RESOLVE Forum

The Division of Quality Assurance, Bureau of Assisted Living (BAL) and the Division of Medicaid Services, Bureau of Adult Long Term Care Services (BALTCS) are partnering with the LeadingAge Wisconsin, Wisconsin Assisted Living Association (WALA), Wisconsin Center for Assisted Living (WiCAL), and Disability Service Provider Network (DSPN) to host online RESOLVE forums.

The purpose of RESOLVE forums is to create opportunities for BAL, BALTCS and the assisted living provider community to share information, address regulatory and funding issues, and to provide the opportunity to engage in interactive, productive, and meaningful dialogue.

How to Submit Questions

RESOLVE forums will provide opportunities to discuss many important topics, including provider questions submitted in advance. Use the RESOLVE 2018 survey to submit your questions on regulatory processes, interpretations, funding issues, initiatives or other issues.
