Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Deaths of individuals with developmental disabilities (DD) due to poor quality of care have been highlighted in the media. There have been concerns raised about inadequate safeguards for such individuals receiving care through state Medicaid home and community-based services waivers. CMS approves and oversees these waivers. Safeguards include the review of, and follow-up action to, critical incidents -- events that harm or have the potential to harm waiver beneficiaries. This report examines the extent to which states: (1) include, as a critical incident, deaths among individuals with DD in waiver programs; (2) have basic components in place to review such deaths; and (3) have adopted additional components to review deaths.

Book excerpt: In 1981 Congress authorized the first legislation that allowed states to waive certain requirements for long-term institutional care and still receive medicaid money for services which occurred instead of institutional care. This allowed states to provide home and community-based services to individuals who were eligible. Such "HCBS waivers" permitted states to both deinstitutionalize and divert new admissions from long-term care facilities and state hospitals. State have to assure the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) that the per capita cost to provide waiver services would not exceed the per capita cost of providing institutional care

This book was released on 2001-02-27 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Among the issues confronting America is long-term care for frail, older persons and others with chronic conditions and functional limitations that limit their ability to care for themselves. Improving the Quality of Long-Term Care takes a comprehensive look at the quality of care and quality of life in long-term care, including nursing homes, home health agencies, residential care facilities, family members and a variety of others. This book describes the current state of long-term care, identifying problem areas and offering recommendations for federal and state policymakers. Who uses long-term care? How have the characteristics of this population changed over time? What paths do people follow in long term care? The committee provides the latest information on these and other key questions. This book explores strengths and limitations of available data and research literature especially for settings other than nursing homes, on methods to measure, oversee, and improve the quality of long-term care. The committee makes recommendations on setting and enforcing standards of care, strengthening the caregiving workforce, reimbursement issues, and expanding the knowledge base to guide organizational and individual caregivers in improving the quality of care.
