00:00:00.200 --> 00:00:00.996
Question 62.

00:00:00.996 --> 00:00:04.181
Were any clinicians, consultants,
or managers rewarded for

00:00:04.181 --> 00:00:06.967
referrals, utilization, enrollment,
occupancy, or revenue growth?

00:00:06.967 --> 00:00:10.152
The 2023 report raises
a concern, not a

00:00:10.152 --> 00:00:10.550
finding.

00:00:10.550 --> 00:00:11.346
People served:

00:00:11.346 --> 00:00:14.133
Person-centered planning requires
informed options and conflict

00:00:14.133 --> 00:00:14.531
safeguards;

00:00:14.531 --> 00:00:16.920
disability law may protect
meaningful participation.

00:00:16.920 --> 00:00:17.716
David Medeiros:

00:00:17.716 --> 00:00:20.900
Reporting possible conflicts
may be protected under speech

00:00:20.900 --> 00:00:24.085
or retaliation rules only
when coverage and proof

00:00:24.085 --> 00:00:24.483
align.

00:00:24.483 --> 00:00:25.279
ABI Resources:

00:00:25.279 --> 00:00:28.464
ABI may challenge unequal
governmental treatment or contract

00:00:28.464 --> 00:00:31.649
action, but competition
alone is not a constitutional

00:00:31.649 --> 00:00:32.047
violation.

00:00:32.047 --> 00:00:34.037
Constitutional claims
need state action;

00:00:34.037 --> 00:00:37.222
beneficiary choice does not
guarantee ABI referrals or

00:00:37.222 --> 00:00:38.018
a contract.

00:00:38.018 --> 00:00:40.805
Classify the issue
before choosing a remedy.

00:00:40.805 --> 00:00:43.193
Preserve ownership, employment,
referrals, alternatives, disclosures,

00:00:43.193 --> 00:00:45.582
clinical need, authorizations,
claims, and outcomes.

00:00:45.582 --> 00:00:48.368
Apply Constitution, statute,
regulation, contract, then record.
