This presentation will cover the required Medicaid and CHIP changes that will affect ALL jails across the country regarding individuals in your care and custody who are under 21 years old, or under the age of 26 if they were previously in the foster care system. These changes are effective January 1, 2025.

The Challenges:

• What resources are available for states and agencies?
• If your state has received approval for the MIEP 1115 Demonstration, how does it impact the jail?  What should you be aware of?  What resources might be available to help with the implementation process?
• As the Sheriff, does your facility hold individuals that meet the definition of “Youth”?
• Do you have mechanisms in place to determine whether an individual in your care who meets the definition of “Youth” was ever in foster care?
• Who are the strategic partners in your state that you should work with to determine whether the individuals in your care and custody meet the requirements and eligibility for coverage?
• Are resources available to assist you, and what are your next steps?

We hope to provide continued awareness, education, and resources for you and your staff as these changes are implemented. Even if you are already in the process of implementation, we encourage you to attend the presentation.
