New Work and Community Engagement Requirements: Overview of Federal Activity and State Considerations

On January 11, CMS released a letter providing guidance for states seeking 1115 waivers that condition Medicaid eligibility on work and community engagement, followed by approval of Kentucky’s 1115 waivers that include these requirements. Both the new guidance and recent waiver approval represents a significant departure from past Administrations’ positions. In this webinar, the State Health and Value Strategies program, together with technical assistance experts from Manatt Health, review the new guidance, including key design parameters, budget neutrality requirements, and monitoring and evaluation criteria.
