00:00:00.200 --> 00:00:01.003
Question 33.

00:00:01.003 --> 00:00:04.214
Were plans written in
plain language and an

00:00:04.214 --> 00:00:07.024
accessible form suited to
the participant’s disability?

00:00:07.024 --> 00:00:10.235
The 2023 report raises
a concern, not a

00:00:10.235 --> 00:00:10.636
finding.

00:00:10.636 --> 00:00:11.439
People served:

00:00:11.439 --> 00:00:14.249
Plans must support informed
participation, accessible language,

00:00:14.249 --> 00:00:17.059
consent, signatures, distribution,
risk planning, and review.

00:00:17.059 --> 00:00:17.862
David Medeiros:

00:00:17.862 --> 00:00:21.073
Documenting plan failures may
support petition or anti-retaliation

00:00:21.073 --> 00:00:24.284
theories, but protected activity
and causation need proof.

00:00:24.284 --> 00:00:25.087
ABI Resources:

00:00:25.087 --> 00:00:27.897
ABI may hold contract
or process interests;

00:00:27.897 --> 00:00:31.108
a missing plan does not
automatically become ABI's

00:00:31.108 --> 00:00:31.911
constitutional injury.

00:00:31.911 --> 00:00:33.918
Constitutional claims
need state action;

00:00:33.918 --> 00:00:37.129
beneficiary choice does not
guarantee ABI referrals or

00:00:37.129 --> 00:00:37.932
a contract.

00:00:37.932 --> 00:00:40.741
Classify the issue
before choosing a remedy.

00:00:40.741 --> 00:00:43.551
Preserve every plan version,
signature, delivery receipt,

00:00:43.551 --> 00:00:45.558
authorization, revision,
and back-up strategy.

00:00:45.558 --> 00:00:48.368
Apply Constitution, statute,
regulation, contract, then record.
