The Executive Office of Health and Human Services (EOHHS) was created by Governor Donald Carcieri to facilitate cooperation and coordination among the four state departments that administer Rhode Island's health and social service programs - the Department of Children, Youth and Families (DCYF), the Department of Elderly Affairs (DEA), the Department of Human Services (DHS), and the Department of Mental Health, Retardation and Hospitals (MHRH).
These departments collectively impact the lives of virtually all Rhode Islanders, providing direct services and benefits to over 300,000 citizens while working to protect the overall health, safety and independence of all Rhode Islanders.
The Executive Office of Health and Human Services, in collaboration with the directors of the Health and Human Services agencies, has established a taskforce to provide input on the planning and implementation of reforms to the RI Medicaid Program.
For meeting minutes and information distributed at taskforce meetings see Global Waiver Taskforce.
The RI Medicaid Medical Care Advisory Committee will hold its next meeting on Wednesday, December 9, 2009 at 7:00 am. The location of the meeting is at DHS, Louis Pasteur Building, 600 New London Avenue, Cranston, RI.
Members of the public who would like to attend should RSVP since space is limited and the doors do not open at the Louis Pasteur Building until 8:15 am. DHS will assist attendees by meeting them at the front door. To RSVP, please email mware@dhs.ri.gov or call 462-3575.
