Home and Community-Based Services Waiver
Transition Period Extended for Compliance with Home and Community-Based Settings RuleThe Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) has extended the transition period for states to demonstrate compliance with the home and community-based settings criteria until March 17, 2022. 
This extension will allow more time for settings to come into compliance with the provisions of the rule and give time for CMS to clarify some of the policies and procedures of the rule.  
At this point, the Department of Health Services (DHS) will continue to move forward with determining compliance of residential and non-residential settings so that providers that are compliant can be assured they meet the requirements, and providers that do not meet compliance will have time to remediate any deficiency.
