Arkansas’ own rate study shows that nonprofit providers supporting people with intellectual and developmental disabilities are 23% underfunded, while the managed care companies (PASSEs) report average yearly profits of $43 million and return an average of $107 million to the state each year. The funding is there, but the people these services are meant to support continue to bear the cost of this funding gap.
Contact your state representatives and senators today and urge them to implement the rate increase mandated by AR Act 1023 without delay. We Are Not 23% Less!
