Add'l. Info: Waiver Amendment Hearing
Effective January 1, 2017, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) approved and renewed Maryland’s §1115 demonstration waiver, known as HealthChoice, for a 5-year period.
Per the terms of the §1115 HealthChoice demonstration renewal as required by 42 CFR §431.420(c), the Maryland Department of Health (MDH) must conduct a post-award forum within 6 months of implementing the demonstration and annually thereafter. The forum is intended to provide the public with the opportunity to offer meaningful comment on the progress of the demonstration.
Additionally, MDH intends to seek CMS approval for a §1115 demonstration waiver amendment, which will include a new Collaborative Care Pilot. The post-award forum will also provide the public an opportunity to comment on programs proposed for inclusion in the §1115 demonstration waiver amendment.
The 2019 post-award forum and §1115 demonstration waiver amendment hearing will be held May 23, 2019, at 3 p.m., in room L-1 at 201 West Preston Street, Baltimore, Maryland. A second public hearing for the §1115 amendment will be held at 100 Community Place, Crownsville, Maryland, on June 7, 2019, at 10 a.m., in Side A of the First Floor Conference Room. More information will be published in a forthcoming second public notice and can be found on the waiver amendment website below.
