Alabama Medicaid Delays MLTSS Procurement

On August 24, 2017, the Alabama Medicaid Agency announced a revision to the timeline for its Integrated Care Networks (ICN) procurement to launch Medicaid managed long-term services and supports (MLTSS). The ICN program is currently slated to begin no later than October 1, 2018. Due to the timeline revisions, Alabama Medicaid also extended the deadline for organizations intending to collaborate with ICNs to submit their applications for probationary certification. The ICN procurement will include the deadline for the applications for probationary certification. The state has released no further dates, but did state that it would process and review early . . .
