The Alabama Medicaid Agency is seeking public comment on its proposal to renew the Alabama Home and Community-Based Intellectual Disabilities Waiver (ID Waiver).

The waiver supports Alabama citizens who have a diagnosis of Intellectual Disabilities and who would otherwise require the level of care offered in an Intermediate Care Facility for Individuals with Intellectual Disabilities (ICF/IID) institution to remain in the community. The waiver provides services such as day services and in-home supports.

A copy of the proposed changes can be found on the Alabama Medicaid Agency website. Click here to view waiver documents. 

The comment period is open until June 24, 2019. 

Written comments regarding the proposed waiver renewal are welcome and should be mailed to Samantha McLeod, Associate Director, to: Alabama Medicaid Agency, Long Term Care Division, P.O. Box 5624, Montgomery, Alabama 36103-5624; or
via e-mail to 
samantha.mcleod@medicaid.alabama.gov.
