Increasing Medicaid Rates: A Critical Step to Support Home-Based Care
To address the growing challenges facing the healthcare system, the Homecare and Hospice Association of Utah (HHAU) calls for an urgent increase in Medicaid reimbursement rates for Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waivers, Private Duty Nursing (PDN), and Home Health. These critical services form the backbone of home-based care, enabling individuals to receive the medical attention and support they need in their homes, while saving tax dollars and alleviating strain on hospitals and long-term care facilities.
