September 17, 2020

The Center for Medicare Advocacy submitted joint comments with the Florida Health Justice Project (FHJP) to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) regarding Florida’s application to the CMS seeking a two-year extension of the 1115 Managed Medical Assistance (MMA) Waiver. Our comments focused on the repeal of Retroactive Medicaid Eligibility (RME) and the continuation of the Low Income Pool (LIP).

The joint comments are available in full here: https://medicareadvocacy.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/FL1115-Comments-PDF-Final.pdf
