In Pennsylvania, individuals with intellectual disabilities have the right to receive the services and supports they need from any qualified provider. Freedom of choice is an important component of the Medicaid program which funds most of the mental retardation services and supports in Pennsylvania.
There are a number of things to consider as you are choosing a provider. What kind of services or supports do you need and where would you like to receive them? Would you like to learn more about a specific provider that someone has told you about?
This PAR Services Network can help you find a provider. You can search by geographical location, refine your search based on the services you are looking for, and whether or not the service is for children or adults.
