The Kansas Department of Aging and Disability Services (KDADS) will host additional informational sessions for persons receiving Medicaid services; family members of persons receiving services; and providers of Medicaid services.
From KDADS: "The purpose of these sessions are to provide updates and information about the implementation of the KanCare comprehensive managed care program effective January 1, 2013, and to respond to any questions you have."
It's important to note that long-term support services for Kansans with developmental disabilities are not scheduled to be wrapped into KanCare until 1 year after the program is initiated. However, persons with DD and their families will still be auto-enrolled into the program from the beginning, due to the fact that medical services will be included in the KanCare managed care program. For these reasons, recipients of service and providers of service alike are encouraged to continue attending any of these forum opportunities to learn more about the program, ask questions and express concerns!
As with the previous round of meetings, state officials are offering separate meetings for providers of service and recipients of service - all participants are asked to RSVP!
Please take a look at the attached document for details.
