DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH SERVICES TO HOLD TOWN HALL
MEETINGS ON LONG TERM CARE SUSTAINABILITY INITIATIVES
MADISON—The Department of Health Services is seeking input from
consumers, community partners, integrated health systems, and providers on
its Long Term Care Sustainability Initiatives.
"We have worked extensively with consumers, advocates and partners
to develop reforms that meet the needs of those individuals we serve and
ensure Wisconsin's long term care programs are sustainable," said
Department of Health Services Secretary Dennis G. Smith. "We are
taking our proposals on the road to get additional feedback from people
around the state."
Individuals who are interested in speaking will have up to five minutes
to share their ideas at the forums. Those who would like to share their
ideas and do not wish to speak are encouraged to submit their written
feedback at the meeting or through the Department's online survey at http://www.dhs.wisconsin.gov/ltcreform/.
