Take our survey about ending segregation!

Friends –

Take our survey about ending segregation!

Background information:

There are new federal regulations for Medicaid home and community-based waivers.  These new regulations have requirements for person-centered planning.  These new regulations also describe how settings must be integrated in the community.  These new regulations are for all home and community-based waivers.  Click here for more information.

The Department of Public Welfare (DPW) has to submit to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) a draft transition plan for making sure all waivers follow the new federal regulations.  The draft transition plan will soon be out for public comment.  Click hear to learn about the Department’s upcoming public forums.
