How do I bill for newborn services when the
baby does not have a Medicaid ID number?
• Newborn services may be billed under the mother’s ID#
for the first 45 days for inpatient newborn hospital
charges only.
• Newborn charges billed under the mother’s ID# on a
HCFA will deny with a denial code 77 – “Baby billed
under mother’s member number”. The baby’s ID# must
be utilized.
• If the mother is uninsured, the newborn’s permanent
beneficiary number will have to be received before
payment is rendered.
• Timely filing (for newborn services only) is one year from
the date of service. All other services are 180 days.
We bring it all together for you
Can I receive payment for services if I am not the
member’s designated primary care physician?
• CMFHP will not deny payment for any claim
solely based on the member having received
services from a provider other than his/her
designated PCP.
• As long as the provider is in our network and the
member is eligible for coverage, we will process
the claim for payment.
• CMFHP will also not deny payment for the
services of any participating provider solely
based on no referral from the PCP.

90
Medical Assistance Caretaker
Medical, or MA CM, is a
program for low-income parents
and caretakers of children under
the age of 19.
The income guidelines of this program are at
approximately 32% of the Federal Poverty Level or FPL.
91
MA WT
Medical Assistance Work Transition
Program for households that have
been receiving MA CM coverage but
are now not eligible due to an
increase in wages or earnings.
The children in the household receive
12 months of coverage.
As of July 1, 2010 parents also
receive 12 months of coverage.
92
MA EM
Medical Assistance Extended
Medical
Program for
households that were
receiving MA CM but
are no longer eligible
due to an increase in
child or spousal
support.
Children receive 12
months of coverage.
The parent receives 4
months of coverage.
93
HealthWave 19
Title XIX Medical Program

SCHIP
Family Medical Programs
HealthWave 21
95
HealthWave 21
provides medical
coverage for
children from
birth to the age of
18.
It is designed to
provide coverage
for families who
are over the
income guidelines
for the Medicaid
programs.
96
The income
guidelines for
HealthWave 21
coverage were
set at 200% of
the Federal
Poverty Level,
but January 1,
2010 marked a
change for this
program.
97
Effective on this date, the income
guidelines for HealthWave 21 were
expanded to 241% of the Federal
Poverty Level.
This means that a household of four earning $4,429
a month can now qualify for the HealthWave 21
program.
98
Although some HealthWave 21
recipients are assigned a
premium, Native American
households are exempt from this
requirement.
99
Dependents of state employees are
not eligible for HealthWave 21
coverage due to their access to the
state’s health insurance plan.
This also applies to persons employed by
cities, counties, and school districts that
participate in the state’s health insurance
plan.
100
The HealthWave
Clearinghouse
101
The Clearinghouse is where new applications and
annual reviews are processed.
All case maintenance
actions that occur on
a case are also
worked at the
Clearinghouse.
Case maintenance
actions include
change of address,
adding persons to a
case, and new
requests for
coverage.
102
The Clearinghouse is staffed by
PSI
KHPA
103
PSI staff complete the initial screenings
on all applications, reviews, and case
maintenance actions. They also
complete the determinations on HW 21
cases.
KHPA staff complete the determinations
on any case that has Title 19
involvement.
104
Backlog
1. Budget cuts
2. Staffing decreased
by 24 ESs
3. New Clearinghouse
vendor, PSI,
assumed contract
01/10
4. Significant backlog
from previous
vendor
105
We are working to reduce the backlog
through policy changes, overtime, and
an overall simplification of the eligibility
determination process.
If there is a case that needs to be
worked as soon as possible due to a
medical need, please contact me.

Federal Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP)
•
Overseen by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services or
CMS.
•
Children began receiving insurance through CHIP in 1997 and the
program helped states expand health care coverage to over 5
million of the nation's uninsured children.
•
The program was reauthorized on February 4, 2009, when the
President signed into law the Children's Health Insurance Program
Reauthorization Act of 2009 (CHIPRA or Public Law 111-3).
•
CHIPRA finances the Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP)
through FY 2013.
•
For more information about the program visit the CMS CHIP website at http://www.cms.hhs.gov/home/chip.asp
Kansas HealthWave 21 Network
Kansas Children’s Health Insurance Program
•
CHIP, also known as Title XXI, was implemented in Kansas in 1999.
•
It is a federal-state partnership program. Under CHIP, the federal
government provides approximately 72 percent of the cost up to a
maximum allotment, and the State provides the remaining 28
percent and any excess spent above the federal allotment.
•
In 2001, CHIP was brought together with the state’s health program
under one umbrella, HealthWave, to help ensure a seamless
product. HealthWave enables families with children who are eligible
for CHIP and Medicaid to have the same health plan and health
provider for all family members. The HealthWave program not only
serves CHIP eligible children, but also Medicaid-eligible adults and
children in the Temporary Assistance to Families (TAF) and Poverty
Level Eligible (PLE) programs.

contracting for the CHIP services.
•
RFP 09072 was issued on January 6, 2006 for Capitated Managed
Care Mental/Behavioral Health Services by the Kansas Department
of Administration, Division of Purchases.
•
Cenpatico was awarded the contract with the date of award through
June 30, 2008 with four (4) additional optional one-year renewal
periods.
•
The RFP outlines the General Provisions, Special Provisions, and
Statement of Work.
•
The benefits are mapped to the Medicaid Fee for Service program.

Kansas CHIP Expansion
• In 2008, Kansas authorized expanding eligibility for HW
21. Beginning Jan. 1, 2010 the FPL threshold increased
to 250% of the 2008 FPL.
• The CHIP expansion funded in the FY 2010 budget will
lead to affordable health coverage for more than 9,000
uninsured children in Kansas.
• The CHIP expansion will be funded with a combination
of federal funds, state funds and premiums charged to
beneficiaries.

Medicaid Overview
“Title XIX of the Social Security Act, a Federal/State
entitlement program, pays for medical assistance for
certain individuals and families with low incomes. This
program, known as Medicaid, became law in 1965 as a
cooperative venture jointly funded by the Federal and State
governments (including the District of Columbia and the
Territories) to furnish medical assistance to eligible needy
persons. Medicaid represents the largest source of funding
for medical and health-related services for America's
poorest people.”
