Global Waiver Taskforce: Department Solicits Requests for Stakeholder Participation
R.I. Government Agencies | Privacy Policy |
The Executive Office of Health and Human Services (EOHHS) was created by Governor Donald Carcieri to facilitate cooperation and coordination among the four state departments that administer Rhode Island's health and social service programs - the Department of Children, Youth and Families (DCYF), the Department of Elderly Affairs (DEA), the Department of Human Services (DHS), and the Department of Mental Health, Retardation and Hospitals (MHRH).
These departments collectively impact the lives of virtually all Rhode Islanders, providing direct services and benefits to over 300,000 citizens while working to protect the overall health, safety and independence of all Rhode Islanders.
The Executive Office of Health and Human Services, in collaboration with the directors of the Health and Human Services agencies, has established a taskforce to provide input on the planning and implementation of reforms to the RI Medicaid Program.
For information on the first Global Waiver Taskforce Meeting on 5/12/09, see "Global Waiver" button at left.
We encourage the many people and organizations that were interested in being on the taskforce, but were not selected to be a member, to stay involved and check back here for updates and information. We value your involvement and look forward to your input as the smaller workgroups of the taskforce are formed.
