House Human Services Committee

The Pennsylvania House Human Services Committee is scheduled to vote on HB1939 on Tuesday, October 29, 2025.

HB1939, along with its companion bill in the Senate (SB617), would establish annual rate increases for Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities (IDD) services based on the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U). This bi-partisan legislation, supported in both chambers, would help ensure that provider reimbursement rates keep pace with inflation, supporting workforce stability and maintaining high-quality services across the system.

RCPA supports HB1939 and encourages members to contact the House Human Services Committee to express support and request a “Yes” vote on the bill.

Please direct any questions to Tim Sohosky.

Tomorrow, February 5, the House Human Services Committee will hold a second informational meeting on the treatment and support for Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBI). The meeting will be held at 9:00 am in Room G-50 in the Irvis Office Building of the Capitol.

The hearing will include testimony to be provided by the PA Department of Health, NeuroRestorative, Woods Services, Penn State Health, and Penn State College of Medicine. Following the testimony from the panelists, they will receive questions from the members of the Committees.

The meeting will be livestreamed, which can be accessed from the Human Services website here.
