The Arc supports our new Coordinator, who reports that Nebraska's Medicaid managed care program has some positive aspects. For example, children with special health care needs are exempt from mandatory enrollment in Medicaid managed care, and Medicaid has hired consumer representatives to attend meetings around improving Medicaid access to persons with disabilities. There are concerns: In rural areas, it is still difficult to access health services and non-English speaking communities have difficulty obtaining adequate information in their own language. Respite services received a boost last legislative session when funding was identified to hire six respite Coordinators around the state to help families identify respite services. Next year, advocates hope to increase the money available for this much needed service.
