As a concerned parent with a child on the CCC+ waiver, I am deeply troubled by the proposed changes under the Application for 1915(c) HCBS Waiver: Draft VA.004.05.03. I have already experienced the exhausting and painful process of submitting extensive supporting documentation for The Objective Written Documentation Form. This process is overwhelming for parents and caregivers, as it requires an immense amount of time, effort, and resources to gather the necessary paperwork. The toll it takes on families who are already struggling to care for their children cannot be overstated. 

I strongly oppose the Application for 1915(c) HCBS Waiver: Draft VA.004.05.03 section that focuses on amending rules set by HB909/SB488 when an (LRI) is the paid aide/attendant for the personal care service. The potential loss of the current system threatens the consistent and expert care my child requires, and this is a fear shared by many families in similar situations.
