State Senator John Liu has raised alarms over a possible disruption in at-home care for thousands of Medicaid patients due to the April 1 deadline for transitioning to Public Partnerships, LLC. This company now oversees payroll for the Consumer Directed Personal Assistance Program, which allows patients to hire caregivers of their choice. Liu argues that rushed implementation and poor outreach have left families, especially from immigrant communities, unprepared, risking their access to necessary healthcare services. He calls for an extension of the deadline to ensure better communication and support for affected patients.
