Today, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) released guidance to states supporting implementation of the Optional COVID-19 Testing (XXIII) Group established by the Families First Coronavirus Response Act (FFCRA) for uninsured individuals for COVID-19 testing and testing-related services.
This guidance identifies the different requirements associated with implementing the new group (including eligibility and enrollment, claiming, and data reporting), and provides guidance on strategies that states may employ to meet these requirements. It also describes flexibilities available to help states streamline implementation of the new group. States can also refer to Section B of the FFCRA and Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) posted April 13, 2020 for more detailed information on the eligibility requirements, benefits, and Federal Medical Assistance Percentage available for coverage under the optional COVID-19 testing group.
