Dear Dr. Shah:
This letter is in regard to the state´s September 28, 2012 acceptance letters to the amended Partnership Plan (11–W–00114/2) and Federal–State Health Reform Partnership (11–W–00234/2) Special Terms and Conditions (STCs).
The state requested in its acceptance letter and subsequent discussions, some technical changes to the STCs. The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services has incorporated the technical changes into the latest version of the STCs, which are enclosed with this letter.
We look forward to continuing our discussions with your staff on New York´s request to transition the states section 1915(c) waiver, the Long–Term Home Health Care Program, into the Managed Long Term Care program, including discussions of spousal impoverishment provisions.
We look forward to continuing to work with your staff on the administration of this Demonstration.
Sincerely,
Angela D. Garner, Deputy Director
Division of State Demonstrations and Waivers
