ACAP Comment Letter on Medicaid and CHIP Access, Finance and Quality

On June 30, ACAP submitted a letter to CMS Administrator Brooks-LaSure to show support, and share concerns for proposed regulation:  “Medicaid Program; Medicaid and Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP) Managed Care Access, Finance, and Quality”

Key themes from the comment letter include:

  • support of CMS’s objectives of increasing transparency and accountability,
    standardizing data and monitoring, and creating opportunities to promote active beneficiary
    engagement in Medicaid programs
  • a request that CMS examine how and the degree to which this proposed rule adds
    significant administrative and reporting requirements on states, plans, and providers

 

The letter is linked in its entirety in the sidebar on the right.
