Short Statement:
We estimate that the number of respondents had decreased by 1 (48 to 47) in addition to the number of responses decreasing by 33 (315 to 282). The response decrease can largely be attributed to a regulatory provision (42 CFR 441.301(b)(6)) effective March 17, 2014, that allows states to combine target groups within one waiver. Previously states were required to develop separate home and community based waivers to serve more than one target group. Under the regulation, states have combined target groups into one waiver and gained administrative efficiencies. The ability to combine target populations within one waiver does not change the cost neutrality or quality assurance requirements. Therefore, no substantive changes have been made to the CMS 372(S) form that collects this data. Although, non-substantive changes have been made to further align the entry and display of service names with how they are displayed in the approved waiver. Changes can be found in the attached crosswalk.
