Florida Senate Bill 82 - Solo Waiver Support Coordination

Has the state though through the impact of this?
- Solo Waiver Support Coordinators that don't want to go to Agencies that will take HALF their salary and provide NOTHING in return.
- Solo Waiver Support Coordinators KNOW what it takes to run their business and in many cases better than the owners of Agencies. Because the Agency is Managing employees. The Solo Waiver Support Coordinator is Managing the Consumers.
- Consumers will be forced to go with someone else. FORCED to be given to an AGENCY and the AGENCY taking away the Consumer's Rights and assigning them to a Waiver Support Coordinator just because they have capacity.
- Small Agencies, (3 or less) forced to hire someone just because....NO RATIONAL REASON to HIRE SOMEONE other than the State thinks the services are better when provided by a Larger company.
- Agencies that have 4 employees forced to HIDE poor performance, due to the threat of losing One Employee means the loss of the whole company.
- Influx of consumers from the lost Solo Waiver Support Coordinators and the lost smaller agencies.  There is already a Critical Shortage of Waiver Support Coordinators and now with some SOLO's not wanting to go to an Agency because MOST Solos probably left an agency, Because they know what the Agencies are about. Agencies, manage employees, Solo WSCs Manage Consumers. EACH have the exact Same Regulations and Requirements and STANDARDS of service they are supposed to provide to Consumers and in Many cases the Agencies are just keeping any person they can around to keep caseloads.
