Enhancing consumer independence through delegation.
Many forces are influencing the development of delegation options, and states are approaching the issue differently. In 1997 Oregon, Texas, New York, and Washington participated in a national symposium on delegation convened by The National Institute of Consumer-Directed Long-Term Services. These states do not necessarily represent four different approaches; however, each illustrates some of the issues involved and the ways that competing forces continue to work together to improve the policies and regulations governing delegation.
