Abstract
American samoa money follows the person american samoa does not have a home community based service (hcbs) in place. The money follows the person (MFP) will provide resources for qualified individuals where they live and receive care in our community. A comprehensive and cohesive roadmap created as a whole community with agencies and family members will create a person-centered approach to choices and control the goal is to develop a range of culturally appropriate home and community based services (hcbs) that are sustainable in american samoa. The MFP objectives are to: increase the use of hcbs, rather than institutionalize long term support services (ltss), in the medicaid program; eliminate barriers or mechanisms, whether in state law, the state medicaid plan, the state budget, or otherwise, that prevent or restrict the flexible use of medicaid funds to enable medicaid-eligible individuals to receive support for appropriate and necessary ltss in the settings of their choice; increase the ability of as medicaid programs to assure continued provision of hcbs to eligible individuals who choose to transition from an institution to a community setting; and ensure that procedures are in place to provide quality assurance for eligible individuals receiving medicaid hcbs and to provide for continuous quality improvement in such services. The american samoa MFP project will work collaboratively with the developmental disabilities planning council, office of protection & advocacy for the disable, the department of commerce, the as medicaid office and collaborative partners to support its design, implementation, and transitioning. The american samoa medicaid state agency is submitting as the lead organization for money follows the person (MFP) demonstration expansion proposal to the center for medicare & medicaid services (CMS). The agency to administer the cooperative agreement under the american samoa medicaid state agency is the american samoa community college, specifically the university center for excellence in developmental disabilities (ucedd).
