RECENT CMS RELEASES

In August 2024, CMS released an informational bulletin and slide deck to provide additional guidance to states on their obligation to come into compliance with federal regulations on timely processing of Medicaid and CHIP eligibility renewals, as well as provide an update to the timeline in which states must complete unwinding-related renewals. To ensure that individuals who are eligible for Medicaid or CHIP retain coverage, and to assist states in their continued transition to regular renewal processing, CMS is providing states additional time to complete eligibility renewals, address persistent backlogs in processing redeterminations, and ensure that states achieve compliance with federal renewal timeliness requirements by December 2025.
