At-home nursing and personal care assistant services are not reimbursed through Medicaid at a rate that home care agencies can reliably sustain. This means employee recruitment and retention fall behind, and the quality and continuity of patient care suffers.

-PDN (Private Duty Nursing) shortages delay hospital discharges 60–90+ days
-Children miss school without needed medical support
-Families lose income, sleep, and stability
-Patients are pushed into institutions—unnecessarily
