Dear Esteemed Members of the Connecticut General Assembly CGA, Connecticut Community Care, Sandata EVV, and Gainwell Technologies, We are writing to express our deepest gratitude for your swift and effective response to the critical issue impacting the Connecticut Medicaid Acquired Brain Injury (ABI) Waiver Program. Your dedication to resolving the challenges related to the authorization of companion services beyond December 31, 2023, is not just commendable; it is a beacon of hope for many individuals and families in our community. The potential disruption of necessary support services posed a significant risk to those who rely on the ABI Waiver Program. The thoughtfulness and urgency with which you addressed this matter reflect your unwavering commitment to the well-being of our most vulnerable citizens. Your actions exemplify the highest standards of public service and compassionate governance. I also want to acknowledge the importance of the precautionary steps that were recommended. Encouraging open communication with care managers, alerting agency providers, and confirming companion hours are crucial steps that ensure the continuity of care for those in need. These measures not only safeguard the interests of ABI waiver consumers but also fortify the trust and confidence we place in our public institutions and service providers. Your collaborative efforts have not only averted a crisis but have also strengthened the framework of support that upholds the dignity and quality of life for individuals living with brain injuries. It is through such partnerships and proactive problem-solving that we build a more inclusive and caring society. Thank you once again for your exemplary leadership and for ensuring that the Connecticut Medicaid Acquired Brain Injury Waiver Program continues to serve as a lifeline to those who depend on it. Your dedication to addressing these challenges head-on has made a profound difference in the lives of countless individuals and their families. With heartfelt appreciation and respect, ABI Resources
