The AIDS Foundation of Chicago (AFC) submitted comments January 22, 2014, in response to the state’s Draft 1115 Waiver Application. In the comments, AFC urges the state to prioritize case management for people with HIV, leverage the Medicaid Health Home state plan option to improve care for people with HIV, and institute financial incentives for HMOs to improve care provided to people with HIV. AFC also remarks on home and community based care waiver consolidation and supportive housing.
