Report Description:
We have performed reviews in several States in response to a congressional request concerning the number of deaths and cases of abuse of residents with developmental disabilities in group homes.
Federal waivers permit States to furnish an array of home and community-based services to Medicaid beneficiaries with developmental disabilities so that they may live in community settings and avoid institutionalization. The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) requires States to implement a critical incident reporting system to protect the health and welfare of Medicaid beneficiaries receiving waiver services.
