756 These programs allow states to waive usual Medicaid rules about eligibility “entitlement” for Medicaid services. Rather than having to provide HCBS services to any person who meets Medicaid eligibility requirements, a state may create a program for specific populations, such as aged people, traumatic brain injury individuals, or people with MR/DD who meet the income eligibility.

757 Information was collected from state agency Web sites, planning documents, Olmstead and task force reports, and legislative budget and research documents. Additional information was obtained from state agency officials through telephone and e-mail communications. Many states have created task forces to consider strategies for addressing concerns raised by the 1999 Supreme Court Olmstead decision that inappropriate institutionalization of people with disabilities constitutes discrimination as defined by ADA. Telephone interviews were conducted with several key stakeholders in each state. (Names and titles of these stakeholders are provided in Appendix 4.A). Selected comments from these interviews appear in the state case studies. The views and recommendations of these stakeholders on needed federal reforms are also summarized in the conclusion to this chapter.
