Iowa Home and Community Based Services Intellectual Disabilities (ID) Waiver

“The goal of the Iowa HCBS Intellectual Disability (ID) waiver is to provide community alternatives to institutional services. Through need-based funding of individualized supports, eligible participants may maintain their position within their homes and communities rather than default placement within an institutional setting.  The Iowa Department of Human Services (DHS) Iowa Medicaid Enterprise (IME) is the single state agency responsible for the oversight of Medicaid.”
