The Honorable, The Legislature:
The attached report is submitted to the Legislature pursuant to s.
46.27(11g) and s.
46.277(5m) of the state statutes. The state statutes require the Department of Health and Family Services to submit an annual report for the Community Options Program (COP) and the Home and Community-Based Waivers (COP-W/CIP II). The attached report describes the persons served, program expenditures, and services delivered through the COP, COP-Waiver and CIP II programs in calendar year 2001.
The Community Options Program provides services to people who are elderly or who have a physical, developmental or mental disability, and is closely coordinated with all of Wisconsin's Medicaid Home and Community-Based Waivers. With the Department's oversight, county agencies are able to ensure that a comprehensive and individualized care plan is provided, while maintaining program flexibility and integrity, and maximizing federal matching funds.
Sincerely,
Helene Nelson
Secretary
Referred to committee on Health, Children, Families, Aging and Long Term Care.
