Pursuant to the requirements outlined in 42 CFR 447.205, notice is hereby given that the Iowa Department of Human Services (DHS) has posted for public comment Medicaid State Plan Amendment (SPA) 20-004.
This SPA proposes an update to align with federal policy. Section 53102(a)(1) of the Bipartisan Budget Act (BBA) of 2018 amends section 1902(a)(25)(E) of the BBA to require a state to cost avoid for prenatal services.
The BBA includes several provisions, which modify third party liability (TPL) rules related to special treatment of certain types of care and payment. One change was to remove the exemption from TPL for prenatal services effective February 9, 2018.
