Delaware Governor's Commission on Community-Based Alternatives for Individuals with Disabilities

Lewin contact Lisa Chimento

The Delaware Governor's Commission on Community-Based Alternatives for Individuals with Disabilities commissioned The Lewin Group to review and analyze the challenges and opportunities the State may face when undertaking a Money Follows the Person or “rebalancing” initiative. In essence, the study seeks to evaluate the manner in which Medicaid recipients access Medicaid benefits—either in institutions or in the community—and whether there exist policies or procedures that favor institutional placement over home and community-based services. It also reviews State initiatives on rebalancing and models the potential financial impact of Delaware’s adoption of a Money Follows the Person program.

"Throughout the engagement, Lewin consultants listened to us and delivered superb analyses and thoughtful guidance–not canned solutions."  NONPROFIT HEALTH SYSTEM
