Paragraph 33 of the Ligas Consent Decree: …Not less than every six (6) months, Defendants shall provide to the Monitor, Plaintiffs, Class Counsel, Intervenors and Intervenors' Counsel and make publicly available, a detailed report containing data and information sufficient to evaluate Defendants' compliance with the Decree and Defendants progress toward achieving compliance…
This is the seventeenth Ligas Data Report, containing data from January 1, 2022, through June 30, 2022. Per the Ligas Consent Decree, the Division of Developmental Disabilities (DDD) will produce reports of data and information regarding implementation of the provisions of the Ligas Consent Decree every six months. The due dates for these reports will typically be February 15th and August 15th of each year.
Class Member List
The DDD maintains a centralized, master Class Member list as described in the Ligas Implementation Plan. Individual records are categorized into three separate areas: individuals living at home in the community, individuals living in an ICF/DD who were admitted after June 15, 2011, and individuals living in an ICF/DD who were there on June 15, 2011 (the date of the Court's approval of the Consent Decree). Written statements documenting a desire to be a part of the Class are obtained for each individual in the latter category. Individuals are added to or removed from the Class list as appropriate.

Notes:
- Prior Fiscal Year numbers may change from previous reports due to updates made in Class Member types and effective dates. The total number of removals and additions will not reconcile to the net increase or decrease in Class Members due to some individuals changing Class status from year to year.
- "Other" in the above chart represents a variety of situations including, but not limited to, individual or family was unresponsive or signed PUNS form was not returned.
ICFs/DD Resident Outreach
Outreach to all individuals residing in ICF/DDs was required under the Decree. This was completed via a contract with The Council on Quality and Leadership (CQL), which conducted Outreach during FY14, FY15 and FY16. CQL's contract ended on January 31, 2016. No other Outreach activities were required or conducted during this reporting period.
Services for Class Members in ICFs/DD
The DDD informed Independent Service Coordination (ISC) agencies of the confirmed Class Members residing in ICFs/DD as of June 15, 2011 and instructed the agencies to complete eligibility determinations and facilitate the choice and selection process. ISC agencies reported progress made in assisting the individuals with their options to the DDD on a monthly basis. All previous transition benchmarks for transitions from ICF/DS were met, with the limited exception of the final benchmark of June 30, 2017, just prior to which 310 OSG wards were added to the Class. This benchmark was not fully achieved, but the DDD, OSG and the ISC Agencies worked to evaluate and transition those individuals in a timely manner.

Services for Class Members from the Waiting List
Ten selections have been completed from the PUNS database (the Division's waiting list) since the approval of the Consent Decree using the criteria specified in the Ligas Implementation Plan and subsequent amendments. Upon selection, Class Members are notified and the ISC agencies complete eligibility determinations and facilitate the choice and provider selection process utilizing Person-Centered Planning. A set of tables is maintained on the Division's website that provides PUNs Selection Summary Information regarding the results of the selections.

Transition Service Plans
An initial version of a standardized format and accompanying instructions was developed with input from the Monitor, Plaintiff's Counsel, ISC agencies, and other advocates throughout the system and implemented during FY13. In 2018, the DDD transitioned to a more person-centered process for Ligas Class Members. The initial phase of the person-centered planning process involves development of a Discovery Tool, which identifies what is important to and for the Class Member. The second step is the creation of the Personal Plan, which focuses on the individual's strengths, preferences, needs and desires. Finally, an Implementation Strategy is created based on the content of the Personal Plan, which identifies the services and supports needed and which the provider will implement to achieve the outcomes identified in the Personal Plan. This new process began January 1, 2018 for Ligas Class Members. All Ligas Class Members began receiving Personal Plans in lieu of the Ligas Transition Plan (either as initial plans, or annual plans) as of January 1, 2018. Note: The person-centered planning process is used, not just for Ligas Class Members, but all waiver participants within the Adults with Developmental Disabilities Waiver.

Voluntary ICFs/DD Closure/Downsizing Agreements
The DDD continues to work with ICF/DD providers that wish to downsize or close their facilities on a voluntary basis. The information below represents ICF/DD Closures or Downsizing agreements for the current reporting period, as well as a cumulative figure since inception (FY13).
In rare instances, some individuals who are part of closure/downsizing agreements are determined to be ineligible for the Adult Developmental Disabilities Medicaid Waiver. In such instances, the individuals are funded in Community-Based Services with only State funding and are not eligible for membership in the Ligas Class.
In comparing this data with that in the section entitled "Services for Class Members in ICFs/DD," note that the data source for whether an individual has moved is different between the two sections. This section uses self-reported information from the ICF/DD providers regarding the status of their closure/downsizing agreements; the section entitled "Services for Class Members in ICFs/DD" uses billing data. Typically, there is a greater lag time in the billing data.

Reasonable Pace
Pursuant to the FY19 Implementation Plan, the DDD agreed to a process by which to ensure individuals on the PUNS waiting list enter services "at a reasonable pace." In addition, the DDD agreed to ensure a minimum of 600 individuals enter services during FY20. This includes individuals selected during FY20 or any prior PUNS selection. For FY20 only, this may include individuals transitioning from one Waiver-funded service to another (i.e. HBCS to CILA). For FY21-FY25, a minimum of 630 individuals will be required to enter services each year, excluding transitions from one Waiver service to another (HBCS to CILA).

Waiver Service Transitions from AHBS to CILA
The following data represents the number of Waiver-funded individuals who transitioned from the Adult Home-Based Support (AHBS) program to the Community-Integrated Living Arrangement (CILA) program for the period specified below. Initially, these service changes were a result of an individual's increased need for such services, and not the result of a selection from the PUNS list. A new process for transitions between Waiver services was developed and was effective April 6, 2021. The DDD released a final Information Bulletin on the new Waiver Service Transition process (and the Crisis process); the new process took the place of the increased need process.

Rates Oversight Committee/Rate Development
The Rates Oversight Committee was established in August 2018 to address concerns regarding the rate structure for CILA and ICF/DD providers. The Committee oversaw seven sub-committees around the following subject areas: ICF/DD, staffing, assistive technology, employment and training, nursing, transportation, and behavioral supports. These subcommittees provided reports and recommendations to the Committee. The Final Report of the Committee was issued on November 13, 2019, at which point a contractor (Guidehouse) was hired to conduct a rate study and make recommendations for a revised rate methodology. The contract was extended through the end of November 2020 to finalize recommendations and produce the final report, including the rate calculators. The Final Rates Report from Guidehouse was released December 8, 2020 and is available on the DHS website.
Expansion of Short-Term Stabilization Homes
The DDD initially utilized four Short-Term Stabilization Homes with a total capacity of 16 beds (4 per home) to provide temporary stabilization services to Class Members experiencing extraordinary behavioral issues preventing their continued stay in their Community-Based Setting. We entered into an agreement with Envision and Individual Advocacy Group, the current providers, to expand the previously contracted four Short-Term Stabilization Homes by two homes each, creating an increased total capacity of 32 beds (4 per home) to provide temporary stabilization services for the increased need among Class Members experiencing extraordinary behavioral issues, jeopardizing their continued stay in their community-Based Setting.
Each agency opened one of their two new homes in 2021. Envision opened its third home for occupancy, referred to as Miami, located in Forest Park, IL on April 12th, 2021. Individual Advocacy Group opened its third home, The Portuguese Hill, located in Jacksonville, IL on May 27th, 2021. These two additional homes provide short-term stabilization capacity for an additional 8 people. Each agency is projected to open their fourth homes in FY23, adding capacity for eight more people, reaching the total of 32.
Implementation Plan Updates and Amendments
The original Implementation Plan was completed and filed with the Court with input from the Monitor, Plaintiffs, and Intervenors. Subsequent annual updates are completed each year. The original Implementation Plan and the subsequent updates are posted on the DHS website.
Coronavirus (COVID-19)
In March of 2020, the Governor of Illinois issued a Stay at Home Order as a result of the Coronavirus (COVID-19). The DDD worked with Healthcare and Family Services (HFS) to file an Appendix K amendment to the Waiver to support policy and rate changes to stabilize the system. Subsequently, the Department of Human Services temporarily suspended all site-based Community Day Services (CDS) attendance in effort to prevent the spread of the virus. CDS reopened fully on September 1, 2020, under guidance from the DDD, including reduced capacity and infection control measures, consistent with guidance from both the Centers for Disease Control (CDS) and the Illinois Department of Public Health (IDPH). Effective October 1, 2020, the DDD implemented a new waiver service, Virtual Day Services (VDS), to allow individuals to receive day services virtually during the pandemic.
Data for Agency-Reported COVID-19 Positive Cases in DDD Community-Integrated Living Arrangements (CILAs) is available on the Department's website. IDPH tracks statistics for Illinois at large as well as for long-term care facilities; this COVID-19 Data is available on the IDPH website.
