00:00:00.200 --> 00:00:00.990
Question 65.

00:00:00.990 --> 00:00:04.148
How did utilization and outcomes
compare between participants

00:00:04.148 --> 00:00:07.307
inside the connected network and
similar participants using...?

00:00:07.307 --> 00:00:10.465
The 2023 report raises
a concern, not a

00:00:10.465 --> 00:00:10.860
finding.

00:00:10.860 --> 00:00:11.650
People served:

00:00:11.650 --> 00:00:14.414
Person-centered planning requires
informed options and conflict

00:00:14.414 --> 00:00:14.808
safeguards;

00:00:14.808 --> 00:00:17.177
disability law may protect
meaningful participation.

00:00:17.177 --> 00:00:17.967
David Medeiros:

00:00:17.967 --> 00:00:21.126
Reporting possible conflicts
may be protected under speech

00:00:21.126 --> 00:00:24.284
or retaliation rules only
when coverage and proof

00:00:24.284 --> 00:00:24.679
align.

00:00:24.679 --> 00:00:25.469
ABI Resources:

00:00:25.469 --> 00:00:28.627
ABI may challenge unequal
governmental treatment or contract

00:00:28.627 --> 00:00:31.786
action, but competition
alone is not a constitutional

00:00:31.786 --> 00:00:32.181
violation.

00:00:32.181 --> 00:00:34.155
Constitutional claims
need state action;

00:00:34.155 --> 00:00:37.313
beneficiary choice does not
guarantee ABI referrals or

00:00:37.313 --> 00:00:38.103
a contract.

00:00:38.103 --> 00:00:40.867
Classify the issue
before choosing a remedy.

00:00:40.867 --> 00:00:43.236
Preserve ownership, employment,
referrals, alternatives, disclosures,

00:00:43.236 --> 00:00:45.605
clinical need, authorizations,
claims, and outcomes.

00:00:45.605 --> 00:00:48.368
Apply Constitution, statute,
regulation, contract, then record.
