Description

Accounts for Medicare premium rates that were published after the official Medicaid forecast was completed. During the development of the Medicaid forecast, due November 1, the Department of Medical Assistance Services had to use preliminary assumptions on Medicare premium rates. Since the forecast was finalized, the federal government has released actual Medicare Part A and B rates for effective January 1, 2021. The changes will allow the forecast to be lowered by $14.0 million total funds (over the biennium); thereby reducing the general fund need by $7.4 million.
