DON'T MISS IT! Money Follows the Person Program: How Adult
Day Services Can Tap Into Existing Medicaid Funds New Live 90-Minute Audio
Conference and Webinar, Thursday, July 31, 2008, 1:30 - 3:00 PM EDT
The Deficit Reduction Act of 2005 created the Money Follows the Person (MFP)
Rebalancing Demonstration, the largest demonstration program in the history of
Medicaid. The goal of the project is to help reduce existing barriers to allow
people to live in the community in a meaningful way.
Medicaid funds that have been budgeted for institutional services can now be
used for home and community based services. The demonstration also contains a
nursing facility transition (NFT) program that identifies consumers in
institutions who wish to transition to the community and helps them do so.
Adult day service programs are part of the solution and a valuable means to
achieve the MFP program goals. This is an opportunity for adult services to tap
into funds from MFP grants in order to help Medicare recipients.
