00:00:00.200 --> 00:00:01.003
Question 58.

00:00:01.003 --> 00:00:04.214
How often did clinicians recommend
additional services supplied

00:00:04.214 --> 00:00:06.622
by their own employer or affiliate?

00:00:06.622 --> 00:00:09.834
The 2023 report raises
a concern, not a

00:00:09.834 --> 00:00:10.235
finding.

00:00:10.235 --> 00:00:11.038
People served:

00:00:11.038 --> 00:00:13.848
Person-centered planning requires
informed options and conflict

00:00:13.848 --> 00:00:14.249
safeguards;

00:00:14.249 --> 00:00:16.658
disability law may protect
meaningful participation.

00:00:16.658 --> 00:00:17.460
David Medeiros:

00:00:17.460 --> 00:00:20.672
Reporting possible conflicts
may be protected under speech

00:00:20.672 --> 00:00:23.883
or retaliation rules only
when coverage and proof

00:00:23.883 --> 00:00:24.284
align.

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

00:00:25.087 --> 00:00:28.298
ABI may challenge unequal
governmental treatment or contract

00:00:28.298 --> 00:00:31.509
action, but competition
alone is not a constitutional

00:00:31.509 --> 00:00:31.911
violation.

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 --> 00:00:40.742
Classify the issue
before choosing a remedy.

00:00:40.742 --> 00:00:43.150
Preserve ownership, employment,
referrals, alternatives, disclosures,

00:00:43.150 --> 00:00:45.559
clinical need, authorizations,
claims, and outcomes.

00:00:45.559 --> 00:00:48.368
Apply Constitution, statute,
regulation, contract, then record.
