The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) released a list of companies that have pledged their intent to help states prepare for and implement Medicaid community engagement requirements.
These requirements were enacted under Section 71119 of Public Law 119-21 and require states to establish community engagement rules for certain adults in the Medicaid expansion group, that is adults with incomes up to 138% of the Federal Poverty Level who are not pregnant, not enrolled in Medicare, and not otherwise eligible for Medicaid.
To qualify for and maintain Medicaid coverage, these individuals must engage in activities such as working, attending school, doing community service, or participating in a work program. The companies identified in this announcement have made voluntary commitments, and their inclusion should not be interpreted as an endorsement by CMS.
