Kentucky SB345 would allow community interveners to be covered under the Michelle P. waiver program for Medicaid.
Kentucky SB345 creates a new section in the Kentucky Revised Statutes to define "community intervener" as a trained service provider for deaf-blind individuals. If approved by the federal Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, these interveners would be recognized providers within the Michelle P. waiver program, offering services to support independent living and community participation. The Department for Medicaid Services must request federal authorization to implement this change and may delay the program's launch until approval is granted.
