Louisiana Money Follows the Person

“The Money Follows the Person (MFP) Rebalancing Demonstration (the Demonstration) is a Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) grant designed to help states try new ways of delivering Medicaid services. In Louisiana, the MFP Demonstration is called “My Place Louisiana” which helps people move, or “transition”, from qualified institutions into a family home or community-based living setting, such as a house or an apartment. Louisiana is participating with 41 other states, along with the two territories, American Samoa and the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico. All states are working toward the same goal of finding ways to assist people using Medicaid long-term care services to live where they want to live and to receive the support and services needed.”
