of injury include motor vehicle crashed (32%), falls Resources & Services Directory for Head Injury, Injury Prevention Service, OSDH 10 (31%), gunshot injuries (11%), assaults (8%), sports (4%) pedestrian (3%) and other causes (11%). An estimated 700 persons are discharged each year from the hospital with short- or long-term limitations and disabilities such as cognitive problems, sensory deficits, physical limitations, or behavior problems. The main factors that determine survival and functional outcome for a person with brain injury are the extent of damage alone or in association with other traumatic injuries, immediate and appropriate medical diagnosis and treatment, and the prevention or control of secondary injuries to the brain such as swelling and infection. The severity of injury is the best predictor of how far a person will move along the continuum of recuperation. Length of coma (LOC) is a reliable marker for judging injury severity and is measured by the time that has elapsed from injury to the time the person wakes up. In cases of minor brain injury, there may be no LOC, but in many cases LOC can last for minutes, hours, days, weeks, or years. Persons may also be confused for periods of time after they become conscious. The length of time they are confused is called post-traumatic amnesia (PTA). PTA is considered the second best marker of the severity of brain injury. With mild injury, the majority of people recover completely in 3 to 9 months without residual effects; however many have problems for a longer time and some for their lifetime. With moderate injury, a large proportion of persons with TBI become independent although many do not return to their level of functioning prior to injury. With severe injury, a small percentage of persons return to school, work, or are able to perform the activities they performed before injury. The majority of persons achieve some level of independence. Residual or After Effects of Traumatic Brain Injury The types of problems people may experience following brain injury largely depends on the part(s) of the brain injured and the severity of injury. The figure below shows functions of the brain that may be affected. Functional Domains of the Brain Cerebellum Brain Stem Frontal Lobe Parietal Lobe Occipital Lobe Temporal Lobe Regulates: Blood pressure Heartbeat Respiration Reflexes Gateway for information to and from the body Coordination and balance Motor skills Visual perception and Input Reading (perception and recognition of printed words) Tactile perception (touch) Awareness of spatial relationships Academic skills (reading) Using information from body senses Memory Expressive and receptive language Comprehension of language Musical awareness Organization and Sequencing skills Motivation Controlling attention Emotional control Guide/Control social behavior Judgment and problem-solving Decision making Expressive language Abstract thinking Motor integration Voluntary movement Inhibition of behavior Cerebrum Resources & Services Directory for Head Injury, Injury Prevention Service, OSDH 11 The three main types of problems that may be experienced by a person with traumatic brain injury are: 1) motor (body weakness or paralysis), or sensory deficits (vision, hearing, smell, touch); 2) cognitive such as impairments in language, verbal memory, perception, attention, slow information processing, and poor judgment; and 3) neurobehavioral, that includes impulsivity, agitation, inappropriate emotions, and poor frustration tolerance. Rehabilitation provided in a hospital or rehabilitation center, when the person is in condition to benefit from therapies, helps a person to recover more rapidly. For most people with moderate to severe injuries, major gains are commonly made during the first two years after injury and more slowly after that. The person with the injury and the family should learn as much as possible about therapies and how to assist in recovery, particularly because resources and services needed over the long term are not available, so the family may have to provide ongoing care. The Importance of Prevention The three types of prevention are primary, secondary and tertiary: Primary prevention involves the acquisition of habits and actions that will reduce the possibility of injury including: Use of protective equipment such as safety belts and helmets, Legislative controls related to vehicle condition, speed, roadways and condition of the driver, Knowledge and use of safety behaviors related to risks and hazards, Knowledge and use of appropriate environmental modifications, and Avoiding substance use. Secondary prevention relates to: Prevention of secondary injuries through appropriate prehospital care and minimizing complications during acute hospital care, Prevention of additional brain injuries through knowledge of increased susceptibility (one of seven persons who experience a head injury is likely to suffer one or more head injuries), and use of primary prevention actions, Prevention of secondary conditions associated with the primary condition such as contractures, and treatment and/or education for preventing or controlling secondary conditions. Tertiary prevention is the prevention of further impairment or disability and includes: Maintaining overall health status through good nutrition, exercise, taking care of personal, family and social needs, and using coping and adaptation skills, Assessing functional status periodically to intervene medically as needed, and Maintaining maximum functional independence given injury severity, overall health status and pre-injury level of function. Resources & Services Directory for Head Injury, Injury Prevention Service, OSDH 12 Disability There are many definitions of disability but they all relate to a limitation in performing tasks, activities, and roles in the manner or within the range considered normal for persons of the same age, gender, culture, and education. Disability may refer to a physical, mental, sensory, or behavioral condition. Approximately 35 million people in the United States have disabling conditions that interfere with their life activities. More than nine million people have physical or mental conditions that keep them from working, attending school, or maintaining a household. Annual disability-related costs to the nation total more than $170 billion. Oklahoma ranks fifth in the nation in the proportion of citizens who report one or more disabilities. A large number of people in Oklahoma are living with traumatic brain injury-related functional limitations or disabilities. We hope that this directory of resources will help many people obtain assistance and the services they need in order to live as close to the level of independence they maintained prior to injury.

Accessing and Paying for TBI and Related Services (Contact information subject to change.) Access Access to services involves referral by a physician/other professional or self referral, the ability to get to the centers, programs or offices that provide services, and the ability to pay for the services by one or more methods. The majority of brain-injured persons enter the care system via emergency medical services or the emergency/trauma department; these assured services are often not paid by people without insurance or with limited resources. In Oklahoma, the Trauma Care Assistance Revolving Fund helps compensate the hospitals for the costs of caring for these individuals. Referral and coordination of brain injury services has improved with increased awareness, information, and maturity of the brain injury services system. Several state and local agencies that serve as points of entry for particular services include the Oklahoma Department of Education/Special Education; Oklahoma Department of Health, Vocational Rehabilitation and employment one-stop centers, tribal health centers, etc.; these agencies are described within specific sections of the directory. Individuals and families wanting to access services need to know the services available, referral sources, and the types of services that are appropriate for their particular case. Payment Methods Each phase of brain injury service delivery - emergent, acute, rehabilitative and ongoing care - contributes to the high costs. Commercial insurance and Medicare are the principal payers of hospital charges for brain injury. Many insured individuals with serious to severe injury find that costs exceed coverage and that personal funds are not adequate for the services needed, so they become dependent upon government sources for further care. Medicare and Medicaid Medicare is a Federal Health Insurance Program for people 65 years of age and older, some people with disabilities under age 65, and people with end-stage renal disease. It provides acute care coverage for persons 65 years and older and for some people who are covered by Social Security Disability (SSDI) benefits. Medicare has two parts: Part A is hospital insurance and Part B is medical insurance. Most people do not have to pay for Part A and the majority of people pay monthly for Part B. In Part A, Medicare coverage is limited to services considered “reasonable and necessary” for the diagnosis and treatment of illness or injury. Services include inpatient hospital stays, critical access hospitals, skilled nursing facility care, home health care services, and hospice care. In Part B, Medicare helps pay for physician services, hospital outpatient services, ambulatory surgery, and diagnostic and laboratory tests. Coverage is also provided for limited outpatient physical, occupational and speech therapy services and medical equipment and supplies. Medicaid is a joint federal and state entitlement program that provides funding for medical benefits to low-income individuals who have inadequate or no health insurance coverage. Resources & Services Directory for Head Injury, Injury Prevention Service, OSDH 14 Medicaid guarantees coverage for basic health and long-term care services based on income and/or resources. Created as Title XIX of the Social Security Act in 1965, Medicaid is administered at the federal level by the Centers of Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) within the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). CMS establishes and monitors certain requirements concerning funding, eligibility standards, and quality and scope of medical services. States have the flexibility to determine some aspects of their own programs, such as setting provider reimbursement rates and the broadening of the eligibility requirements and benefits offered within certain federal parameters. The Oklahoma Health Care Authority (OHCA) is responsible for administering Medicaid Services in the state of Oklahoma ( 405/522- 7300; www.okhca.org). Eligibility. In exchange for federal financial participation, states agree to cover certain groups of individuals referred to as “mandatory groups” and offer a minimum set of services referred to as “mandatory benefits.” States also can receive federal matching payments to cover additional optional groups of individuals and provide additional optional services. Federal matching payments through Medicaid often allow states to partially finance the cost of services that states have traditionally provided at their expense or to pay for services that otherwise might be written off by providers as bad debt or charity. According to Oklahoma State Statutes Title 63 Sec. 5009, the OHCA contracts with the Oklahoma Department of Human Services (OKDHS) for the determination of Medicaid eligibility. All applications for Oklahoma Medicaid enrollment are processed and approved or denied by OKDHS. Applications and renewals are reviewed by each county of residence OKDHS office for financial and/or medical requirements. After eligibility has been certified or extended, the records are sent to OHCA to coordinate medical services and process payments for services utilized. Title XIX of the Social Security Act requires that in order to receive federal matching funds, certain basic services must be offered to the categorically needy population in any state program. Each state has a plan that describes the groups of individuals who can receive Medicaid services and the services that the state will make available to them. Federally Mandated Services include: Early Periodic Screening, Diagnosis and Treatment (EPSDT) under age 21 years. Family planning services and supplies Inpatient hospital Laboratory and X-ray Emergency transportation Nurse midwife Nurse practitioner Nursing facility/home health (age 21+) Outpatient hospital Physician Prenatal, delivery and postpartum care Rural health clinic and federally qualified health center Non-emergency transportation Resources & Services Directory for Head Injury, Injury Prevention Service, OSDH 15 State Optional Covered Services include: Case management Optometrist Chiropractor Personal care Clinic Physical therapy Dental Podiatrist Diagnostics Prescribed drugs Emergency hospital Preventive services Inpatient hospital (age 65+) Private duty nursing (institutions for mental disease) Prosthetic devices Inpatient psychiatric under 21 years Psychologist Intermediate Care Facility for the Mentally Retarded Rehabilitative Nurse anesthetist Respiratory care Nursing facility under 21 years Speech/hearing/language disorders Occupational therapy Tuberculosis related Sometimes you may have to spend down your personal resources before you qualify. Applications for Medicaid are obtained at the county offices in Oklahoma. Home and Community-Based Services Waivers give states the flexibility to develop and implement creative alternatives to placing Medicaid-eligible individuals in institutions such as long-term care hospitals, nursing facilities, or intermediate care facilities for person with mental retardation. The OKDHS is responsible for and administers five Home and Community-Based Services waivers. The two waivers that may relate to persons with TBI are: The Community Waiver serves Medicaid beneficiaries with mental retardation and certain persons with “related conditions.” It covers children and adults, with a minimum age of three years; and The ADvantage waiver serves the frail elderly (65 years and older) and adults 21 years of age or older with physical disabilities who would otherwise qualify for placement in a nursing facility. Social Security Act The Social Security Act passed in 1935 was “an act to provide for the general welfare by establishing a system of Federal old-age benefits, and by enabling the several States to make more adequate provision for aged persons, blind persons, dependent and crippled children, maternal and child welfare, public health, and the administration of their unemployment –compensation laws; to establish a Social Security Board; to raise revenue; and for other purposes.” Social Security Administration Handles retirement and Survivors Disability SSI Benefits General information 800/772-1213 Resources & Services Directory for Head Injury, Injury Prevention Service, OSDH 16 Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) Social Security Disability Insurance is wage replacement income for those who pay FICA taxes when they have a disability meeting Social Security disability rules. SSDI provides a variety of payments to family members when a primary wage earner becomes disabled or dies. SSDI is funded with Social Security taxes paid by workers, employers, and self-employed persons. FICA taxes are withheld from an individual’s salary to fund Social Security and Medicare programs. This federal government insurance provides basic protection against the loss of income due to disability. Benefits may be provided to both the worker with disability and to family members, including children. The number of work credits needed to qualify for SSDI depends on the age of disability onset. There is usually a five-month waiting period after the person has met the requirements for disability. The amount of SSDI payment is based on the person’s lifetime average earnings covered by social security and on other government payment received. SSDI provides a monthly payment to eligible persons with disability defined as: A physical or mental impairment which prevents an individual from performing any substantial gainful activity and which is expected to last at least one year or result in death. Substantial gainful activity is not necessarily the kind of work the individual performed prior to the disability. Supplemental Security Income (SSI) This federal government insurance provides monthly payments to people who are older, disabled or blind and who meet specific income or resources requirements. SSI eligibility considers the individuals’ income and property (homes are not excluded). People who receive SSI may be eligible to apply for Medicaid and food stamps. Workers Compensation Commission Workers compensation law is administered by the Oklahoma Workers’ Compensation Commission. The law was written to protect workers by providing compensation for the loss of earning capacity resulting from accidental injury, disease, or death during employment. The law provides medical and vocational rehabilitation services and other benefits. An employee claim may be filed by any worker who believes an injury should be covered under the law. For information contact: Department of Labor 405/521-6100 State Insurance Department The State Insurance Department serves individuals who need help in filing an appeal or complaint regarding an insurance payer. The agency is responsible for: 1) ensuring that all policies and contracts issued by private insurers are within state insurance law guidelines; 2) educate consumers about insurance; and 3) investigate complaints against insurance brokers, agents, and companies.

Emergency Medical Services and Trauma System Emergency medical services (EMS) or prehospital care, are provided in urgent situations at the time and place of event and continue through admittance to the emergency room or hospital, when hospital staff initiate specialized care. Emergency medical and trauma services are organized as a statewide system and network to reach, treat, and transfer patients to the most appropriate facility as soon as possible. Regional field personnel for the EMS Division coordinate services in the eight geographical regions. The four levels of EMS care, corresponding to the training and experience of staff are: basic life support, intermediate life support, paramedic life support, and specialty care. • Basic Life Support indicates the “minimum standard” as set forth by State law. Provision of EMS care is provided on a 24-hour, 365 days per year basis; • Intermediate Life Support indicates that personnel and equipment are at the Intermediate level of care; • Paramedic Life Support indicates that the personnel and equipment are at the Paramedic level of care; • Specialty Care indicates that the personnel and equipment meet specific and special needs required for inter-facility transport of critical care. Specialty Care need not operate on a 24-hour basis. Type of Radio Communication: The three methods of dispatching are: 1) provider – ambulances are dispatched directly by the ambulance service at their base station; 2) central – ambulances are dispatched by a radio utilized for dispatching more than just ambulance vehicles; and 3) regional – ambulances from several different providers are dispatched through a multiple city/county base station. In the majority of communities EMS may be reached by dialing 911. Areas not covered by 911 have a specific number(s) to call in emergencies. There are four levels of trauma system care in Oklahoma, one hospital is classified as Level I (highest), 2 as level II, 29 as Level III and the remainder are classified as Level IV. The higher the level, the more stringent criteria are in place such as 24-hour presence of surgeons, neurosurgeons, and the availability of advanced equipment and diagnostic ability. The following map shows the type of EMS coverage provided across the state. Resources & Services Directory for Head Injury, Injury Prevention Service, OSDH 18 Resources & Services Directory for Head Injury, Injury Prevention Service, OSDH 19 Acute Care Hospitals (Contact information subject to change) Acute care hospitals are the principal source of a wide array of services in the community including emergency and hospital care, varying levels of rehabilitation, and outpatient services. Hospital providers are responsible for giving referral to services provided in the hospital after discharge or referral to services in other locations. Acute care hospitals are usually accredited by The Joint Commission. Head injury patients who experience problems or lasting effects should return for care to the hospital where they received treatment, because history of the injury and care received are in the medical records, and physicians can better review the case. Local hospitals also provide basic health care through clinics and programs.

They provide specialized care for medical patients who are critically ill or have multi-system complications that require aggressive and continuous acute care services. Long term acute care hospitals have an average length of stay (LOS) of 25 days. They provide 6.5 to 8.5 nursing hours per day based on acuity (amount of nursing time needed to assist/teach patients in activities of daily living such as eating, grooming, and toileting.) The acuity of therapy is based on diagnosed need and patient tolerance. There are no maximums or minimums by guidelines and not all patients receive therapy. Patients are usually discharged to home with family or Home Health, a nursing home, a skilled nursing facility (SNF), assisted living, or rehabilitation.

Inpatient rehabilitation centers are usually accredited by The Joint Commission and seek accreditation of Certification of Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF). The number and types of services may vary according to patients’ needs. A comprehensive treatment program has the goal to reduce/overcome deficits following illness or injury and to assist individuals to attain their optimal level of mental and physical ability, and useful, productive activity. The process involves a planned, orderly sequence of multiple, coordinated services related to the total needs of the individual. Services may be delivered within acute care services, a separate hospital unit, separate facility, or on an outpatient basis as the patient’s condition improves. The scope of rehabilitation services for individuals with TBI is diverse, requiring careful diagnosis and assessment of physical, cognitive and behavioral impairments. The team of TBI rehabilitation specialists may include a physician, physiatrist, nurse, neuropsychologist, psychologist, recreational therapist, physical therapist, occupational therapist, speech/language pathologist, special educator, exercise physiologist, counselor, social worker, and case manager. When the patient is ready to benefit from rehabilitation, the patient/family and physician attempt to select a center that treats a large number of TBI patients and has the professional staff available. Many for-profit organizations/centers in Oklahoma provide outpatient rehabilitation services. Those centers are not included here. *CARF-accredited (Contact information subject to change) Valir Rehabilitation Hospital 700 NW 7th Street Oklahoma City, OK 73102 Phone: (405) 553-1196 Rehab Services, Deaconess Hospital* 5501 N Portand Oklahoma City, OK 73112 Phone: (405) 951-3400 Jim Thorpe Rehabilitation Hospital* Integris Baptist Medical Center 3300 Northwest Expressway, 3rd Floor Oklahoma City, OK 73112 Phone: (405) 949-3305 Jim Thorpe Rehabilitation Hospital* 4219 S Western Oklahoma City, OK 73109 Phone: (405) 644-5200 Rehab Center, Mercy Hospital 4300 W Memorial Rd Oklahoma City, OK 73120 Phone: (405) 752-3168 Rehab Center St. Anthony's Hospital 1000 N Lee, 6th Floor Oklahoma City, OK 73101 Phone: (405) 272-7386 Children’s Center 6800 NW 39th Expressway Bethany, OK 73008 Phone: 405/789-6711 RehabCare, Norman Regional Hospital* 901 N Porter Street Norman, OK 73070 Phone: (405) 307-3863 Resources & Services Directory for Head Injury, Injury Prevention Service, OSDH 28 RehabCare Program, Community Hospital 3100 SW 89th Street Oklahoma City, OK 73159 Phone: (405) 602-8100 St. Francis Broken Arrow 3000 S Elm Place Broken Arrow, OK 74012 Phone: (918) 455-3535 Muskogee Regional Hospital Rehabilitation 300 Rockefeller Drive Muskogee, OK 74401 Phone: (918) 682-5501 Broken Arrow Rehab Services* St. Francis Hospital 6161 S Yale Tulsa, OK 74136 Phone: 918/494-2200 FAX: 918/494-4299 Brookhaven 201 S Garnett Tulsa, OK 74128 Phone: (918) 438-4257 Kaiser Rehabilitation Center* Hillcrest Medical Center 1125 S Trenton Tulsa, OK 74120 Phone: (918) 579-7200 Bernson Rehabilitation Center St. John Medical Center 1923 S Utica Tulsa, OK 74101 Phone: (918) 744-2345 Tulsa Regional Medical Center 744 West Ninth Street Tulsa, OK 74127 Phone: (918) 587-2561 Comanche County Memorial Hospital* 3201 West Gore Blvd Lawton, OK 73505 Phone: (580) 355-8620 Fax: (580) 585-5576 Rehabilitation Unit* Southwestern Medical Center 5602 Southwest Lee Blvd Lawton, OK 73505 Phone: (580) 531-4704 George Nigh Rehab Institute 900 E Airport Rd Okmulgee, OK 74447 Phone: (918) 756-9211 RehabCare Unit Jane Phillips Episcopal Memorial Hospital 3500 E Frank Phillips Blvd Bartlesville, OK 74006 Phone: (918) 333-7200 Rehab Unit* McAlester Regional Health Center 1 Clark Bass Blvd McAlester, OK 74501 Phone: (918) 426-1800 Mercy Memorial Hospital of Southern Oklahoma 1011 14th NW Ardmore, OK 73401 Phone: (580) 223-5400 RehabCare Unit, St. Mary's Hospital* 305 S 5th St Enid, OK 73701 Phone: (580) 548-5072 RehabCare Unit, Valley View Hospital* 430 N Monta Vista Ada, OK 74820 Phone: (580) 332-2323 Resources & Services Directory for Head Injury, Injury Prevention Service, OSDH 29 RehabCare, Stillwater Medical Center 1323 W.

Vision is the dominant sense in the process of deriving meaning from what is seen. It is a learned and developed set of functions that involves many skills. It is estimated that 80%- 85% of our perception, learning, cognition and activities are made possible through vision. More than 50% of people with neurologic impairments such as traumatic brain injury, stroke, multiple sclerosis, etc., have visual and visual-cognitive disorders. The three main visual problems resulting from brain injury and stroke are visual field loss, intractable double vision, and visual/balance disorders. In many cases, a poorly developed visual system, or one that has been damaged, leads to processing difficulties for these individuals. A complete visual evaluation can determine if the problem is visually related and if the person can benefit from specific vision therapies.
