Amend CSHB 1 in Article II, appropriation for the Department of Aging and Disability Services, by inserting the following appropriately-numbered rider and renumbering any subsequent riders accordingly:
"It is the intent of the legislature that the Department of Aging and Disability Services develop a contingency plan for consumers that are displaced as a result of a significant number of providers exiting the Home and Community-based Services Program, the Intermediate Care Facilities-MR, and the Nursing Facilities. This contingency plan shall define a significant number of providers and include short term and long term planning criteria that ensures the health and safety of the individual and promotes their independence. The plan is due upon the implementation of rate reductions for each impacted program."
