AGENCY FOR HEALTH CARE ADMINISTRATION
State Plan Amendment
The Agency for Health Care Administration (Agency) will be requesting an amendment to the Florida Medicaid State Plan. The 2015 General Appropriations Act (GAA) directed the Agency to implement a certified public expenditure program for emergency medical services. The Agency will be seeking federal authority to implement a new reimbursement methodology to provide supplemental payments for emergency ground and air ambulance transportation services furnished by government or publicly owned and operated ambulance providers enrolled in Florida Medicaid.
