15 Waiver Slots and Waiting Lists by Target Group, 2010 Total Slots: 1,420,365 Waiting List: Total 428,571

16 States with Largest Wait Lists for HCBS Waivers, 2010 (Total: 428,571) Texas – 125,385 on 6 wait lists Ave. wait time: 20 months Ohio – 44,293 on 3 wait lists Ave. wait time: 3 months Illinois – 33,114 on 3 wait lists Ave. wait time unknown Florida – 32,753 on 10 wait lists Ave. wait time: 39 months Indiana – 32,355 on 5 wait lists Ave. wait time: 18 months Maryland – 27,810 on 7 wait lists Ave. wait time: 41 months

17 The Institutional Bias in Medicaid LTC, 2008 Source: HCBS (Ng and Harrington, 2011), Institutional (CMS Form 64 Data, Medstat 2010; MSIS 2008 Data) Expenditures: $107 billion Participants: 4.8 million

18 Study Aims & Method Aim: To determine whether Medicaid HCBS waivers save money Methods Examine the national average Medicaid spending on waiver participants Examine the national average Medicaid spending on institutional participants who might be served in waivers Examine the cost savings to Medicaid when serving persons in waivers rather than institutions Data Sources 1.CMS Form 372 reports for HCBS waivers (n = 283 in 2008) 2.Estimation of housing costs through SSI and SSP

19 Medicaid Annual HCBS Savings, by Waiver Level of Care, 2008

20 Total Savings, 2008 ($m) US Total Savings - $61 Billion

21 States Can take Advantage of ACA Provisions State balancing incentive payment (for states that spend less than 50% on HCBS) -- 5% increase for 0-25% HCBS and 2% for 25-50% HCBS Community First Choice Option - Allows states to cover Personal Care for those with an institutional level up with incomes to 300% of SSI (receive 6% increase in federal match) – 19 states have no PCS program Allows HCBS waiver to become a state plan option for incomes up to 300% of SSI without cost neutrality requirements New regulations allows states to consolidate HCBS waivers Expanded Money Follows the Person program to transition individuals out of NHs

22 Medicaid HCBS : Conclusion Many gaps in coverage for waiver groups in some states Aged receive fewer expenditures per participant than DD Waiver service and cost caps impact on program growth and create unmet needs Large & long waiting lists for HCBS waiver programs in many states 19 states had no state plan personal care Wide inter-state variation in HCBS service provision and spending on services Concern that state may cutback because of deficits and not take advantage of ACA provisions
