The North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services (the Department) is releasing updated information about the assumptions underlying the care management component of capitation payments to NC Medicaid Managed Care Prepaid Health Plan (PHPs) Standard Plans. The PHP Standard Plan capitation rates developed by the Department reflect its belief that investment in robust community-based care management will drive improvements in care outcomes and achieve greater value from the state’s Medicaid dollar.
With state budget negotiations ongoing, NCDHHS has worked with CMS to negotiate a compromise to begin submitting documents needed for federal approval to launch Medicaid expansion on October 1, 2023.
Includes provider recredentialing/reverification, billing requirement modifications, Tailored Plan implementation, upcoming key milestones, playbook updates and more.
