HCBS Federal Final Rule Review

HCBS Federal Final Rules Overview The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) implemented new regulations for Medicaid’s 1915(c) Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waivers on March 17, 2014. Key elements of the rule include: PERSON-CENTERED SERVICE PLAN PROVIDER SETTINGS PERSON-CENTERED PLANNING PROCESS CONFLICT-FREE CASE MANAGEMENT Providers of HCBS for the individual must not provide case management or develop the person-centered service plan, unless the provider is the only willing and qualified provider in the geographic area (30 miles) Reflect the needs identified through an assessment, as well as the individual's strengths, preferences, identified goals, and desired outcomes Individual leads the process to the maximum extent possible and is provided information and support to make informed choices regarding his/her services, as well as providers The setting is integrated in and supports full access of individuals receiving HCBS to the greater community, giving the individual initiative and independence in making life choices 2016-2017 First round provider setting requirements and all other HCBS Final Rules components effective in Kentucky HCBS regulations Jan 1, 2019 Second round provider setting requirements will be effective and implemented in Kentucky HCBS regulations
