Tennessee has received approval from the federal government for an unprecedented change in the Medicaid program which would convert the TennCare program to a block grant funding system. Tennessee is the first state to receive approval for block grant funding for its Medicaid program – in fact, it’s the only state that has ever asked to receive a block grant. Block grant funding could transform the TennCare program by providing Tennessee with a fixed amount of federal funding for the TennCare program in exchange for an increase in flexibility in how the funding is used and how the TennCare program is administered.
Join Stotler Hayes Group, LLC ‘s Tennessee Attorneys- Partner Ashley Harrison Shudan, Senior Associate Jessica Bulos, and Attorney Luke Wingo – for an interactive webinar on Friday, January 15, 2021 at 2 PM ET/1 PM CT to learn what block grant funding is and how it might be administered in Tennessee, the next steps in the process, and what the impact could be for your facilities. Time will be allotted for a live question and answer session about this historic development in the Medicaid program.
If you are unable to attend the live webinar, please email csweet@stotlerhayes.com for alternate arrangements.
