CMS approves MTP 2.0
On June 30, 2023, CMS renewed MTP for an additional five years, beginning on July 1, 2023. By renewing MTP, our state can continue to develop innovative projects, activities, and services that improve Apple Health (Medicaid). In our renewal application, we proposed multiple changes to our existing MTP programs and proposed new ones. CMS approved most of these changes.
