Homewood v. McCarthy Settlement Agreement Regarding Ohio Medicaid Eligibility Redeterminations
On April 2, 2015, a federal district court judge ruled that Ohio’s Medicaid redetermination processes were flawed, and issued a temporary restraining order directing the state to restore benefits to the named plaintiffs in Homewood v. McCarthy. On May 11, 2015, the Ohio Department of Medicaid reached a settlement agreement with the Homewood plaintiff class that will result in reinstatement of Medicaid coverage for over 180,000 beneficiaries across Ohio who lost coverage between January 1, 2015 and March 31, 2015 as a result of the flawed renewal process . . .
