Wisconsin DHS to create an HCBS minimum fee schedule

Wisconsin DHS to create an HCBS minimum fee schedule 
Open Minds, Gettysburg, PA; 8/15/24 
The Wisconsin Department of Health Services (DHS) is developing a minimum fee schedule for a subset of Medicaid home- and community-based services (HCBS) for which no specific rates exist in fee-for-service Medicaid. The minimum fee schedule will apply to adult family homes, community-based residential facilities, residential apartment complexes, supportive home care (SHC) agencies, and self-directed SHC. The affected programs include Family Care, Family Care Partnership, and Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE), which together serve nearly 57,000 older adults and adults with disabilities.
