Description 'The entire Arizona Medicaid Program operates as a Medicaid Section 1115 demonstration and includes a HIFA amendment that allows for coverage of parents and children with title XXI funds. In addition, Arizona has a targeted family planning demonstration for women with incomes up to 133% FPL who are otherwise ineligible for Medicaid at the end of 60 days post-partum. This demonstration permits the State the flexibility of determining the effectiveness of placing more than 95% of its Medicaid expenditures into managed care.
Status An amendment was approved in March 2008 to eliminate the "Tamper Resistent Prescription Drug Pad" requirement for fee-for-service populations in the State. In October 2008, the demonstration was amended to allow the State to implement a state-wide premium assistance program for title XXI SCHIP eligible children with access to ESI with a family income above 100% FPL through 200% FPL. An amendment request to expand certain benefits and extend eligibility to additional pregnant women and women transitioning into the Family Planning Extension Program, originally submitted June 29, 2007, is still pending, awaiting the State's response to a request for additional information.
