State agencies providing home and community-based services (HCBS) face new requirements and higher expectations to enhance services, including the proposed Access Rule from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS). Federal funds can be accessed using Medicaid matching funds to support these enhancements.
Join ADvancing States on a webinar that takes attendees step by step through opportunities to access enhanced federal matching funds. Participants will discover several options to finance technologies that address the direct care workforce shortage and related challenges. This webinar will include a discussion on CMS' "90/10" funding for technology, as well as new funding for electronic provider registries. It will also provide attendees with information on how to apply for funding and discuss what information is needed, along with examples of successful state projects.
