SECTION KB-002M - PARTICIPANT AUTHORIZATION, ROLE LIMITATION & PERMITTED ACTIVITY RULE
Home Ahead may, where appropriate and permitted, assist participants in communicating with, coordinating with, obtaining information from, following up with, organizing information for, or facilitating communication with licensed professionals, qualified providers, service providers, institutions, organizations, landlords, lenders, real estate professionals, mortgage professionals, lawyers, accountants, insurers, housing providers, government agencies, community organizations, or other relevant parties.
However, participant authorization alone does not make an activity permissible.
A participant's request, consent, authorization, instruction, preference, convenience, or desire does not override:
Applicable laws
Regulatory requirements
Licensing requirements
Professional restrictions
Privacy requirements
Compliance obligations
Program limitations
Role limitations
Organizational policies
For Home Ahead to perform an activity on behalf of a participant, all applicable conditions should generally be satisfied, including:
Participant authorization where required.
Legal permissibility.
Regulatory permissibility.
Compliance with applicable professional requirements.
Consistency with Home Ahead's permitted role.
Consistency with applicable program requirements.
Consistency with privacy, consent, confidentiality, and information-sharing requirements.
Home Ahead may assist, coordinate, facilitate, educate, organize, explain, communicate, follow up, support, and advocate within its permitted role.
Home Ahead should not perform activities that require professional licensing, registration, authorization, representation, certification, or designation unless the individual performing the activity is properly licensed, authorized, qualified, and acting within the applicable professional framework.
Participant authorization should not be interpreted as expanding Home Ahead's legal authority, regulatory authority, professional authority, licensing authority, or permitted scope of activity.
The purpose of this rule is to ensure that participant support, coordination, facilitation, and advocacy remain helpful, compliant, appropriately limited, and consistent with applicable legal and regulatory requirements.
