Service Facilitators have become largely ineffective. Hopefully ‘The Broker’
system has been tried and tested to prevent people from falling off Waivers
when S.F.s become unreliable. The Disabled Go With Out Services, being
cut off suddenly when S.F.s disappear because they are not well-trained.
The Savings From the Elimination of S.F. should go directly to waiver recipients/care
providers and Direct Support Personnel.
May this not be ‘a good idea on paper’ for which systems and staffing
is NOT prepared to deliver. You are NOT using the Immigrant Contractors
Caught working as CSBs AND DMAS double-dipping are you?
