Senate discussing changes in Medicaid Home and Community Care waiver

Disability Scoop reports that the Senate is considering changes for using the Medicaid Home and Community based care waiver as part of the health care reform changes. Changes will be discussed at a meeting tomorrow, which include, in part: ending waiting lists, requirement of meeting institutional level of care, giving states more leeway with income requirements, and increasing the federal match by 1 per cent. You can see the entire list at the link above.
