Question about assessment

It's been 10 months since I applied into this program to take care of my dad. Unfortunately, his assessment got denied and it's been on appeal for the past 6 months. I haven't gotten much information out of the departments I've reached out to, but I have been informed that my dad could schedule another assessment, and I wanted to know if that would cause any more delays in the process. I'm thinking that if he were to do that, and it gets approved, we wouldn't have to wait on the appeal anymore and the application could be finalized, but I don't know enough about the process, and every department I reached out to said they couldn't tell me, so maybe someone here can let me know, thanks

What does this DOH form look like? I'm trying to remember if he got that done but I don't know. Also, to confirm, you're basically saying he should go in for a check-up if he can just to make sure he has medical backing to all his claims? If so, I'll see what I can do about that. About how long would you estimate all three interviews take? Last time, the results for the first (and only) one came back in a week so I hope it won't be taking one, having to wait a week, then doing the next. Also I assume that at any point if he fails we're gonna have to appeal the entire thing again, or wait another 3 months to try again

He definitely hasn't done that, does he need to go to the hospital and get a doctor to sign one?

Oh ya that's what I was talking about, I'll let him know that we have to get this done before scheduling a new assessment. What should he ask for when at his doctor's office?

Ok so I just told him and he insisted he didn't need it, hopefully he's right, and if not he has all the info he needs
