Over the last month, New York State has released several updates pertaining to the Children’s Medicaid System Transformation. These include:
- Changes to the timeline for certain components of the transformation, including the carve-in of the foster care population;
- Medicaid/eMedNY enrollment requirements for providers of children’s Home and Community Based Services (HCBS) as well as Children and Family Treatment Support Services (CFTSS); and
- The process for HCBS Level of Care (LOC) eligibility determinations.
A summary of these updates is attached, along with the associated guidance (Timeline, HCBS/CFTSS, HCBS LOC). Questions may be directed to BH.transition@health.ny.gov.
