An almost $1 billion shortfall in Indiana’s Medicaid program is fueling the implementation of a waitlist for the state’s home- and community-based services waiver program.  ... Last week, the [Family and Social Services Administration] FSSA announced that it was implementing a waiting list after the A&D waiver program reached maximum capacity.
