Question on Florida ASD Legislation - Medicare Waiver for Developmental Disabilities

Thanks Charlotte! 

I am working on a post describing the Medicare Waiver for Developmental Disabilities and other posts on the Florida legislation.  The Medicare waiver is not on the top of my list because this waiver was unfunded.  The Florida legislature provided no specific appropriation to implement this part of the legislation.  The legislation also provides that the Agency for Health Care Administration (AHCA) may not implement the Medicare waiver without prior legislative approval.  My quick evaluation is that it will be quite some time before this part of the legislation helps any children or their families.

I hope to post the description of the Medicaid waiver soon.  In the meantime, so I can answer your question when I do, can you direct me to a website that discusses the Medicaid Waiver for Developmental Disabilities you mention?
