Final Report of the Indiana Legislative Services Agency Interim Study Committee on Medicaid Supplemental Programs

The Indiana Legislative Services Agency reviewed federal intergovernmental transfer leveraging and alternative revenue generating options if the federal government determines that Indiana's currently used leveraging is invalid. The committee also reviewed the merits and effect of expanding the Indiana Check-Up Plan to cover additional childless adults through a federal Medicaid waiver or Medicaid state plan amendment. The committee also reviewed federal rules, regulations, and policies relating to the Hospital Care for the Indigent program, Upper Payment Limit program, and the Disproportionate Share Hospital program and issues involving the three programs.
