Agency Medicaid Update: DHS
Oregon’s State Plan Jesse Anderson, State Plan Manager, OHA
Medicaid State Plan • Every state that participates in a Medicaid or a CHIP program must file a document called the State Plan. – It is essentially our contract with the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) that allows us to draw down federal match for the programs. • All State Medicaid agency’s must comply with some basic requirements: – Serve certain mandatory populations. – Provide certain mandatory services. – Provide services that are “sufficient in amount, duration, and scope and provided statewide.
What initiates a State Plan Amendment (SPA) • There are various reasons an amendment would be filed. These include: – A change in federal law – Change in state law – Legislative discussions, budget notes, budget reductions – Reimbursement changes
SPA timelines • Once a state plan amendment is submitted, CMS has 90 days to review and approve or deny the SPA. • If during the initial 90 day period, CMS needs more time to review, they will issue a Request for Additional Information (RAI). – This will start a new 90 day period in which the state can respond to the questions. – Once the state has responded, CMS begins a new 90 days in which to review and approve or deny the SPA.
SPA notice requirements • Tribal consultation- 30 days prior to submission of a state plan. – CMS allows an expedited review when necessary. • Public notice- required if changes to reimbursement or reimbursement methodologies, a public notice is required prior to the SPA’s effective date. – Public notice must describe the proposed change; estimate the increase or decrease in expenditures; give contact person, address for written comments to be received. – Comments received during the comment period are reviewed and acted upon if warranted.
Difference between Waiver and State Plan • The State Plan adheres strictly to the federal Medicaid requirements as outlined in the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR). • Waivers are time limited, the state plan is not. • Waivers specify ways that the state Medicaid program will operate differently from what is outlined in the CFR. – OHP operates under the 1115 Demonstration Waiver, however there are several other types of waivers (1915(b)(4), 1915(c),(i),(j)).
