GEORGIA: House Medicaid Budget Includes 10% Rate Increase for Home and Community Based Services

​Last week, the House Medicaid budget was unveiled and included a 10% rate increase for HCBS providers. HCAOA members, Dave Lamb and Rusty Paul, worked with the Chairman and the committee budget analyst to make the case for this increase. In addition, Dave Lamb and Eddie Grogan had the Speaker of the House at their home care facility this summer and showed him the need. This is a great example of grassroots advocacy! Congratulations on this achievement.
