It is called the Community Settings Rule. Providers of Medicaid waivers must follow the new rule. The rule says that Medicaid waiver services must be given in a way that helps you to be a real part of the community. Some people get Medicaid waiver services in a home that belongs to a provider. You may be one of these people. The new rule tells providers what they must do to be sure that the place that you live looks and feels like your home.
