HB 5373 Connecticut House · 2024 Regular Session

AN ACT CONCERNING VARIOUS REVISIONS TO HUMAN SERVICES STATUTES.

This bill updates Connecticut's human services laws to improve how the state coordinates care for people with disabilities and manages funding for facilities serving individuals with intellectual disabilities. It establishes an interagency committee to review services and requires the Department of Social Services to maintain an online directory of available disability resources. Additionally, the legislation sets specific rules for calculating operating costs and rate adjustments for intermediate care facilities, including caps on daily rates and guidelines for inflation adjustments. These changes directly impact state agencies responsible for delivering services and the facilities that provide care to residents with disabilities.
