Providers of services to adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities are at risk of receiving no funding increases for at least four years. HB 5989 would provide an inflationary, one-time rate increase for these pivotal services.
The legislation would result in a 2.3% increase that would cost approximately $4.7 million in general revenue.
The bill was introduced by Rep. Matthew Dawson and awaits a hearing in the House Finance Committee.
