Audit Report Reference:

2019- 022

Anticipated Completion Date: We are now executing MLTC Partial Capitation Contracts that were approved by CMS on March 1, 2019 for the period January 1, 2017 through December 31, 2021. We anticipate this process (signatures from plan, Attorney General and the Office of State Comptroller) will be complete by no later than the end of this year (December 2019). Corrective Action Planned: The Department has refined its strategies and controls and will continue to work in its capacity to ensure timely contracts are in place for Managed Long Term Care plans. In addition to accelerating processes as much as possible, earlier this summer the Department proposed to CMS recommendations for adjusting the process and timeframes for the contract review process to ensure review and approval processes by both CMS and the Department will occur in a manner that works to ensure the adoption of timely contracts. These proposed recommendations for improving the process are currently under review by CMS. December 2019
