ACF and Assisted Living Members Encouraged to Register for DOH Webinar on HCBS Settings Rule and Person-Centered Care
Adult care facility (ACF) and assisted living (AL) members are reminded that the Department of Health (DOH) will be providing a webinar on Aug. 17th at 2 p.m. regarding recent guidance on the federal Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) Settings Rule and Person-Centered Care. Be sure to register.
As a reminder, guidance was issued on July 14th detailing requirements related to the federal HCBS Settings Rule, along with a Person-Centered Care Template. The guidance outlined requirements for all ACFs, as well as requirements for ACF/AL providers that have residents in receipt of Medicaid-covered HCBS.

LeadingAge NY has submitted several questions to DOH, which we hope will be addressed in the webinar. Members are encouraged to let us know what your questions are.
