Catch Title:
Medicaid waiver programs-case management system.

Subject:
Medicaid waiver programs.

Summary/Major
Elements:

In 2013, the legislature passed Medicaid reform which
required the department of health to provide for a case management system for
the developmental disability waiver program that is free of conflicts of
interest.

This bill amends the conflict of interest requirement to
ensure that the requirement will not be administered to affect any client case
manager relationship existing and continuously maintained on or before July 1,
2014.

The
bill directs the department to apply for waivers or permissions to allow
exceptions to federal conflict free case management definitions for rural
areas.
