MEDICAID SECTION 1115 DEMONSTRATIONS

Monitoring Metrics for Demonstrations with Community Engagement and Other
Eligibility and Coverage Policies
This document provides an overview of monitoring metrics for states with section 1115
demonstrations that include community engagement (CE), premium or other monthly payment,
marketplace-focused premium assistance, health behavior incentives, or retroactive eligibility
waiver policies. These demonstrations are collectively referred to as eligibility and coverage
demonstrations.
An important goal of monitoring eligibility and coverage demonstrations is to identify trends
that suggest the need for adjustments to improve demonstration performance and protect
beneficiaries. These metrics are designed to monitor demonstration performance while
minimizing state reporting burden. This set focuses on metrics that can be calculated from
Medicaid administrative data. Monitoring metrics may be useful to include in formal evaluations
along with more complex outcome measures and those that draw on non-administrative data
sources, including beneficiary surveys.
These monitoring metrics were developed with input from subject matter experts in the
Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS). While most eligibility and coverage metrics
track administrative processes and monitor protections provided to beneficiaries, a few refer to
established quality measures. 1 Note that these metrics are not stand-alone quality measures
themselves and were not tested as such for the demonstrations. They are intended only for
monitoring progress of eligibility and coverage demonstrations.
The eligibility and coverage metrics are organized into six modules. States will be asked to
report the metrics in module 1 (any demonstration with eligibility and coverage policies) and
those in any additional modules corresponding to the policies included in their demonstration.
For example, a state with section 1115 authority for community engagement and premiums will
report the metrics in the corresponding modules (2 and 5), as well as the module for any
demonstration with eligibility and coverage policies (1). States will only be asked to report
metrics that are relevant given the state’s overall demonstration design. Depending on the
operational details of a state’s demonstration, some metrics may not be applicable. CMS will
work with states to align reporting requirements with specific state policies as needed.
The metrics are listed by module in the tables that follow, beginning with metrics for any
demonstration with eligibility and coverage policies (module 1), and followed by modules for
demonstrations with premiums, premium assistance, health behavior incentives, CE, and
retroactive eligibility waivers (modules 2 through 6). The table for each module includes the
following information:
•

Required or Recommended. Metrics are either required or recommended
-

Required metrics provide information that is critical for monitoring the success of
eligibility and coverage demonstrations and could be constructed with data that are
readily available to states.

Metrics AD_38 through AD_44 in module 1 refer to established quality measures. Metrics AD_38_A and AD_39
through AD_44 are Adult Core Set measures.

PRA Disclosure Statement - This information is being collected to assist the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services in program monitoring of Medicaid Section 1115 Eligibility and Coverage Demonstrations. This mandatory information collection (42 CFR § 431.428) will
be used to support more efficient, timely and accurate review of states’ eligibility and coverage 1115 demonstrations monitoring reports submissions to support consistency of monitoring and evaluation of Medicaid Section 1115 Eligibility and Coverage Demonstrations,
increase in reporting accuracy, and reduce timeframes required for monitoring and evaluation. Under the Privacy Act of 1974 any personally identifying information obtained will be kept private to the extent of the law. An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is
not required to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a currently valid Office of Management and Budget (OMB) control number. The OMB control number for this project is 0938-1148 (CMS-10398 # 58). Public burden for all of the collection of
information requirements under this control number is estimated to take about 12 hours per response. Send comments regarding this burden estimate or any other aspect of this collection of information, including suggestions for reducing this burden, to CMS, 7500 Security
Boulevard, Attn: Paperwork Reduction Act Reports Clearance Officer, Mail Stop C4-26-05, Baltimore, Maryland 21244-1850.

Recommended metrics might be more difficult to obtain than required metrics, but still
provide important information on the operation of a demonstration.

Subpopulations. Some populations may be uniquely impacted by eligibility and coverage
demonstrations. When instructed by metric specifications, states should calculate and report
metrics separately for subpopulations, including:
-

Income groups includes reported income subpopulations defined as less than 50% of the
federal poverty level (FPL), 50-100% FPL, and more than 100% FPL. States should
report income subpopulations using these categories, unless states want to report finer
gradations for income groups along which a policy varies (e.g., 100-115% FPL and
115%+ FPL), in which case those should be reported instead.

-

Specific demographic groups includes age, sex, and race/ethnicity.
♦

Age is defined in groups as follows: 19-26, 27-35, 36-45, 46-55, or 56-64.

♦

Sex is defined as male or female.

♦

Race is defined as White, Black or African American, Asian, American Indian or
Alaskan Native, other, or unknown.

♦

Ethnicity is defined Hispanic, non-Hispanic, or unknown.

-

Exempt groups are in eligibility and income groups that are enrolled in the
demonstration but are not required to participate in elements of the demonstration (such
as community engagement requirements). For example, exempt groups may include
geographic exemptions, employer sponsored insurance exemptions, or exemptions due
to medical frailty. Exempt groups will vary by state based on the special terms and
conditions (STCs) authorizing a demonstration. Exempt groups are included in metrics
in the any demonstration module (module 1), but states are asked to report on them
separately.

-

Specific eligibility groups include section 1931 parents, the new adult group, transitional
medical assistance beneficiaries, and other Medicaid eligibility groups included in the
state’s demonstration. Eligibility groups will vary by state based on the STCs
authorizing a demonstration. Reporting by specific eligibility groups is required for
applicable metrics.

Measurement period. This parameter identifies the data collection time frame for each
metric. Measurement periods may be a month, quarter, or demonstration year or calendar
year. Calendar year metrics, which are the quality of care and health outcomes measures in
module 1, may have additional requirements, such as a continuous eligibility period that
begins in the prior year. Monthly metrics are reported to CMS in quarterly and annual
reports, according to specifications.
