Automated Waiver System - Public Waivers Menu Help

Public Waivers Menu

This menu provides access to the publicly available Waivers functions. After waivers have been entered into the system, they are retained in a database for review. Waivers can be retrieved in any of the following ways: by Waiver Plan Number, Waiver Control Number, Provision, Statute, Regulation, State, Regional Location, New/Updated, or Waiver Type. Waivers are presented in a list that allows you to select a waiver by clicking its Control number. The waiver is then displayed in the short form, which provides the option for displaying the waiver in the full report form. After the desired waiver is displayed, it can be printed, using the print capabilities of your Web browser.

To access the Waivers database, select Waivers from the Main Menu. The Waivers in Database submenu will be displayed. Click the desired option. Instructions for each option are provided below.
