This page combines allegations of Medicaid financial waste and

2
00:00:05,660 --> 00:00:08,460
disability segregation. They require separate evidence tracks. Financial track:

3
00:00:08,460 --> 00:00:11,135
identify the audit, program, amount, payment period, eligibility rule,

4
00:00:11,135 --> 00:00:15,240
payee, correction, recovery, and final finding. Access track: document the

00:00:15,240 --> 00:00:18,289
person’s eligibility, requested HCBS, assessment, preference, wait time, interim

00:00:18,289 --> 00:00:24,696
services, institutional risk, reasonable modifications, and final decision. Then

00:00:24,696 --> 00:00:27,495
test the claimed connection between dollars and denied access

00:00:27,495 --> 00:00:33,218
with budgets, appropriations, waiver capacity, staffing, service authorizations, and

timelines. An improper payment does not automatically prove fraud

or cause a waitlist. A long wait or isolation can

11
00:00:39,937 --> 00:00:42,612
raise Olmstead questions, but does not alone establish unlawful

12
00:00:42,612 --> 00:00:46,842
segregation. A complaint, archive, or whistleblower account is not

00:00:46,842 --> 00:00:49,828
an investigation or finding. Build both records at david-medeiros.com/two-track-review.
