Bill > SB6267

This bill aims to authorize payment for natural, adoptive, and stepparents who provide personal care services to their minor children with developmental disabilities. The key provisions include: 1) The administration must request amendments to the Community First Choice program and applicable Developmental Disabilities Administration waivers to allow for such payments to the greatest extent possible under federal law. 2) If the amendments are not accepted, the administration must apply for a Section 1115 demonstration waiver to achieve the same goal. 3) The department must commence payments immediately upon receiving approval from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services.
