Expanding Stakeholder Knowledge of the Home and Community Based Services (HCBS) Settings Rule
Carli Friedman
Inclusion, v5 n3 p203-212 2017
The Home and Community Based Services (HCBS) settings rule (CMS 2249-F/2296-F) strictly enforces meaningful community-based settings for those receiving Medicaid HCBS funding. Stakeholders have the opportunity to impact states' setting rule plans and hold states accountable to ensure rules are truly community based. Yet, the complex rule can be inaccessible for the very people it will impact most. This exploratory study evaluates the HCBS Advocates Creating Transformation (ACT) program's ability to educate 86 stakeholders about the rule. Our findings suggest that the HCBS ACT program pilot was a useful intervention that can be replicated for education and outreach programs. Doing so can actively engage people with disabilities, their families, and their support staff in the policy process.
