ADAPT presses nation's governors at DC meeting
Washington, DC, Feb. 21, 2003 -- Members of ADAPT from the capitol area and neighboring states are pressing the nation's governors at their annual winter meeting this coming week to support programs and funding that will change the nation's "institutional bias." ADAPt wants the National Governors' Assn. to support the Bush administration budget proposal of $1.75 BILLION incentive funding to states to implement the U.S. Supreme Court Olmstead decision by adopting policies to ensure individuals can use their Medicaid funds for in-home services.
