Developmental Disabilities Division (DDD)

The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) approved Hawaii’s amendment to the 1915(c) I/DD Waiver. The amendment is approved effective June 1, 2017 and replaces the waiver approval document that was effective 7/1/16. The amendment adds two new services, Community Learning Services (CLS) and Additional Residential Supports. It also revises the rate methodology based on the completion of a rate study; adds budget authority to participant direction; increases limits for Environmental Accessibility Adaptations and Vehicular Modification due to increased market costs; and makes other programmatic changes.
