As CHIP vendors no longer processed eligibility determinations and recertifications effective August 1, 2017, the only CHIP payments still classifiable as ‘Subrecipient’ payments would be premium payments associated with individuals whose eligibility determination or recertification was processed by their health plan for the period between April 1 st and July 31 st , 2017. The corrected contractor versus subrecipient expenditure breakout has been provided so that the correct information is now reflected on the State’s SFY 2017-18 Single Audit report. Also, the Department is reviewing the criteria in the finding and will notify the CHIP vendors of the proper classification. Anticipated Completion Date: Corrective action has been implemented. CHIP Vendors will be notified of the proper classification by January 31, 2019.
