Members of the Medicaid and CHIP Payment and Access Commission will meet publicly on Thursday, April 11 and Friday, April 12.
Subjects on the two-day session’s agenda include:
- Medicaid and children’s health insurance program (CHIP) financing
- access to home- and community-based services
- supplemental Medicaid hospital payments such as Medicaid disproportionate share (Medicaid DSH)
- Medicaid unwinding
- recommendations for MACPAC’s June report to Congress
Because they serve so many more Medicaid patients than the typical American hospital, community safety-net hospitals such as those that are part of the Alliance of Safety-Net Hospitals have an especially great stake in the outcome of MACPAC’s deliberations.
