Public Consulting Group (PCG) is proud to announce that we have been selected as one of the winners of RippleMatch’s 2024 Campus Forward Awards, specifically for having a Top 50 Small Early Career Program.

We are thrilled to announce that PCG has been named a Best Place to Work for Disability Inclusion for the second year in a row, earning a top score of 90 on the 2024 Disability Equality Index®, the leading disability rating tool designed to help businesses advance inclusion practices. Developed jointly by the American Association of People with Disabilities (AAPD), the nation’s largest disability rights organization, and Disability:IN, a global nonprofit resource for business disability inclusion, the index measures key performance indicators across various categories, including culture and leadership, enterprise-wide access, employment practices, community engagement, and supplier diversity. Based on these factors, the index scores companies on a scale of zero to 100. Companies that score 80 or higher earn the distinction of “Best Places to Work for Disability Inclusion.”

On April 22, 2024, The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) published the Ensuring Access to Medicaid Services (Access Rule) final rule, which incorporates feedback CMS received in response to the initial notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) published in May 2023. While the Access Rule becomes effective on July 9, 2024, states have several years to seek guidance and build the necessary systems and processes to comply with its provisions. Below, we highlight key Access Rule requirements for Medicaid home- and community-based services (HCBS)—including those provided through Medicaid fee-for-service (FFS) and managed care delivery systems—and emphasize notable changes to the rule since the initial version was proposed.
