Michiganders are suffering catastrophic injuries in car crashes each day, and with shortcomings in the 2019 auto no-fault law, they're left suffering instead of healing.

The recent Michigan Court of Appeals case is a step forward in ensuring that those who are injured receive the high-quality, personalized care they deserve.

Recent court rulings could force insurance companies to pay more for home care for the most severely injured crash victims in Michigan.

We are proud to stand with leaders like Senator Stabenow who are calling on Congress to protect home health benefits and focus on fighting fraud instead of cutting care. This is about doing what’s right: holding bad actors accountable while ensuring patients can continue receiving the support they need at home.

At MHHA, we know firsthand how critical these services are for Michigan families. We’ll continue advocating to keep care accessible, reliable, and delivered with dignity.

I think it’s safe to say that access to quality skilled home health care when you need it is a priority for every American.

We had sessions on mandatory reporting requirements, financial exploitation, dementia in individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities, and prosecutorial perspectives.

We’re grateful to our presenting sponsor, PFCU Credit Union, and to First Day Homecare, and the Alzheimer's Association® Michigan chapter for their support.

Thank you to everyone who joined us in advancing safety and dignity for Michigan’s most vulnerable adults.
