Statewide Medicaid Managed Care (SMMC): Continuity of Care (COC) Provisions
Health and dental plans are required to ensure continuity of care during the transition period for SMMC-enrolled Medicaid recipients. COC requirements ensure that members transfer without service lapse between health plans, service providers and service delivery systems (i.e., fee-for-service to managed care).
AHCA has instituted the following COC provisions:
- Healthcare providers should not cancel appointments with current patient
- For 60 days after the rollout date in each region, health plans must honor any ongoing treatment authorized prior to the recipient’s enrollment into that plan
