Agency’s Guiding Principles for Identifying Schedule VIII B
Reductions Better manage utilization and find efficiencies. Attempt to minimize impacts on beneficiaries. Target most recent services and fee increases. Maintain integrity of mandatory Medicaid services to avoid Federal
compliance issues. Examine optional Medicaid eligibility groups, consistent with
Stimulus maintenance of eligibility requirements.
6
The federal government contributes 67.64% of every dollar spent on Medicaid services for FY 2009-2010.
For FY 2010-11, the blended FMAP will be 60.71% with an FMAP of 66.44% for July – December 2010 and an FMAP of 54.98% for January-June 2011.
Reductions of General Revenue result in a larger reduction to the providers or of services. Based on an FMAP of 67.64%: If there is a $1 million GR
reduction, there is a total reduction of $3.9 million. Based on an FMAP of 60.71%: If there is a $1 million GR
reduction, there is a total reduction of $2.5 million.
Reality of Reductions
7
Within Medicaid, there are mandatory and optional services and mandatory and optional eligibility groups.
There is less flexibility to make changes to the mandatory services and mandatory eligibility groups. In some cases, level of service can be reduced, but not eliminated.
There are mandatory eligibility and services levels for Children and certain Pregnant Women – those mandatory groups MUST receive ALL medically necessary services.
