RE: S-94 – Eligibility Process State Plan Amendment (SPA), KS-14-0003-MM2
Dear Dr. Mosier:
This letter is being sent as a companion to Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) approval of state plan amendment (SPA) transmittal KS-14-0003-MM2. Our review of this submission included a review of the online alternative single streamlined application developed by the state.
Until October 31, 2015, the state is using an interim alternative single streamlined online application. This interim application needs to be revised to reflect the following changes.
MAGI-based Online Application Necessary Changes
Completion Date
The state agrees to add logic to ask questions about access to employer sponsored coverage only for applicants who appear ineligible for Medicaid and CHIP.
October 31, 2015
Pensions and retirement income is generally taxable and should be included as a MAGI income type rather than a non-MAGI income type.
June 30, 2015

Dear Dr. Mosier:
The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) has completed its review of Kansas State Plan Amendment (SPA) Transmittal Number 14-0005-MM4. This SPA allows the A1-A3 state plan pages to supersede the current Attorney General certification, organizational chart, description of the functions of the single state agency, the description of the professional medical and support staff, and pages 2-8 of the organization of the state agency. This amendment clarified the authority and responsibilities of the Single State Agency and its relationship to other federal and state agencies, the fair hearings process, and the process for determining eligibility.
This SPA was approved June 6, 2014, with an effective date of January 1, 2014. Enclosed is a copy of the CMS 179 form, as well as, the approved pages A-1 through A- 3 and supporting document pages for incorporation into the state plan.
We appreciate the cooperation and effort provided by your staff throughout this process. If you have any questions regarding this state plan amendment, please contact Karen Hatcher or myself at (816) 426-5925.
Sincerely,

The citizenship and immigration status requirements are set forth at 1902(a)(46)(B) and 1903(v)(2),(3), and (4) of the Act and in 42 CFR § 435.4, 435.406, and 435.956.

We do not require any further action on the part of the state in relation to the approval of this state plan amendment. However, as outlined in the state’s responses to the RAI received on February 17, 2015, the state has committed to working with CMS on the implementation of the Operational Advanced Planning Document (OAPD) for the Kansas Eligibility and Enrollment System (KEES) related to the use of the Federal Data Services Hub to verify citizenship and satisfactory immigration status.

KANSAS MEDICAID STATE PLAN KS 19-0010__ Approval Date Effective Date07/01/19 Supersedes TN #13-011 Supplement 3 to Attachment 3.1-A Page 6 II. Rates and Payments A. The State assures CMS that the capitated rates will be equal to or less than the cost to the agency of providing those same fee-for-service State plan approved services on a fee-for-service basis, to an equivalent non-enrolled population group based upon the following methodology. Please attach a description of the negotiated rate setting methodology and how the State will ensure that rates are less than the cost in fee-for- service. 1.__ Rates are set at a percent of fee-for-service costs 2.___ Experience-based (contractors/State’ s cost experience or encounter date( please describe) 3.___ Adjusted Community Rate (please describe) 4._ X Other (please describe) Rates are set at a percent of the Amount that Would Otherwise be Paid. The development is based on KanCare encounter data since in the absence of joining the PACE program these members would be enrolled in managed care. B. The State Medicaid Agency assures that the rates were set in a reasonable and predictable manner. Please list the name, organizational affiliation of any actuary used, and attestation/description for the initial capitation rates. Actuarial Firm: The state contracts with an actuarial firm to develop the AWOP. The PACE rates for Medicaid are established based upon services rendered to the SSI and Medically Needy populations residing in the service area. The Amount that Would Otherwise be Paid (AWOP) include the aged, blind, and disabled populations that are age 55 and older, meet the state’s criteria for nursing home level of care, live in an area that offers PACE, and have the ability to live safely in the community. The most recent encounter claims data is used for all services including targeted case management, with the exception of Medicare Part A and Part B premiums (Medicare buy-in). Data for persons in an ICF/IDD, HCBS/IDD, NF-MH, or state hospital setting are excluded. Only data for persons in a Nursing Facility (NF) or in the Physically Disabled (PD) or Frail Elderly (FE) waivers are included. The costs in the base period are inflated to the present for rate setting purposes and adjusted for any applicable program changes. Inflation is based on state historical costs. Beneficiary eligibility data for the same time period as the encounter claims data and with the same exclusions as above is used. This data was analyzed in a manner similar to that used for capitated managed care rate setting. AWOPs on a per member per month basis are computed by several dimensions: Dual vs. Non-Dual, age groups 55-74 vs. 75+, and the four regions Johnson County Region (JO), Northeast Region (NE), Southeast Region SE), and Sedgwick County (SG).

KANSAS MEDICAID STATE PLAN KS 19-0010__ Approval Date Effective Date07/01/19 Supersedes TN #13-011 Supplement 3 to Attachment 3.1-A Page 7 Actual encounter data expenditures by Medicaid are used to calculate the AWOP with the exceptions noted below. The claims completion factor was completed for Incurred But Not Reported (IBNR) and Underreporting. The PACE provider shall be responsible for collection of and reporting of third party liability. No adjustment is necessary to payments because claims do not reflect any receipts of third party liability by Medicaid. Adjustments to expenditures are made equal to the amount of average MCO pharmacy rebates received. The percentage is based upon the aggregate receipt of pharmacy rebates versus aggregate pharmacy payments as rebates cannot readily be identified to a particular population or county of residence. In the absence of being in the PACE program, members would be in the KanCare managed care program which does not have any co-payment requirements for members. Medicare Part D medication drugs were deducted from the AWOP, along with any other Medicare payments. In addition, an administrative cost consistent with existing administrative levels in KanCare, along with applicable taxes and fees, was included in the AWOP development. Disproportionate share payments are not included in any claims data as they cannot be identified to a particular beneficiary, nor will they be the responsibility of the PACE provider. For those individuals who have client participation for cost of care requirements, the actual rate paid will be the applicable rate less the client participation for that particular person. In order to set AWOPs for a future time period, trend factors will be completed at least every 3 years. Separate trends for the following are computed using the same methodology that is used for the Medicaid budget process: SSI Aged regular medical expenditures (all expenditures except for long term care and HCBS related), SSI Blind and Disabled regular medical expenditures, Medically Needy Aged regular medical expenditures, Medically Needy Blind and Disabled regular medical expenditures, HCBS/FE expenditures, HCBS/PD expenditures, and Nursing facility expenditures. The rates are made prospectively to the PACE organization and are less than what would have been paid under the State Plan if the participants were not enrolled in PACE.

KANSAS MEDICAID STATE PLAN KS 19-0010__ Approval Date Effective Date07/01/19 Supersedes TN #13-011 Supplement 3 to Attachment 3.1-A Page 8 The AWOP will be discounted by a budget savings factor determined by the state to arrive at the final rates paid. The budget savings factor will be based upon: negotiations with the provider, efficient operation of the PACE site, savings to be accrued to the State Agency, and the experience of the PACE site. The State will document its rationale for choosing the specific budget percentage factor in its submittal to the CMS RO with the annual rates. C. The State will submit all capitated rates to the CMS Regional Office for prior approval. III. Enrollment and Disenrollment The state assures that there is a process in place to provide for dissemination of enrollment and disenrollment data between the State and the State Administrating Agency. The state assures that it has developed and will implement procedures for the enrollment and disenrollment of a participants in the State’ s management information system, including procedures for any adjustment to account for the difference between the estimated number of participants on which the prospective month payment was based and the actual number of participants in that month.

KANSAS MEDICAID STATE PLAN Attachment 4.19-A Page 27 Methods and Standards for Establ¡shing Payment Rates - lnpat¡ent Hospital Care B, Limitation on DSH Payments L¡mitation on Total DSH Funds Allocated The allocation of DSH funds is structured so as not to exceed the allotment determined by Centers for Med¡care & Med¡caid Serv¡ces (ClvlS) in accordance with section 1923(f)(3) of the social Security Act. As the DSH payment methodology dèscribed in subsequent sections allocates only available DSH funding, ¡n no case shall allocated DSH funds exceed the Kansas federâl allotment. All Hosp¡tals are limited to no more than the¡r Uncompensated Care Costs (UCC). UCC is the uncompensâted cost of care to the Kansas portion of uninsured and the uncompensated cost of care to Medicaid participânts. The data to be used ¡n the calculating of each hospital's UCC will be obta¡ned from several sources including a hospital DSH survey, Medicaid pâid cla¡ms data, and the hospital's Medicare cost report. The period of the data to be utilized will co¡nc¡de with the period of the Medicare cost report, filed with lrledicare, for each hospital that is available no later thân four months prior to the start of the state fiscal year (SFY) for wh¡ch payments are being made. This limitation is computed by Medicaid below. UCC Uninsured lnpâtients - For purposes of the DSH calculat¡on the un¡nsured âre def¡ned as those individuals who lack th¡rd party coverage for el¡g¡ble services received. Hospitals are [equired to submit on their annual DSH survey the amount of uninsured days, charges, and payments attr¡butable to inpatient hospital services. These uninsured days and charges will be grouped by cost center and multiplied by the hospital's inpatient per diems and cost-to-charge ratios, as calculated from the¡r Medicare ôost report, to arr¡ve at total ¡npat¡ent uninsured costs The total inpatient pâyments received from the uninsured will be subtracted from the costs to arrlve at thê uncompensated uninsured inpâtient costs. The reported uninsured charges and payments should exclude non-hospital seru¡cos such as: Skilled Nursing Facilities (SNF), Nurs¡ng Facil¡ty (NF), Rural Health clinics (RHC), Federally Qual¡fied Health Centers (FQHC), âs wêll as physiciân chârges. Ucc Uninsured outpatients * For purposes of the DSH calculation the un¡nsured are defined as those individuals who lack third party coverage for eligible services received. Hospitals are required to submit on their annual DSH suruey the amount of uninsured chargês and payments attributable to outpatient hospital services. These uninsured charges will be grouped by cost center and mult¡pl¡ed by the hospital's outpat¡ent (ancillary) cost to charge ratios, as calculated from the¡r Medicare cost Íeport, to arr¡ve at total outpat¡ent un¡nsured costs. The total outpat¡ent payments received from the uninsured will be subtracted from the costs to arrive at the uncomponsated uninsured outpatient costs. The reported uninsured charges and payments should exclude non-hospital services such ast Skilled Nursing Facilities (SNF), Nursing Facility (NF), Rural Hêalth Clin¡cs (RHC), Federally Qualified Health centers (FQHC), as well as physician charges.

Total redistlibution payments may not exceed total DSH recoupment to date. To redistribute the frrnds, the State will do the following: a. Hospitals closed or bankrupt as of thc datc of the redistribution calculation may be excluded flonr the funds available for redistribution and will be excluded from any available lcdistribution, b. Redistribute the state IMD DSH recoupment to all other eligible state IMD hospitals that are shown to have been paid less than their hospital-specific DSH limits in the DSH audit. The redistribution will ocour propolionally based on each hospital's total available DSH linrit in the DSH aûdit (shortfall) to tho total shortfall for all state IMD hospitals, not to exceed each hospital-specific DSH lirrit. ADy overyayrrent which cannot be redistributed within the statelMD hosp¡tals will be redistributed to non-IMD state hospitals using the san'ìe rnethodology, \ c.

KANSAS MEDICAID STATE PLAN Attachment 4.19-A Page 25d Methods and Standards for Establishing Payment Rates – Inpatient Hospital Care 4.0000 Reimbursement for Inpatient Services in State Operated Psychiatric Hospitals, State Institutional Alternatives (SIA) and Large Public Kansas Teaching Hospitals Reimbursement for inpatient services in state operated psychiatric hospitals shall be based upon the lesser of reasonable costs or customary charges for covered services rendered to eligible individuals. These costs shall include Medicare allowable costs, including but not limited to malpractice, capital, physician services, and education as allowed under federal law. Reimbursement for inpatient services in State Institutional Alternatives (SIA) shall be based upon the lesser of reasonable costs or customary charges for covered services rendered to eligible individuals. These costs shall include Medicare allowable costs, including but not limited to malpractice, capital, physician services, and education as allowed under federal law. Reimbursement for inpatient services in large public Kansas teaching hospitals is determined upon the Standard DRG payment plus an additional amount for outlier claims. Outlier payment for large public Kansas teaching hospitals are calculated consistent with the method described at 2.5100 and 2.5300. Effective May 17, 2019, and updated annually on a calendar year basis beginning January 1, 2020, the group payment rate for large public Kansas teaching hospitals calculated pursuant to sections 2.4500- 2.4520 will be calculated in the following manner: 1. FFS DRG Pricing: a. The most recent two historical years of FFS utilization will be priced at the current effective DRG schedule to align with the year that the Academic Base Rate will be effective. b. This uses the KU Peer Group Rate prior to the adjustment for the Academic Base Rate and includes both the projected base DRG payment and outlier payments. 2. Encounter DRG Pricing: a. The most recent two historical years of encounter utilization at the current effective DRG schedule to align with the year that the Academic base rate will be effective. b. This uses the KU Peer Group Rate prior to the adjustment for the Academic Base Rate and includes both the projected base DRG payment and outlier payments. 3. Encounter percent of billed pricing: a. The most recent historical years of Encounter utilization is priced at the effective percent of billed schedule for the following year that the Academic Base Rate will be effective. b. The billed charges are trended from the historical period to the current calendar year effective period based on KU’s historic charge master increases. 4. Upper Payment Limit (UPL): a. KU provided historic UPL information for the prior two historical years. b. Fiscal year was used as a benchmark due to KU UPL reporting period. 5. Academic Base Rate Adjustment: a. The KU Peer Group rate will be increased through an iterative process in such a manner the following conditions are met: i. The encounter DRG pricing with the updated KU Peer Group will be less than the Encounter percent of billed pricing; and ii. The FFS DRG Pricing with the updated KU Peer Group will be less than the historic UPL levels. b. Once the conditions are met, the updated KU Peer Group is finalized as the KU Academic Base Rate.

DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH & HUMAN SERVICES Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services 7500 Security Boulevard, Mail Stop S2-26-12 Baltimore, Maryland 21244-1850 May , 2020 Adam Proffitt State Medicaid Director Division of Health Care Finance Kansas Department of Health and Environment Landon State Office Building 900 SW Jackson Street, Suite 900 N Topeka, KS 66612-1220 Re: Kansas State Plan Amendment (SPA) 20-0012 Dear Mr. Proffitt: We have reviewed the proposed amendment to add section 7.4 Medicaid Disaster Relief for the COVID-19 National Emergency to your Medicaid state plan, as submitted under transmittal number (TN) 20-0012. This amendment proposes to implement temporary policies, which are different from those policies and procedures otherwise applied under your Medicaid state plan, during the period of the Presidential and Secretarial emergency declarations related to the COVID-19 outbreak (or any renewals thereof). On March 13, 2020, the President of the United States issued a proclamation that the COVID-19 outbreak in the United States constitutes a national emergency by the authorities vested in him by the Constitution and the laws of the United States, including sections 201 and 301 of the National Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 1601 et seq.), and consistent with section 1135 of the Social Security Act (Act). On March 13, 2020, pursuant to section 1135(b) of the Act, the Secretary of the United States Department of Health and Human Services invoked his authority to waive or modify certain requirements of titles XVIII, XIX, and XXI of the Act as a result of the consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic, to the extent necessary, as determined by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), to ensure that sufficient health care items and services are available to meet the needs of individuals enrolled in the respective programs and to ensure that health care providers that furnish such items and services in good faith, but are unable to comply with one or more of such requirements as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, may be reimbursed for such items and services and
(spa)(ks-20-0012)(approval-document)(page-3)Page 3#
exempted from sanctions for such noncompliance, absent any determination of fraud or abuse. This authority took effect as of 6PM Eastern Standard Time on March 15, 2020, with a retroactive effective date of March 1, 2020. The emergency period will terminate, and this state plan provision will no longer be in effect, upon termination of the public health emergency, including any extensions. Pursuant to section 1135(b)(5) of the Act, for the period of the public health emergency, CMS is modifying the requirement at 42 C.F.R. 430.20 that the state submit SPAs related to the COVID-19 public health emergency by the final day of the quarter, to obtain a SPA effective date during the quarter, enabling SPAs submitted after the last day of the quarter to have an effective date in a previous quarter, but no earlier than the effective date of the public health emergency. 7KH 6WDWH RI .DQVDV UHTXHVWHG D ZDLYHU RI SXEOLF QRWLFH UHTXLUHPHQWV DSSOLFDEOH WR WKH 63$ VXEPLVVLRQ SURFHVV Pursuant to section 1135(b)(1)(C) of the Act, CMS is also waiving public notice requirements applicable to the state plan amendment (SPA) submission process. Public notice for SPAs is required under 42 C.F.R. §447.205 for changes in statewide methods and standards for setting Medicaid payment rates, 42 C.F.R. §447.57 for changes to premiums and cost sharing, and 42 C.F.R. §440.386 for changes to Alternative Benefit Plans (ABPs). Pursuant to section 1135(b)(1)(C) of the Act, CMS is approving the state’s request for flexibility to waive these notice requirements otherwise applicable to SPA submissions. 7KH VWDWH RI .DQVDV DOVR UHTXHVWHG D ZDLYHU WR PRGLI\ WKH WULEDO FRQVXOWDWLRQ WLPHOLQH DSSOLFDEOH WR WKLV 63$ VXEPLVVLRQ SURFHVV Pursuant to section 1135(b)(5) of the Act, CMS is also allowing states to modify the timeframes associated with tribal consultation required under section 1902(a)(73) of the Act, including shortening the number of days before submission or conducting consultation after submission of the SPA. These waivers or modifications of the requirements related to SPA submission timelines, public notice, and tribal consultation apply only with respect to SPAs that meet the following criteria: (1) the SPA provides or increases beneficiary access to items and services related to COVID-19 (such as by waiving or eliminating cost sharing, increasing payment rates or amending ABPs to add services or providers); (2) the SPA GRHV not restrict or limit payment or services or otherwise burden beneficiaries and providers; and (3) the SPA is temporary, with a specified sunset date that is not later than the last day of the declared COVID-19 public health emergency (or any extension thereof). We nonetheless encourage states to make all relevant information about the SPA available to the public so they are aware of the changes. We conducted our review of your submittal according to the statutory requirements at section 1902(a) of the Act and implementing regulations. This letter is to inform you that Kansas’ Medicaid SPA Transmittal Number 20-0012 is approved effective March 1, 2020. Enclosed is a copy of the CMS-179 summary form and the approved state plan pages.

The state is expanding PE to include Parents and other Caretaker Relatives, Former Foster Care and Breast and Cervical Cancer (in addition to children and Pregnant Women); and to include the online PE application/portal in both hospital presumptive eligibility and presumptive eligibility. The PE Tool is being enhanced to use a single application for Medicaid/CHIP and presumptive eligibility. Presumptive eligibility is being expanded to allow all Qualified Entities (QE) to complete PE determinations. This will expand all Qualified Entities’ ability to complete PE determinations for parents and caretaker relatives, former foster care children and individuals seeking treatment for breast or cervical cancer in addition to the pregnant woman and children. The portal allows individuals to apply for PE using an online PE-only application, and may also elect to submit both a PE and a full online Medicaid/CHIP application.

Dear Ms. Fertig:
The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) reviewed the proposed Medicaid State Plan Amendment (SPA) submitted under transmittal number (TN) 23-0011.

This disregard was originally approved in Disaster Relief SPA 22-0029 and is now being approved with the following modification: changing the effective date from the day after the COVID-19 public health emergency ends to April 1, 2023.
