A Medicaid and CHIP state plan is an agreement between a state and the Federal government describing how that state administers its Medicaid and CHIP programs. It gives an assurance that a state will abide by Federal rules and may claim Federal matching funds for its program activities. The state plan sets out groups of individuals to be covered, services to be provided, methodologies for providers to be reimbursed and the administrative activities that are underway in the state.
When a state is planning to make a change to its program policies or operational approach, states send state plan amendments (SPAs) to the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) for review and approval. States also submit SPAs to request permissible program changes, make corrections, or update their Medicaid or CHIP state plan with new information.

Summary: This State Plan Amendment proposes to revise the rate setting methodology for NYS Office of Alcoholism and Substance Abuse Services (OASAS) freestanding Medically Supervised Inpatient Withdrawal (MSIW) programs. The program will move to site-specific per-diem fees, which are inclusive of capital costs, based on a regression model that uses normalized cost per bed in comparison to service volume. Fees will be assigned to each facility based on its base year service volume (as a proxy for bed size) and a regional cost factor. The fees for each bed size are detailed in the SPA.
