The Pennsylvania Health Law Project has published its September 2019 newsletter.

Included in this month’s edition are articles about:

• changes in federal “public charge” regulations and their implications for immigrants who are currently enrolled in Medicaid or considering applying to participate in the program;
• the right of participants in programs sponsored by the state’s Department of Drug and Alcohol Programs to continue receiving services while they appeal denials of services or reductions of services;
• changes in the application process for state-paid home and community-based services; and
• the continued implementation of the Community HealthChoices program of managed long-term services and supports for low-income seniors.
