The effective date of this SPA is October 1, 2013.
Until June 30, 2014, the state is using an interim alternative single streamlined paper application and an interim alternative application used to apply for multiple human service programs. Until December 31, 2014, the state is using an interim alternative single streamlined online application. The state will implement revised applications that will address CMS concerns outlined in the companion letter issued with this SPA approval.
Enclosed is a copy of the following $94 state plan pages and attachments to be incorporated within a separate section at the end of Utah’s approved state plan:
e §94, pages S94-1 and S94-2
e Attachment 1 — Statement related to coordination of eligibility and enrollment
e Attachment 2— Statement of use with respect to the alternative single, streamlined online application
e Attachment 3 — Statement of use with respect to the alternative single, streamlined paper application
In addition, enclosed is a summary of the state plan pages which are superseded by SPA 14- 0002MM, which should also be incorporated into a separate section in the front of the state plan.

Dear Mr. Hales:
This letter is being sent as a companion to Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) approval of state plan amendment (SPA) UT 14-0002-MM, which was submitted to CMS on August 27, 2013. Our review of this submission included a review of the alternative single ~
streamlined paper and online applications developed by the state.
Until June 30, 2014 the state is using an interim alternative single streamlined paper application and an interim alternative application used to apply for multiple human service programs. Until December 31, 2014, the state is using an interim alternative single streamlined online application. These interim applications need to be revised to reflect the following changes.
Necessary changes:
Date by which changes will be completed:
programs):
Paper Application (including the application used to apply for multiple human service
The paper application will provide a space to indicate who in the household has each type and amount of income and deduction.
June 30, 2014
The paper application will remove language on the employer coverage form which states “This form MUST be completed by your employer or your company’s Human Resources representative. Any blanks left on this form may delay the process”, and replace it with language that will encourage people to apply who might not be able to gather this information easily.

We recommend that in a future version of your 61-MED application you label the questions on page 6 as an attachment, with formatting similar to Attachments
(A)-(D).
Recommendation
Online Application:
The introductory language to the application should make clear that you can apply for APTC through MyCase, as well as through the federally facilitated Marketplace.
January 1, 2014
The online application must provide an opportunity for the application filer to indicate whether he or she is applying for benefits for him/herself early enough in the application so that if not applying, the household member is not asked for his/her citizenship, immigration status, or residency. An SSN requ.ct of non-applicants must be clearly optional in accordance with 42 CFR 435.907(e).
July 1, 2014
(By January 1, 2014, Utah will add language to clarify that non-applicants may skip questions on citizenship and immigration status.)
The online application will ask for the date that a household member joined the household only when there is an indication that there has been a recent move or change in household.
July 1, 2014
The following questions will not appear on applications for MAGI-based health coverage only:
e Questions regarding the amount of non-taxable income, such as income from child support and SSI
© Questions regarding assets and non-MAGI disregards
July 1, 2014
Applicants who do not appear eligible for Medicaid and CHIP based on income attestation will be asked whether they are offered health insurance from a job, and if so, will be asked additional details about that insurance offer, which they can submit in an online format.

Medicaid Eligibility Yes C' No Select one or both: I I lie state has standards that relate to the proportion of individuals determined presumptively eligible who submit a regular application, as described at 42 CI- R 435. 907, before the end of the presumptive eligibility period. The State has set a standard for hospitals to provide 100% of all PF applications completed by the hospital site to the Department of' Workfbrce Services( DWS). DWS enters the [ IF decision into the client eligibility system and issues medical assistance cards to eligible individuals. The hospital PIE application can be used to apply for ongoing assistance. Applicants only have to answer the questions required to make the PE decision and sign that paper application. The hospital staff' are expected to let individuals know that they can apply for ongoing assistance using the PE application, and must offer assistance to applicants in completing the application. Description of standards: Individuals are encouraged, but not required to complete the full application if they want to use the PE application to appIN, for ongoing assistance. Applicants for PE may choose not to submit a full application at the time they are doing the PE application. The applicant may also choose to apply later using a different application process.' I he hospital Pl". application includes a question about using the PE application to apply for ongoing medical assistance. Z DWS will accept the PE application as a full application for ongoing medical assistance when the applicant indicates lie wants to apply for ongoing assi sta nce. if client does not indicate lie wants to apply for ongoing assistance, DWS only enters the information about the PE decision. I and issues a medical card for presumptive eligibility only. The stale has standards that relate to the proportion of individuals Will) are determined eligible for Medicaid based oil the 1Z Z11 I submission of an application before the end of the presumptive eligibility period. The State has set a standard that the hospital will maintain all 851,6 accuracy rate for its presumptive eligibility decisions based on the information provided by the applicant. The State will conduct periodic reviews of PE applications received from the various sites, and randomly select a sample of cases to review to decide if the hospital made the correct PE decision based on the information provided by the applicant. The State will conduct additional training when a site has a lower accuracy rate, and take corrective actions if needed, which may include disqualifying i a site if improvement does not occur. The state will increase this standard as the hospitals have i had time to learn the process. and based on the findings ftorn reviews. For presumptively eligible individuals who SUbillit applications for OrlgOinlll medical assistance, the State has set a standard that 65410 ofthose will he determined eligible for ongoing Medicaid. Description of standards: We have set the standard based on eligibility statistics from our Presumptive Eligibility lot- Pregnant Women program. We will initially use a slightly lower standard for the hospitals than the average rate of eligibility the state has seen for Pregnant Women cases because this is a new process for hospitals and it includes different populations. The state will utilize data about the number ol' PF cases approved and denied ongoing medical assistance to decide if site is meeting this standard. ' File state may adjust the standard in the future based on its findings. from reviews. Based on the findings from reviews. the state will schedule additional training or take other corrective actions to improve the success rate of' hospitals that are not mecting these standards. If a hospital continues to be unable to meet the perf6miance standards after corrective actions have taken place, the state can disallow the hospital from continuing to make presumptive eligibility ii determinations. Fm The presumptive period begins on the date the determination is made.

PART 2 POLICIES AND PROCEDURES Section 1: WHAT IS HOSPITAL PRESUMPTIVE ELIGIBILITY? With Hospital Presumptive Eligibility (HPE), an individual can temporarily enroll in Medicaid if it appears they are eligible based on preliminary information. Preliminary information includes information regarding the income and household size for the individual. The two departments that oversee the program are the Utah Department of Health ( UDOH) and the Department of Workforce Services ( DWS). UDOH oversees HPE policy and procedure. DWS oversees the ongoing Medicaid eligibility process. UDOH issues Memorandum of Agreements ( MOA) between UDOH and hospitals throughout the state to administer the HPE program. Hospital staff who are trained in the HPE process determine HPE eligibility. Section 3 describes information on the HPE process. Section 2: RULES HOSPITALS MUST COMPLY WITH A hospital must inform UDOH that it intends to make HPE determinations and that it agrees to follow the State' s policies and procedures. UDOH will provide hospitals with information on all policies and procedures related to HPE. A hospital must make HPE determinations in accordance with UDOH' s policies and procedures. If a hospital is not making HPE determinations in accordance with UDOH' s policies and procedures, UDOH will provide the hospital with additional training or other forms of corrective action before disqualifying the hospital. A hospital must also comply with the proficiency standards that UDOH developed for HPE. As of January 1, 2014, UDOH has established a standard of 85 percent accuracy rate on HPE decisions. Accuracy is measured by how accurate the hospital' s determination is based on the information provided by the applicant.
(spa)(ut-14-0007-mm)(approval-document)(page-37)Page 37#
Section 3: SERVICES AND PAYMENT HPE covers an array of Medicaid eligible services including medication, lab work, inpatient and outpatient care. For questions regarding covered services, call Medicaid at 1- 800- 662- 9651. During the HPE period, the client will also be able to receive treatment from other Medicaid providers after they leave the hospital. Hospitals will be paid at regular Medicaid rates. Payment for covered services is guaranteed for a hospital during an individual' s presumptive eligibility period, even if the person fails to complete the full Medicaid application or is ultimately determined to be ineligible for ongoing Medicaid. If an HPE applicant is already covered under Medicaid, the Children' s Health Insurance Program (CHIP), the Primary Care Network (PCN) or the Utah Premium Partnership ( UPP) at the time of application, HPE cannot be authorized by DOH. States will not recoup money from the hospital for services rendered during the HPE period. Section 4: CONFIDENTIALITY All confidential information must be safeguarded from unauthorized disclosure and use. Staff who fail to safeguard confidential information may be subject to both civil and criminal penalties. Confidential information includes identifying information about applicants and recipients, such as names, addresses, telephone numbers, social security numbers, etc. Second, it includes information used to determine eligibility, such as income, assets, medical reports and data, names of persons obligated to provide financial and medical support, etc. Third, it includes information about benefits and medical services provided to individual recipients. Information that cannot be identified to particular applicants and recipients is not confidential information. For example, information stating the total number of HPE recipients is not confidential information because no one person can be identified by the general information.

Section 6: ELIGIBILITY PROCESS Applicants can apply for HPE through any qualified hospital site. The eligibility begins on the date the application is approved by the hospital. SELF- DECLARATION IS USED FOR ALL FACTORS OF ELIGIBILITY. If the applicant is a minor, the applicant' s parent, legal guardian, or representative must sign the application. If the minor is living independently, the minor may apply on his/ her own behalf. A representative for a child may be a relative or other responsible adult living with the child. An applicant may assign an authorized representative to apply on his/ her behalf. The applicant must sign application if possible. If the applicant is unable to sign, the authorized representative may sign the application. In general, the person who signs the application should be someone who can answer the questions on the application. If an applicant is unable to write, he/ she must make a mark on the application and have at least one witness to the signature. To qualify for all HPE programs, applicants must meet the following requirements based on preliminary information provided: Be a U. S. citizen or qualified alien. Qualified aliens are individuals who are not U. S. citizens but have received a lawful permanent residency ( LPR) status for at least five years. Ask for the month and year in which the applicant received the LPR status to determine if the applicant meets this requirement. Nationalized citizens and individuals born in any of the 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, Guam, the Virgin Islands, the Northern Mariana Islands, American Samoa, and Swain' s Island meet U. S. citizenship requirements. o Note: Individuals from the Marshall Islands are not considered U. S. Nationals. Be a Utah resident. Clients may only receive one HPE period within one calendar year and may only receive HPE once per pregnancy period. NOTE- There is no asset test. Clients must not currently receive Medicaid, CHIP, UPP, or PCN. Check the applicant's eligibility status by calling Medicaid at 80)538- 6155 or 1- 800- 662- 9651. Key in the client ID number and use the HPE determination date as the date of the medical service received. If the client is eligible, the system will give the medical program type, health plan, co- pay, mental health coverage information, and TPL information. If a client is open for Medicaid with a spenddown, the client is not eligible for HPE. Clients must not have received a denial for Medicaid, CHIP, UPP or PCN within the past 30 days, unless household circumstances have changed. For example, if the client was denied for Medicaid because his income is too high and now the client reports that his income has changed, determine if the client is eligible for HPE.

Section 7: COMPLETING the HPE APPLICATION: UDOH will supply hospitals with HPE paper applications. General Instructions: Always use the most current application available. The application cover sheet will tell you which questions must be completed for HPE. Ensure the applicant signs the application. Application Clarification: Applicant' s name; this is the full, legal name of applicant. A hyphenated last name is acceptable. Question # 3: If anyone in your household is not a U. S. Citizen or U. S. National, does he or she have a Lawful Permanent Resident card ( Green Card) from U. S. Citizenship and Immigration Services? If an applicant indicates they are a Lawful Permanent Resident with a Green Card and the date that he/ she became a lawful permanent resident is at least five years, he/ she is considered a qualified alien. Question # 6 What is your total gross earned and unearned income ( before taxes) for your household this month? Indicate applicant' s total stated, gross monthly income. Make sure that educational and child support income are not included. Compare this information to the income limit assigned to the household size for the HPE program type. Income guidelines may change yearly. UDOH will e- mail HPE providers with an updated income chart each year. Please be sure you are using the most recent version. See Appendix 1 for the income chart. Page # 9: The applicant must sign the application. Without a signature, the application is incomplete.

Multiply $200 x 4.3 to determine her gross monthly income ($200 x 4.3 = 860). Frankie provides you one $500 (gross) paycheck stub and indicates he is paid on the 1" and 15th of the month.

Here is my analysis: They updated slide 12 to reflect ambulatory prenatal care coverage. Good They have agreed to just 1 PE period in a calendar year. This has been updated in the training manual and slide presentation. Good, but they need to update the SPA template and submit revised versions of the template and training materials in MMDL. They submitted a PE receipt for individuals to use to show proof of coverage during the lag of getting their actual eligibility card. The state has committed in writing to use the receipt as well as working with the pharmacy community to honor the receipt as proof of coverage. Good, but the state did not update the" next steps" Aide to indicate the paper receipt. The State updated the opening language in Section K of the application to indicate the other sections that need to be completed and also referring back to the cover page with instructions, The State also updated the cove=r page to include an opt out for continuing medical benefits. I know some of the recon-(Trended changes to make the application more user friendly were not deal breakers, but I a m not sure= the revisions clarified much, In addition, are you ok with the new " opt out" piece for continuing medical benefits?

DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH& HUMAN SERVICES Centers for Medicare& Medicaid Services 1600 Broadway, Suite 700 Denver, CO 80202-4967 CMS r, Region VIII April 1, 2014 Michael Hales State Medicaid Director Division of Health Care Financing Utah Department of Health P O Box 144102 Salt Lake City, UT 84114- 4102 Dear Mr. Hales: We are reviewing the Utah State Plan Amendment( SPA) 14- 0007, received in the Denver Regional Office on January 3, 2014. This MAGI SPA addresses hospital presumptive eligibility. Before we continue processing the SPA, we need additional clarifying information. 1. The state needs to explain in the subject line of the 179 that its fiscal impact is included in the fiscal impact entered for MAGI eligibility group SPA 14- 0001- MM. 2. The state needs to revise the S21 template on page 3 for the Presumptive Eligibility Limit. The description box should reflect one presumptive eligibility period per calendar year. The State will need to upload the revised S21 template in MMDL with that change. 3. The State will need to revise the training slide deck attachment with the following changes and upload to MMDL: i) Slide 5: Modify to reflect the one presumptive eligibility period per calendar year; ii) Slide 12: Modify to reflect" ambulatory prenatal care" instead of" outpatient prenatal care" as the benefits available to pregnant women during the presumptive eligibility period; and iii) Slide 23 " Next Steps": Modify to reflect a paper receipt will be provided by the hospital to the applicant upon presumptive eligibility determination. 4. The State will need to revise the training manual with the following changes and upload to MMDL: i) Page 7: Modify to reflect the one presumptive eligibility period per calendar year, and ii) Page 14: Modify to reflect " ambulatory prenatal care" instead of" outpatient prenatal care" as the benefits available to pregnant women during the presumptive eligibility period.
(spa)(ut-14-0007-mm)(approval-document)(page-76)Page 76#
5. By July 2014, Utah should incorporate changes to Utah' s single streamline application by providing better instructions to presumptive eligibility applicants on what question are required to be completed when applying for presumptive eligibility. In addition, the state will implement a paper form verifying an individual' s eligibility to be given to the applicant upon determination as well as work to train doctors and pharmacies to accept this paper documentation as proof in the interim until the applicant receives the actual medical card in the mail. Under § 1915( f) of the Social Security Act, a State plan amendment must be approved, disapproved or a request for additional information must be issued within the first 90 days of submittal; if not, a State plan amendment will be deemed approved. The 90- day period for SPA 14- 0007- MM was scheduled to end on April 2, 2014. This request for additional information will stop this 90-day clock. A new 90- day time frame will start on the day when we receive your response. In accordance with our guidelines to all State Medicaid directors dated January 2, 2001, if we have not received the State' s response to our request for additional information within 90 days from the date of this letter, we will initiate disapproval action on the amendment. In addition, because this amendment was submitted after January 2, 2001 and is effective after January 1, 2001, please be advised that we will continue to defer Federal financial participation ( FFP) for State payments made in accordance with this amendment until it is approved. Upon approval, FFP will be available for the period beginning with the effective date through the date of approval. We appreciate our continued dialogue as we work together to resolve the aforementioned outstanding questions. If you or your staff has questions regarding this request please contact Mandy Strom of my staff at ( 303) 844- 7068 or by email at Njandy. StromLta.)cros. hhs. gov. Sincerely, Richard C.

March 28, 2014 Hospital SPA 14-0007- MM Utah' s Response to CMS on Next Steps Needed From today' s discussion with Marielle Kress and Mandy Strom, Utah has outlined the next steps needed to finalize the HIDE SPA. 1. Policy a. Utah will change the limit on presumptive eligibility periods from once every 6 months to one period during the calendar year on the hospital SPA template. Pregnant women will remain as one period per pregnancy. ( We will also seek to amend our SPA for children to be consistent with this policy.) 2. Training a. Modify the training to reflect the eligibility period as mentioned above. ( See p. 7 training manual, & PowerPoint slide 5) b. Modify the training material language to say " ambulatory prenatal care" instead of" outpatient prenatal care" as the benefits available to pregnant women during the presumptive eligibility period. ( See p. 14 training manual, slide 12) 3. Application & forms a. Utah made proposed changes to the applications with better directions for HIDE applicants. We will incorporate these changes in the next iteration expected for July 2014. ( See cover and p. 7) b. Utah created a proposed form for hospitals to give to the applicant upon determination. It verifies the individual' s eligibility for presumptive Medicaid benefits. i. Utah will work with the pharmacy team to train pharmacies and others to accept this letter as proof of eligibility in the few days before the applicant receives their medical card by mail. Expected completion date is July 2014. ii. Utah will follow up with already approved hospital providers to inform them of these changes. 4. Consistency a. Utah will continue its work to align the presumptive processes for all PE programs. Specifically, Utah will seek to automate the eligibility system to allow for PE extensions while the actual eligibility is being determined. Until such a time that it can be automated, an interim solution will be found to extend presumptive pregnant women who apply through the clinic setting.

Thanks so much Mandy. Both Annie and I have been out of the office this week and I will get you questions tomorrow so the RAI can go out by the end of the week. We cannot approve the SPA since we do not have agreement that the state will make the changes. Best, Marielle From: Strom, Mandy L.

( CMS/ WC) Subject: RE: UT 14- 0007-MM= Next Step RAI Marielle and Annie, I have re- reviewed everything submitted as well as spoke with the State today. Here is my analysis: The actual SPA template looks approvable. It does not look like the state made edits to the training manual or slide presentation based on our informal comments. As for the additional questions you sent to the state, but the state had already submitted its revisions to CMS so those changes were not incorporated. I was able to speak with Gayle today frorn Utah and she indicated the following: The alternative single streamline application does have a * indicating below that SSN is not required for PE. The rate and ethnicity fields also have * and show optional so not sure what more you want on this piece. She indicated the state is willing to make changes to the application such as adding gt:est.ion 3 in section D for PE, but they will not be printing revised applications to July. They are okay with some type of conditional approval requiring them to make changes. I recommend approval for this SPA and then require changes to the training manual and application in the approval letter. Please let me know your thoughts ASAP.

If the PE application is not an actual part of the SPA, I think the RO could move with approval noting in the approval letter of the SPA that CMS approves the amendment with the understanding that the state will revise the PE application to meet Federal requirements, If the application questions are part of the actual SPA, I think it would be problematic for the RO to approve it as the application questions are not in line with our require=ments ( i. e, asking for SSN and r=ace/ ethnicity), Mandy: have you heard from Gayle or Jeff about their reasons for not making the CMS requested changes in their hospital PE application? Was it a matter of not having time to do so or is the state really apposed to making these changes? Perhaps the state can make the requested changes before the end of the week as well and that would really address the pending questions to allow CMS to move forward with approval.

PART 2 POLICIES AND PROCEDURES Section 1: WHAT IS HOSPITAL PRESUMPTIVE ELIGIBILITY? With Hospital Presumptive Eligibility (HPE), an individual can temporarily enroll in Medicaid if it appears they are eligible based on preliminary information. Preliminary information includes information regarding the income and household size for the individual. The two departments that oversee the program are the Utah Department of Health (UDOH) and the Department of Workforce Services ( DWS). UDOH oversees HPE policy and procedure. DWS oversees the ongoing Medicaid eligibility process. UDOH issues Memorandum of Agreements ( MOA) between UDOH and hospitals throughout the state to administer the HPE program. Hospital staff who are trained in the HPE process determine HPE eligibility. Section 3 describes information on the HPE process. Section 2: RULES HOSPITALS MUST COMPLY WITH A hospital must inform UDOH that it intends to make HPE determinations and that it agrees to follow the State' s policies and procedures. UDOH will provide hospitals with information on all policies and procedures related to HPE. A hospital must make HPE determinations in accordance with UDOH' s policies and procedures. If a hospital is not making HPE determinations in accordance with UDOH' s policies and procedures, UDOH will provide the hospital with additional training or other forms of corrective action before disqualifying the hospital. A hospital must also comply with the proficiency standards that UDOH developed for HPE. As of January 1, 2014, UDOH has established a standard of 85 percent accuracy rate on HPE decisions. Accuracy is measured by how accurate the hospital' s determination is based on the information provided by the applicant. V1, 11 7i> i#_ iii

Section 3: SERVICES AND PAYMENT HPE covers an array of Medicaid eligible services including medication, lab work, inpatient and outpatient care. For questions regarding covered services, call Medicaid at 1- 800- 662- 9651. During the HPE period, the client will also be able to receive treatment from other Medicaid providers after they leave the hospital. Hospitals will be paid at regular Medicaid rates. Payment for covered services is guaranteed for a hospital during an individual' s presumptive eligibility period, even if the person fails to complete the full Medicaid application or is ultimately determined to be ineligible for ongoing Medicaid. If an HPE applicant is already covered under Medicaid, the Children' s Health Insurance Program (CHIP), the Primary Care Network (PCN) or the Utah Premium Partnership ( UPP) at the time of application, HPE cannot be authorized by DOH. States will not recoup money from the hospital for services rendered during the HPE period. Section 4: CONFIDENTIALITY All confidential information must be safeguarded from unauthorized disclosure and use. Staff who fail to safeguard confidential information may be subject to both civil and criminal penalties. Confidential information includes identifying information about applicants and recipients, such as names, addresses, telephone numbers, social security numbers, etc. Second, it includes information used to determine eligibility, such as income, assets, medical reports and data, names of persons obligated to provide financial and medical support, etc. Third, it includes information about benefits and medical services provided to individual recipients. Information that cannot be identified to particular applicants and recipients is not confidential information. For example, information stating the total number of HPE recipients is not confidential information because no one person can be identified by the general information.

Section 6: ELIGIBILITY PROCESS Applicants can apply for HPE through any qualified hospital site. The eligibility begins on the date the application is approved by the hospital. SELF- DECLARATION IS USED FOR ALL FACTORS OF ELIGIBILITY. If the applicant is a minor, the applicant' s parent, legal guardian, or representative must sign the application. If the minor is living independently, the minor may apply on his/ her own behalf. A representative for a child may be a relative or other responsible adult living with the child. An applicant may assign an authorized representative to apply on his/ her behalf. The applicant must sign application if possible. If the applicant is unable to sign, the authorized representative may sign the application. In general, the person who signs the application should be someone who can answer the questions on the application. If an applicant is unable to write, he/ she must make a mark on the application and have at least one witness to the signature. To qualify for all HPE programs, applicants must meet the following requirements based on preliminary information provided: Be a U. S. citizen or qualified alien. Qualified aliens are individuals who are not U. S. citizens but have received a lawful permanent residency (LPR) status for at least five years. Ask for the month and year in which the applicant received the LPR status to determine if the applicant meets this requirement. Nationalized citizens and individuals born in any of the 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, Guam, the Virgin Islands, the Northern Mariana Islands, American Samoa, and Swain' s Island meet U. S. citizenship requirements. o Note: Individuals from the Marshall Islands are not considered U. S. Nationals. Be a Utah resident. Clients may only receive one HPE period within a six- month period and may only receive HPE once per pregnancy period. NOTE- There is no asset test. Clients must not currently receive Medicaid, CHIP, UPP, or PCN. Check the applicant's eligibility status by calling Medicaid at 80)538- 6155 or 1- 800- 662- 9651. Key in the client ID number and use the HPE determination date as the date of the medical service received. If the client is eligible, the system will give the medical program type, health plan, co- pay, mental health coverage information, and TPL information. If a client is open for Medicaid with a spenddown, the client is not eligible for HPE. Clients must not have received a denial for Medicaid, CHIP, UPP or PCN within the past 30 days, unless household circumstances have changed. For example, if the client was denied for Medicaid because his income is too high and now the client reports that his income has changed, determine if the client is eligible for HPE.

Section 7: COMPLETING the HPE APPLICATION: UDOH will supply hospitals with HPE paper applications. General Instructions: Always use the most current application available. The application cover sheet will tell you which questions must be completed for HPE. Ensure the applicant signs the application. Application Clarification: o Applicant' s name; this is the full, legal name of applicant. A hyphenated last name is acceptable. o Question # 3: If anyone in your household is not a U. S. Citizen or U.S. National, does he or she have a Lawful Permanent Resident card (Green Card) from U. S. Citizenship and Immigration Services? If an applicant indicates they are a Lawful Permanent Resident with a Green Card and the date that he/ she became a lawful permanent resident is at least five years, he/ she is considered a qualified alien. Question # 6 What is your total gross earned and unearned income (before taxes) for your household this month? Indicate applicant' s total stated, gross monthly income. Make sure that educational and child support income are not included. Compare this information to the income limit assigned to the household size for the HPE program type. Income guidelines may change yearly. UDOH will e- mail HPE providers with an updated income chart each year. Please be sure you are using the most recent version. See Appendix 1 for the income chart. Page # 9: The applicant must sign the application. Without a signature, the application is incomplete.

Section 10: INCOME Count the gross income ( before taxes) of everyone that is included in the household size for the specific program with the following exceptions: Do not count the income of a child to another child ( sibling) Do not count the income of a child to a parent Do not count the income of a guardian to the child( ren) that the guardian is responsible for. Examples of whose income to count are as follows: Family consists of a father, mother, and two children. The child is approved for HPE. The parents' income counts toward the child' s HPE eligibility. The income of the sibling does not count toward the child approved for HPE. Family consists of a father, mother, and a child. The father is approved for HPE. Income of the mother counts toward the father's HPE eligibility. Income of the child doesn't count toward the father's HPE eligibility. Educational income and child support are not countable sources of income. Do not include the income when counting the household income. For the presumptive Former Foster Care program, there is no income limit for this program. Note: PAYCHECK STUBS ARE NOT REQUIRED. However, if an applicant provides you with paycheck stubs to help you determine their gross monthly income, use the following procedure to calculate their income: When paychecks are received twice a month, multiply the gross paycheck amount by 2. If paychecks are received every other week, multiply the gross paycheck amount by 2. 15. If received weekly, multiply the gross paycheck amount by 4.3. o Income calculation examples: Johnny provides you one $500 (gross) paycheck stub and indicates he is paid every other Friday. Multiply $500 x 2. 15 to determine his gross monthly income ($500 x 2. 15 1075). Mary provides you one $ 200 (gross) paycheck stub and indicates she is paid every Wednesday. Multiply $200 x 4.3 to determine her gross monthly income ($200 x 4.3 = 860). Frankie provides you one $ 500 ( gross) paycheck stub and indicates he is paid on the 1s' and 15th of the month. Multiply $500 x 2 to determine his gross monthly income 500 x 2 = $ 1000).

Utah State Plan Amendment( SPA) 521— Hospital Presumptive Eligibility CMS Comments for SPA Submission The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services ( CMS) is reviewing State plan amendment ( SPA) S21 submitted by the Utah Department of Health. This SPA proposes to enact changes related to hospital presumptive eligibility( HPE). Thank you for the opportunity to review this SPA. In this document, CMS provides comments for this SPA for the State' s consideration and to facilitate future discussion. Please note that we may have further questions, pending the State' s responses. We are available to discuss these at the State' s request. General Questions 1. Please provide a copy of the single streamlined application with the required fields noted that the state will use to determine HPE. 2. Please provide a copy of the application cover sheet that identifies the necessary fields for HPE, as referenced in the training materials. Page 2 of 3 3. The state has indicated that it is establishing standards for qualified hospitals making eligibility determinations. a. The state has written that it will require hospitals to assist applicants in completing a full Medicaid application and the hospital will submit these applications to the Department of Workforce Services for 100% of the individuals completing an application for a presumptive eligibility decision. i. Please note that a full Medicaid application cannot be a requirement of an HPE determination. ii. Please describe how the state arrived at the 100% standard. b. The state has written that it will require that the hospital will maintain an 85% accuracy rate for its presumptive eligibility determinations. Does the state plan to review every HPE determination made for accuracy? c. The state has selected that it will require a standard of 65% of individuals who are determined presumptively eligible are determined eligible for full Medicaid. Please briefly describe how the state selected this 65% standard. d. Please provide a description of how the state will retrain hospitals and institute corrective action for underperforming hospitals. Attachment: HPE Training Manual 4. There are additional immigration statuses that are considered eligible immigration statuses for purposes of Medicaid eligibility. It may help hospitals to provide this list and say that the individual must be a " U. S. Citizen or have eligible immigration status". The list can be found here: https:/,,www.liealtheare. 4ov/ iniuni-, rat ion-status- and- the- marketplace/. 5. On page 9, please either include the five percent disregard for each of the eligibility levels, or direct the hospitals to subtract five percent from each individual' s FPL found from their gross income.

Utah State Plan Amendment( SPA) S21— Hospital Presumptive Eligibility CMS Comments for SPA Submission 6. On page 13, it may make sense to include the questions that ascertain which group the individual may be eligible for. For example, the state should include a question on whether the individual was in foster care at age 18, or whether they are a parent or caretaker relative with a dependent child under age 19. 7. On page 15, the training materials state that " DWS will issue the HPE card for the current month and determine eligibility for ongoing Medicaid. DWS will send the approval/ denial notice and card." a. Please note that a full Medicaid application cannot be a requirement of an HPE determination. i. Please describe the state' s process to ensure an opt-out mechanism for individuals who cannot or do not want to file a full Medicaid application. ii. If only the sections necessary for HPE are completed and the information is transmitted to DWS, will this result in a denial for full Medicaid based on a submission of incomplete information? This could have the unintended consequence of ending an HPE period earlier than the period that the individual is entitled to, regardless of whether or not the individual files a full Medicaid application. b. Please add information clarifying the HPE coverage in the event that an individual does not complete a full Medicaid application. If a full Medicaid application is not filed by the last day of the month following the month in which HPE eligibility was determined, then HPE coverage ends on the last day of the month following the month in which HPE eligibility was determined. Attachment: HPE Training Powerpoint 8. On slide 12, please clarify that for pregnant women, only ambulatory prenatal care is covered during an HPE period. Page 2 of 1

I just wanted to follow-up with you on Utah 14-0007- MM PE SPA. Have you had a chance to review it? I have looked over the template and training materials and it looked pretty good to me, but I am also not a PE expert. The one comment I did have is below: Utah needs to add a note as to why fiscal impact is$ 0 and reference 14-0001- MM. The State could not break out its fiscal impact for all the different MAGI SPAs so they plan to include the full impact in 14-0001- MM and just put$ 0 for the others and reference back to 0001.

David Patton, Ph.D. Utah Department of Health 288 North 1460 West PO Box 143102 Salt Lake City, UT 84114 RE: Utah # 14- 0035- MM1 Dear Dr. Patton: We have reviewed the proposed MAGI State Plan Amendment (SPA) submitted under transmittal number( TN) 14- 0035- MM1. This SPA removes the presumptive eligibility for children program in Utah. This program was only utilized for a small number of foster care children and is being discontinued due to low/no enrollment. Children can still access presumptive eligibility through the Hospital PE program. Please be informed that this State Plan Amendment was approved November 17, 2014 with an effective date of October 1, 2014. We are enclosing the Summary Form ( similar to the CMS- 179) and the amended plan page( s). If you have any questions concerning this amendment, please contact Ann Clemens at 303) 844- 2125. Sincerely, s/ Mary Marchioni Acting Associate Regional Administrator Division for Medicaid and Children' s Health CC: Michael Hales, Medicaid Director, UT Craig Devashrayee, UT

42 CFR Attachment 4.19-B 440.90 Page 2f 14. UPL Calculation Overview For purposes of calculating the Medicaid outpatient hospital upper payment limits for hospitals, the state shall utilize hospital specific Medicare outpatient cost to charge ratios applied to Medicaid charges. The Medicaid upper payment limit for state hospitals and non-state government owned hospitals are independently calculated. Each Medicaid upper payment limit shall be offset by hospital Medicaid and other third party outpatient payments to determine the available spending room (i.e., the gap) applicable to each Medicaid upper payment limit. The base year utilized to determine each Medicaid upper payment limit shall be trended to the applicable spending year as follows: • Inflation trend shall be an annual average calculated using the consumer price index available the December prior to the start of each state fiscal year for "Outpatient Hospital Services" as published by the U.S. Department of Labor, U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics as compared to the previous December. • Utilization trend shall be calculated using historical Utah Medicaid outpatient hospital services data. The utilization trend for State Fiscal Year 2021 shall be -2.8 percent. Following is the data used to calculate the UPL for each state fiscal year: Medicare Cost to Charge ratio: • 2552-96: Costs are from Worksheet D, Part V, Columns 9, 9.01, 9.02, 9.03 line 104 • 2552-10: Costs are from Worksheet D, Part V, Columns 5, 6, and 7 line 202 • 2552-96: Charges are from Worksheet D, Part V, Columns 5, 5.01, 5.02, 5.03 line 104 • 2552-10: Charges are from Worksheet D, Part V, Columns 2, 3, 4 line 202 Note: As Medicare may amend the cost report structure from that noted above, corresponding Medicare Cost Report data will be used in place of the elements noted above. The hospitals in the analysis have fiscal year ends during the state fiscal year Medicaid Charges and payments - Paid hospital outpatient claims from services in a recent period and as available at the time the calculation is made. Costs for critical access hospitals shall be calculated at 101 percent of cost with any appropriate inflation and utilization added as noted above. __________________________________________________________________________________________________ T.N. # 20-0004 Approval Date________ Supersedes T.N. # 19-0008 Effective Date 7-1-20 05/26/20

Box 141000 Salt Lake City, UT 84114- 1000 Re: Utah State Plan Amendment (SPA) 20-0006 Dear Mr. Checketts: 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) 20-0006. 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 bythe Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services(CMS),to ensurethatsufficienthealth careitemsand servicesare available to meet theneeds of individuals enrolledin therespective programsand to ensurethat health care providersthatfurnish 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 exempted fromsanctionsforsuchnoncompliance,absentanydeterminationoffraud orabuse.Thisauthoritytook 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. 3XUVXDQW WR VHFWLRQ E

DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH & HUMAN SERVICES Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services 7500 Security Boulevard, Mail Stop S2-26-12 Baltimore, Maryland 21244-1850 June 5, 2020 Nathan Checketts State Medicaid Director Division of Health Care Financing Utah Department of Health P O Box 144102 Salt Lake City UT 84114-4102 Re: Utah State Plan Amendment (SPA) UT-20-0009 Dear Mr. Checketts: We have reviewed the proposed amendment to add section 7.5 Medicaid Disaster Relief for the COVID-19 National Emergency to your Medicaid state plan, as submitted under transmittal number (TN) UT-20-0009. 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 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. The State of Utah also requested a waiver of public notice requirements applicable to the SPA submission process. Pursuant to section 1135(b)(1)(C) of the Act, CMS is waiving public notice requirements applicable to the 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 to waive these notice requirements otherwise applicable to SPA submissions. The State of Utah also requested a waiver to modify the tribal consultation timeline applicable to this SPA submission process. 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 does 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 Utah’s Medicaid SPA Transmittal Number UT-20-0009 is approved effective March 1, 2020.

Public notice requirements on page 1. Enclosed is a copy of the CMS-179 summary form and the approved state plan pages.

Revision: HCFA-PM-87-9 (BERC) ATTACHMENT 4.22-B November 1993 Page 1 STATE PLAN UNDER TITLE XIX OF THE SOCIAL SECURITY ACT State: UTAH 1. For coordination of benefits, providers are required to bill the liable third parties prior to filing with Utah Medicaid. This includes, but is not limited to, prenatal services, including labor, delivery, and postpartum care services. Understanding the flexibility afforded in the provisions of 1902(a)(25)(E) and (F) of the Social Security Act which would allow the state to cost avoid for up to 90 days for preventive pediatric services, including EPSDT and up to 100 days for claims related to State IV-D, Utah Medicaid is not implementing such options. Rather, to improve access to care, Utah Medicaid will not cost avoid claims for preventive pediatric services, including EPSDT services for members under the age of 21 including individuals on whose behalf child support enforcement is being carried out by the State IV-D agency. 2. Thresholds for Health Insurance Claims $100.00 for single claims (health insurance only) $300.00 for accumulative claims 3.

Mandatory Continuous Eligibility for Pregnant Women The state provides continuous eligibility to pregnant individuals who were eligible and enrolled under the state plan, without regard to any changes in income that otherwise would result in ineligibility, through the last day of the month in which a 60-day postpartum period (beginning on the last day of the pregnancy) ends. This extension does not apply to pregnant individuals eligible only during a period of presumptive eligibility. B. Optional 12-Month Postpartum Continuous Eligibility for Pregnant Women The state provides continuous eligibility to pregnant individuals who were eligible and enrolled under the state plan while pregnant (including during a period of retroactive eligibility) through the last day of the month in which a 12-month postpartum period (beginning on the last day of the pregnancy) ends. The 12-month postpartum continuous eligibility option applies for the period beginning on the effective date of this reviewable unit and is available through March 31, 2027 (or other date as specified by law). 1. This extension does not apply to pregnant individuals eligible only during a period of presumptive eligibility. 2. Full benefits are provided for a pregnant or postpartum individual under this option. This includes all items and services covered under the state plan (or waiver) that are not less in amount, duration, or scope than, or are determined by the Secretary to be substantially equivalent to, the medical assistance available for an individual described in subsection 1902 (a)(10)(A)(i) of the Act. 3. Continuous eligibility is provided to pregnant individuals eligible and enrolled under the state plan through the end of the 12-month postpartum period who would otherwise lose eligibility because of a change in circumstances, unless: a. The individual requests voluntary termination of eligibility; b. The individual ceases to be a resident of the state; c. The Medicaid agency determines that eligibility was determined incorrectly at the most recent determination or redetermination of eligibility because of agency error or fraud, abuse or perjury attributed to the individual; or d. The individual dies. C. Additional Information (optional) Section 5113 of the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2023 eliminated, without replacement, the March 31, 2027, sunset date of the 12-month postpartum continuous eligibility option. Therefore, the durational limit of the option that is described in Section B. does not apply. PRA Disclosure Statement: Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) collects this mandatory information in accordance with (42 U.S.C. 1396a) and (42 CFR 430.12); which sets forth the authority for the submittal and collection of state plans and plan amendment information in a format defined by CMS for the purpose of improving the state application and federal review processes, improve federal program management of Medicaid programs and Children’s Health Insurance Program, and to standardize Medicaid program data which covers basic requirements, and individualized content that reflects the characteristics of the particular state’s program.
