Bill Summary

Requires the Department of Human Services to, at least annually, provide each provider of home and community-based services an updated, detailed rate sheet for each funded client served by the provider. Provides that the Department must also, within 60 working days of receipt by the Department's Division of Developmental Disabilities of any valid completed and correct documentation detailing provider-based information to the Department, which changes a client's reimbursement rate, issue an updated client rate sheet to the provider.
AI Summary
This bill amends the Department of Human Services Act to establish new requirements for how the Department of Human Services provides rate information to providers of home and community-based services for individuals with developmental disabilities. Specifically, the bill mandates that the Department must provide each service provider with an updated, detailed rate sheet or rate summary at least once per year for each funded client they serve. Furthermore, when a provider submits valid documentation that would change a client's reimbursement rate, the Department is required to issue an updated client rate sheet within 60 working days of receiving that documentation. The goal of these provisions appears to be increasing transparency and ensuring that service providers have current and accurate information about their reimbursement rates for clients receiving developmental disability services in home and community-based settings.
