Advocates say the state’s new long-term care plan for intellectually and developmentally disabled residents will jeopardize their well-being. Under the plan, called KanCare, three private insurance companies will dictate long-term coverage for the developmentally disabled beginning Jan. 1, 2014.” (Full story here.)
