Summary Class action alleged the state has impermissibly waitlisted individuals enrolled in the HCBS^c waiver rather than providing additional services. One factor leading to this action was a Dept. of Medical Services directive which restricted new or expanded services to individuals who can no longer remain in the family home due to caregiver incapacity or other critical situations. Progress Settlement & lawsuit dismissed (state agreed to change its policies so that individuals would receive all the services they have been determined to require).
