The Family and Social Services Administration is proposing changes to several existing Home and Community Based Waivers, as well as the creation of a new HCBS waiver. The new waiver, PathWays for Aging, will be submitted to implement a new Long-Term Services and Supports waiver in July of 2024.
This new waiver, PathWays for Aging, is specifically for individuals 60 and older who are currently being supported through the Aged and Disabled waiver.
Additional changes are being proposed to:
- the Family Supports Waiver,
- the Aged & Disabled waiver (to be renamed Health & Wellness),
- the Community Integration and Habilitation waiver, and
- the Traumatic Brain Injury waiver.
WAIVER PUBLIC COMMENT PERIOD: Nov. 8 – Dec. 14, 2023
As part of the plan to implement the proposed changes, FSSA is presenting the affected waivers for public comment in order to gather stakeholder comments and feedback regarding the proposed waiver changes in the existing waivers, and information about the new PathWays Waiver.
