• Mandates APD participation in transition planning for certain young adults and requires posting of updated priority category data for waiver enrollment at least every 5 days.
• Establishes a Statewide Family Care Council to review local reports, advise APD on policy, and coordinate consistent input from local family care councils, with revamped membership criteria, reporting requirements, and administrative support.
• Clarifies that certain Medicaid-eligible persons may voluntarily enroll in managed care rather than being automatically enrolled.
• Expands the pilot program statewide for individuals with developmental disabilities by making enrollment voluntary, specifying a weekly data exchange among agencies, creating a call center for enrollment assistance, expanding available benefits, and requiring individualized assessments within 5 days of enrollment.
• Directs APD to contract for a study of the current budget allocation algorithm, including possible improvements or alternatives that better fit waiver expenditure needs.
• These provisions are set to take effect on July 1, 2025, marking a significant advancement in Florida’s commitment to improve the quality of life and independence for individuals with disabilities.
