C. Total Expenditures for Home & Community-Based Services
Completed during the second reporting period (July-December) and for close-out.
1. Do you require modifying the Actual Level of Spending for last period?
Yes
(If Yes) Please describe why the changes were necessary and update in the table
below.

No
On the next page, grantees should report total Medicaid HCBS Expenditures (federal and state funds)
for all Medicaid recipients (not just MFP participants), including: expenditures for all 1915c waiver
programs, home health services, and personal care if provided as a State Plan optional service. It
should also include HCBS spending on MFP participants (qualified, demonstration and supplemental
services), and HCBS capitated rate programs to the extent that HCBS spending can be separated
from the total capitated rate.
HCBS Expenditures: Actual level of spending for each Calendar Year (CY) or State Fiscal Year (SFY)
(column 4) is the sum of:
1) HCBS expenditures for all 1915c waivers and state plan HCBS services -- from CMS 64
data and
2) MFP expenditures -- from MFP Financial Reporting Forms A and B.
Grantees should enter total annual spending once each year. When making updates or corrections to
actual spending amounts reported for the previous year, please check the 'yes' box at the top of this
page to flag such changes.

D. Additional Benchmarks
•

This section requests information and data on progress made towards achieving the state’s
additional MFP benchmarks, at least one of which reflects the state’s reinvestment of savings
generated under MFP to rebalance the state’s long-term care system. The information below
reflects your state’s additional benchmarks as described in the CMS-approved Operational
Protocol. If your state has not achieved the benchmark measure for this reporting period, please
use the text box below to explain the barriers or challenges that have hindered progress, and
plans to address them.

•

Benchmarks for grantees participating in the Tribal Initiative can be added here.

□

For every service and program that serves MFP individuals, the state must have a quality
management strategy consistent with the section 1915(c) waiver requirements including the use
of 	performance measures, remediation strategies, trending and analysis, and the implementation
of quality improvement initiatives. In addition, the state must also have the following three quality
requirements in place in order to assure the health and welfare of MFP participants upon
discharge to a community setting:
□
1. A critical incident reporting and management system and a process to ensure that the
system is working as planned;
2. A risk assessment and mitigation protocol and a process to ensure that the protocol is
working as planned; and

process to ensure that the system is working as planned. A critical incident (e.g., abuse, neglect
and exploitation) is an event that could bring harm, or create potential harm, to a participant.
Please complete the table below to report on each type of critical incident related to the MFP
program and MFP participants.
