SUSTAINABILITY INITIATIVES
MADISON—The Department of Health Services is seeking input from

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
