Good Morning Everyone,

 

As you all know, one of the new requirements established in the HCB Settings Rule is the need to have a lease or a legally enforceable written agreement between the individual receiving Medicaid HCB residential services and the residential service provider.   I wanted to see if any of your states had examples of such a lease or legally enforceable written agreement that does a good job of explaining the residents’ rights and would be understandable by individuals with ID/DD? 

 

 

Thank you

 

 

Debra
