DRW Opposes Proposed Federal Effort to Relax Rule Aimed at Assuring Access to Medicaid services

Wisconsin state capitol during the daytime.

As a disability advocacy organization, we are particularly concerned about how the proposed changes to the Access Rule at 42 CFR 447.203-204 would impact access to needed care for the thousands of people with disabilities who are covered by Medicaid in Wisconsin.

needs of people with disabilities; Medicaid is no exception. We urge CMS to withdraw the proposed changes.
