Alexander et al., v. Florida Agency For Health Care Administration

Benjamin Alexander, et al. filed this lawsuit against the Florida Agency for Health Care Administration on December 13, 2018. The plaintiffs allege that the defendants have an obligation under Medicaid law to provide such services, but instead ration services to a restricted number of people, and—as a result—fail to address the care needs of wait-listed older adults and adults with disabilities. The plaintiffs claim that this violates their civil rights, requiring them to choose between receiving needed care and remaining in their homes . . .
