On May 14, 2025, Susan Wallace testified on the state operating budget before the Ohio Senate Health Committee. Susan’s testimony focused on reviewing HCBS rates moving forward to inform future adjustments; adding direct care professions to the state’s Individual Micro-credential Assistance Program (IMAP); restoration of the Ohio Housing Trust Fund; and the expansion of the PACE program and changes to its rate structure.
The hearing was the last opportunity ahead of Friday’s amendment deadline to elevate our proposed changes to the House Sub Bill.
