00:00:00.200 --> 00:00:01.004
Question 10.

00:00:01.004 --> 00:00:04.218
Does the program measure
independence, dignity, safety, and

00:00:04.218 --> 00:00:07.432
community participation, or mainly
authorizations, utilization, and cost?

00:00:07.432 --> 00:00:10.646
The 2023 report raises
a concern, not a

00:00:10.646 --> 00:00:11.048
finding.

00:00:11.048 --> 00:00:11.852
People served:

00:00:11.852 --> 00:00:14.664
Government Medicaid decisions may
implicate accessible planning,

00:00:14.664 --> 00:00:17.477
disability access, fair process,
and community integration.

00:00:17.477 --> 00:00:18.280
David Medeiros:

00:00:18.280 --> 00:00:21.495
Speaking, petitioning, or helping
people assert disability rights

00:00:21.495 --> 00:00:23.905
may be protected from
governmental retaliation.

00:00:23.905 --> 00:00:24.709
ABI Resources:

00:00:24.709 --> 00:00:27.923
ABI may advocate and
preserve records, but its

00:00:27.923 --> 00:00:31.138
own constitutional claim
still needs state action and

00:00:31.138 --> 00:00:32.343
a protected interest.

00:00:32.343 --> 00:00:34.352
Constitutional claims
need state action;

00:00:34.352 --> 00:00:37.566
beneficiary choice does not
guarantee ABI referrals or

00:00:37.566 --> 00:00:38.370
a contract.

00:00:38.370 --> 00:00:41.182
Classify the issue
before choosing a remedy.

00:00:41.182 --> 00:00:44.397
Preserve the participant's plans,
notices, choices, safety reviews,

00:00:44.397 --> 00:00:45.602
and service history.

00:00:45.602 --> 00:00:48.414
Apply Constitution, statute,
regulation, contract, then record.
