This article examines the distribution of home and community-based services (HCBS) under Florida's Medicaid waiver programme. Controlling for personal and community characteristics, it was found that gender and race significantly affect the access of the disabled adult population to HCBS services, with women and non-whites significantly more likely to be receiving HCBS services.
