Bill Summary

A bill for an act relating to human services; establishing an individual authorized budget reduction limit on reductions resulting from implementation of waiver reimagine phase II; requiring a cost-of-living adjustment in the waiver reimagine phase II methodology; amending Laws 2021, First Special Session chapter 7, article 13, section 73, as amended.

AI Summary

This bill establishes a limit on how much an individual's authorized budget can be reduced when a program called "waiver reimagine phase II" is implemented, preventing reductions of more than ten percent unless the individual's needs, as documented in their MnCHOICES assessment, have decreased. MnCHOICES is a system used for assessing the needs of individuals receiving disability waiver services. The bill also mandates that a cost-of-living adjustment be included in the methodology for determining these budgets, ensuring that the purchasing power of these budgets is maintained over time. This provision aims to protect individuals receiving waiver services from significant budget cuts and ensure their budgets keep pace with inflation.
