Unwinding Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) Public Health Emergency (PHE) Flexibilities

When: March 15, 2023, 2:00-3:30 PM ET

Initially presented February 8th and being presented again due to popular demand.

In this webinar we will be discussing state requirements and opportunities for resuming Medicaid HCBS operations when we approach the end of the PHE.  This includes:

  • CMS resources to support states in unwinding PHE flexibilities, including considerations for HCBS. 
  • Overview of HCBS-related PHE flexibilities to unwind, with a focus on the 1915(c) HCBS Appendix K authority. 
  • Overview of HCBS-related PHE flexibilities that can be made permanent in 1915(c) waivers and the CMS approval process. 
  • Other considerations for HCBS programs when unwinding from the PHE. 

Following the presentation, webinar participants will have the opportunity to ask questions.
