DHHS-OADS Proposed HCBS Lifespan Waiver Statewide Stakeholder Informational Tour

Proposed HCBS Lifespan Waiver Statewide
Stakeholder Informational Tour
Please join the Office of Aging and Disability Services (OADS) as we offer a series of question-and-answer sessions on the proposed Lifespan Waiver. These sessions will allow stakeholders to learn more about the proposed waiver concept.

We will begin each session with a brief high-level review of the Lifespan design and updates based on feedback from the Concept Paper comment period. Please prepare for the session by reviewing the Lifespan Concept paper document before the meeting. The plain language Executive Summary of the Concept Paper is also available for review.

Please use the link below to register for the events. The meeting spaces have a person limit, and we want to house the meeting adequately, so we need to know how many people to expect. Meeting locations may change depending on the size of the response to the sessions. If that happens, we will notify registrants.

We are hosting sessions with Providers, Waiver Members, and their Family Members. To promote active interaction, providers will be asked only to attend the provider-specific sessions.
