    Questions raised about Medicaid reform plans

    TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) Despite pleas to slow down, Gov. Sam Brownback’s administration says it is unlikely to change plans to shift all state Medicaid services to managed care.

    The Senate Public Health and Welfare Committee wrapped up several days of testimony on the plan Monday. Several advocates for the developmentally disabled said the Brownback administration is moving too quickly with its Medicaid reform efforts.

    Currently, many of the state’s developmentally disabled are served by a Medicaid waiver system for home and community-based care.

    The administration is already accepting bids to contract three managed care companies to supply all state Medicaid services by next Jan. 1.

    The Topeka Capital-Journal reports that Brownback’s spokeswoman says the administration believes the changes will improve care and sustain the Medicaid program.
