The bill appropriates funds for Medicaid home- and community-based services in Hawaii for fiscal years 2025-2026 and 2026-2027. The funds aim to incentivize accepting and caring for Medicaid beneficiaries, especially those with complex needs, pay wages necessary for the recruitment and retention of staff, and consider updating the aging physical infrastructure of many of the State's facilities. The bill emphasizes the importance of focusing on home- and community-based services providers who serve groups with high utilization of services and who have gone the longest without a rate update.
