On June 11, America’s Essential Hospitals and 11 additional stakeholder groups sent a letter to the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) regarding Medicaid supplemental reporting requirements in the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2021 (CAA).
The CAA established criteria for a Medicaid supplemental payment reporting system.
The letter urges CMS to partner with stakeholders who can offer technical expertise and context as needed in developing the supplemental payment reporting system. As the reports will be made public and used by researchers and policymakers, ample stakeholder input will ensure data is accurate and fairly represented.
