What Options for Ensuring Access and Coverage Do State Medicaid/CHIP Programs Have In a Public Health Emergency? Section 1915(c) Home- and Community-Based Service Waiver Appendix K
The goal of this fact sheet is to provide Title V programs and allies with a summary of guidance in clear language in order to build understanding of key financing and coverage provisions during the COVID-19 emergency, support care coordination, benefits and coverage counseling, and aid in reducing the risk of family financial hardship. In disaster or other emergency situations, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid (CMS) can offer states a number of flexible options that can help them meet the emergency needs of Medicaid and CHIP (Children’s Health Insurance Program) beneficiaries.
