CHA has developed a summary on the Medicaid access and managed care proposed rules, which focus on access, payment rate transparency, financing and quality within both FFS and managed care delivery systems.

Key themes include a focus on school-based services, plans to address workforce shortages and investments in Medicaid support for behavioral health services.

The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) proposed rule aims to streamline prior authorization processes and modify related electronic data exchange requirements for plans and providers.
