Department of Economic Security - Division of Developmental Disabilities

The Division developed new payment rates for service providers appropriately, but is still developing rates for therapy services. The greatest unmet service needs for individuals with disabilities are for speech, physical, and occupational therapy. In addition, the Division should adopt more systematic methods of identifying who should be billed for services. The report also provides information on the Division’s new fiscal intermediaries program and on the Arizona Training Program at Coolidge.
