The lawyers in the K.W. v. Armstrong lawsuit will be arguing in court once again on Tuesday, June 13, 2023, at 1:30 pm MT / 12:30 pm PT.

This will be another court hearing about the SIS-A (the “Supports Intensity Scale - Adult”). The SIS-A is the new assessment that Medicaid will use. The SIS-A will replace the SIB-R and Inventory of Individual Needs.

Idaho Medicaid wants to argue again that adults with developmental disabilities and their families and advocates should not be allowed to see the manual that explains how the SIS-A assessment works. Like before, we will be arguing that adults with developmental disabilities have constitutional rights to understand how the SIS-A works and to access the SIS-A manual.

In late April, Idaho Medicaid asked the judge NOT to make a ruling about this. But now Idaho Medicaid has changed its mind.

Tuesday 6/13/2023 at 1:30 pm MT / 12:30 pm PT, the lawyers for both sides will make their arguments to the judge. You can listen in by phone only:
