Fiscal Detail and Notes
The bill requires the Department of Health and Human Services to file an application to amend the MaineCare Benefits Manual, Section 19 Home and Community Benefits for the Elderly and for Adults with Disabilities program to include prepared meals to be delivered to individuals on the waiver who are also experiencing transitions of care, having debilitating or acute illnesses or are primarily homebound. As PL 2015, c. 267 includes appropriations and allocations for this service, no additional funding is included in this bill.
