DSHS & Governor Proposed Budget Reduction Options (updated 10-27-11)

Last week, Governor Gregoire outlined her 2012 Supplemental Budget proposal.  In the analysis attached, we have compared the state agencies' proposals (released earlier) with the Governor's recommendations. http://agingwa.org/wp-content/uploads/DSHS-and-Governor-Budget_-Supplemental-2012-_as-of-10.27.111.pdf

Our analysis includes Medicaid coverage of services provided by boarding homes, adult family homes, adult day programs and psychiatric hospitals, health care insurance proposals for state-paid in-home caregivers (Individual Providers ~ IPs) as well as suggested cuts to specific rate add-ons for nursing homes and boarding homes.

Please contact pmontgomery@agingwa.org with specific questions or for additional assistance.
