The back log is due to the turnover when McKee took office and the low wages at DHS.

The best tip I can give LTSS applicants is to make sure you have someone competent assisting with the application process as the initial application is lengthy.

I believe there are attorneys wholly qualified to assist. They get it right the first time and succeed 99% on first time. Before you object based on cost, take a pulse on the wait times and rejections on try one in RI. Attorney only takes a modest % of your Medicaid reward. Worth it.
