Abstract: The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) requests clearance for its primary contractor, L&M Policy Research (L&M) and partners, Thomson Reuters, and the National Association of State Directors of Developmental Disabilities Services (NASDDDS) to address the growing need among Federal and State policymakers and stakeholders for accurate and comprehensive information regarding available services and supports for people with ASD. The approach to gather this information in all 50 states and the District of Columbia will be to use a semi-structured interview guide that focuses on current services for people with ASD, policies for people with ASD and funding and utilization of public supports for people with ASD.
