IF YOU WANT TO KEEP YOUR MED WAIVER SERVICES - PLEASE REPLY

[Guest guest]

Anyone who is receiving the Medwaiver for their child or adult with a developmental disability needs to respond to this email, if you have been notified that your funding will be cut or you sent in a public records request to APD asking how the iBudget will affect you. 

If you have sent in the public records request that I sent out a few weeks ago or you picked it up at the Autism Society of Florida table at the CARD Conference, I need you to let me know what the reply was from APD. A couple of you have sent me what you received back, but I need more data. 

APD is implementing the iBudget in areas 1 and 2 (Panhandle area) and it is my understanding that everyone is receiving a cut in funding, which will result in a cut in services. This is happening even though APD stated that they would not be cutting services to our loved ones. 

If we don't act now, we will all have to live with what APD and Senate bill 1516 will do to our services. Please don't sit back and do nothing. If you don't want to lose services, then you need to respond to this email.
