  • Title: Medicaid program; cost sharing demonstrations--HCFA. General notice.
    Journal: Fed Regist; 1982 May 28; 47(104):23572-6. PubMed ID: 10299097.
    Abstract:
    HCFA is soliciting applications from State Medicaid agencies for demonstration projects that will permit States to apply cost sharing to any services for Medicaid eligible individuals. Currently, States are permitted to apply nominal cost sharing to any services for the medically needy, but only to optional services for the categorically needy. Research on cost sharing for the general population indicates it can have an effect on utilization of medical services. By allowing the States greater flexibility to apply a variety of approaches to cost sharing under Medicaid, we expect that States will conduct demonstrations to provide additional, useful information to HCFA, and through HCFA, to all the States, on the effectiveness of several methods of cost sharing. This information should enable HCFA to determine whether alternative methods of cost sharing will further the objectives of the Medicaid program by enabling States to continue to provide medical services. This solicitation also contains information about demonstration requirements and application procedures.
