Panel OKs Fee Designed To Avert Cuts to In-Home Care
Last week, the state Legislature's budget conference committee approved a proposal to levy a fee on the in-home care industry. The state would use the fee to draw down federal matching funds, which would be used to return funding to the in-home care industry and avert planned cuts to state in-home care services.
