States that elect to cover all United States Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) grade A and B services, Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) recommended vaccines and vaccine administration, without cost-sharing and who receive a SPA approval for such services shall receive the one percentage point FMAP increase per section 4106. Some of these services may also qualify as primary care services eligible for an increase in the payment rates under section 1202 of the Affordable Care Act. For these services, the federal matching rate is 100 percent for the difference between the Medicaid rate as of July 1, 2009 and the payment made pursuant to section 1202 (the increase). The federal matching payment for the portion of the rate related to the July 1, 2009 base payment would be the regular FMAP rate, except that this rate would be increased by one percent if the provisions of section 4106 of the Affordable Care Act were followed.
