The Arizona Health Care Cost Containment System (AHCCCS) is hosting community meetings across the state to provide the public with information on upcoming AHCCCS initiatives and listen to feedback from stakeholders, including members, their families, advocates, and providers.
Agenda

AHCCCS Complete Care began October 1, 2018. Hear updates on the progress of integration and planned next steps.
Request for Information (RFI) on Regional Behavioral Health Authority (RBHA) Services Transfer
On February 12, 2019, AHCCCS issued a request for information regarding the services provided by the Regional Behavioral Health Authorities (RBHAs). AHCCCS wants to engage stakeholders around important system design questions and decisions that need to be made in order to continue to effectively serve the populations enrolled in the RBHAs.
Waiver Updates
On January 18, 2019 AHCCCS received Waiver Amendment approval from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) to implement community engagement requirements for some able bodied AHCCCS members ages 19 to 49, and to limit retroactive coverage for some applicants to the beginning of the month in which the Medicaid application is filed. AHCCCS will provide an overview of the approved demonstration programs.
