明尼苏达州在两年内停止发放新的HCBS许可证,以便使供应商供应与需求匹配,并解决欺诈问题。 Minnesota halts new HCBS licenses for two years to match provider supply with demand and address fraud concerns.

明尼苏达州自1月起两年来暂停其家庭和社区服务方案的新许可证,以解决供应商申请和许可证的激增,远远超过需要护理的人数。 Minnesota has paused new licenses for its Home and Community-Based Services program for two years, starting in January, to address a surge in provider applications and licenses far outpacing the number of people needing care. 由州法律授权的这项举措跟踪了人们对方案完整性的关切以及目前对包括自闭症治疗和住房方案在内的人类服务中的欺诈调查。 The move, authorized by state law, follows concerns over program integrity and ongoing fraud investigations in human services, including autism treatment and housing programs. 人力服务部将停止所有新的许可证发放工作,取消待决申请,并听取供应商的批评,他们称自己是盲目的,已经投资于服务。 The Department of Human Services will halt all new licensing and cancel pending applications, drawing criticism from providers who say they were blindsided and had already invested in services. 该决定旨在使供应商能力与实际需求相一致,同时改进联邦调查多个公共方案欺诈指控时的监督。 The decision aims to align provider capacity with actual demand while improving oversight amid federal probes into alleged fraud across multiple public programs.
