Get Involved

The Ohio Home and Community Based Services Coalition is open to any individual or group that is invested in our mission and goals:

Goals:

• Maintain and expand home and community-based services and supports in the next biennium budget across all populations and systems
• Leverage current state and federal funding to ensure access to quality providers in the home and community and prevent a reduction in services
• Expand transitions out of long-term care facilities and into the community through programs like HOME Choice
• Identify those most at-risk of institutionalization and provide care coordination to prevent placement in a long-term care facility by increasing support to transition coordinators
• Increase reimbursement rates for providers across all systems ensuring individuals are able to receive care in their homes and community
• Ensure providers, specifically home health and personal care aides, to PPE without putting a financial burden on those providers
• Ensure additional funding to providers to offset additional costs incurred during this pandemic
• Increase access to providers in the community ensuring the expansion of system capacity
• Ensure individuals have access to safe, affordable, and accessible housing including home modification
