Robert Sarvis on Welfare & Poverty

	Robert Sarvis on Welfare & Poverty

Foster a competitive market for community-based services

Q: How will you help expand access to home and community based services (HCBS) in your state?

A: Preference for cash subsidies, which empower patients to choose the best care options for their individual needs, and which foster a competitive market in which more providers offer home- and community-based services at a reasonable price. Investigation and prosecution of fraudulent schemes that channel patients, especially children, disabled, and mental-health patients, into expensive facilities away from home/community to reap federal dollars at taxpayer expense.
