For the Waiver Reset:

Send a comment to Indiana's Division of Disability and Rehabilitative Services by August 8th.​

​

Public comments for the Indiana Medicaid Waiver Reset will be open from July 9th - August 8th. They must take public comments into consideration, so this is the most effective way to ensure your input is considered. 

​​

In your comments, include brief examples that show the impact of the service you are discussing. This reset contains a variety of changes, so be clear about which parts you find beneficial versus detrimental to keep your feedback balanced and clear. Remind legislators and committee members that reducing costs now by pushing them farther down the road only amplifies the financial burden for us all.

​

You can submit your comments by emailing:

For other healthcare legislation:

Reach out to your state and congressional legislators about funding services for individuals with disabilities and developmental diagnoses.
