HB25-1003
Sponsors: Rep Rebekah Stewart (D) Rep Max Brooks (R) Sen Lisa Cutter (D)
Committee: Senate Health & Human Services
Status: Committee hearing Mar 12th
Position: OPPOSE
HB-1003 is designed to deny home and community based services (HCBS) like private duty nursing (PDN) and certified nursing assistant (CAN) so that more children with Intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) are forced into intermediate care facilities (ICF) and out of the homes of their loving parents who are often PDNs and CNAs. This is done because the state receives more funding for children who are institutionalized instead of children who are cared for at home.
