Quadco Rehabilitation Center is working on a plan that will comply with new Medicaid conflict of interest rules affecting county boards of developmental disabilities across the state and the country. At their regular Administrative and Non-Profit Board meeting on Tuesday, board members learned that the center is planning to privatize their services, just as many county boards are doing, to be in compliance with the rules. The new rules essentially say that an entity, such as a county board, that provides case management services to the people they serve cannot also provide other services, since that could create a conflict of interest. Some people apparently feel that Quadco, which was created before the county board system was formed in the state, could be confused as a similar entity. With that in mind, the center is now working with an administrative law firm in Columbus who has been working with over 20 other county boards in the state who are developing similar plans to also develop one for Quadco that should satisfy any concerns of complying with the new rules. The next meeting of the board will be on August 25 at noon in the Stryker conference room.
