CMS State Medicaid Directors Letter - Revised State Plan Amendment Review Process
Article Publication Date
              Summary
              Changes CMS is making in the State plan amendment (SPA) review process are explained in this letter. CMS has identified a process that will expedite the review of SPAs while ensuring that CMS and States resolve other questions that may arise. States will now have the option to resolve issues related to State plan provisions that are not integral to the SPA through a separate process. Several examples based on actual State plan issues are included.
