Summary

The resolve would change the MaineCare Benefits Manual so a provider can hold a vacant bed for up to 60 days after a resident is hospitalized, instead of 30 days. It also requires a 120‑day search for a new housemate before the remaining resident can be given an eviction notice, with possible extensions under specific conditions. The measure targets adults receiving home‑ and community‑based services for intellectual disabilities or autism and aims to reduce abrupt displacements.
