Application and Renewal Process for IHCC Groups (210-RICR-40-00-2)

Regulation Authority :

R.I. Gen. Laws Chapters 40-6 and 40-8, as amended; Title XIX of the Social Security Act

Purpose and Reason :

This Technical Revision is being promulgated to correct the rule being superseded by this filing. The previous rule mistakenly superseded ERLID 8673 an emergency amendment of the Medicaid Integrated Health Care Coverage (210-RICR-40-00-1) which is being broken into seven (7) individual Parts through Technical Revision and a Direct Final Amendment. The emergency language in ERLID 8673 will be adopted as part of the Direct Final Amendment (ERLID 8737) Medicaid Integrated Health Care Coverage, SSI Financial Eligibility Determinations (210-RICR-40-00-3) on 9/5/2017 if no objection is received. The emergency language will remain in effect until that time. No changes have been made to the text of the rule with this Technical Revision.

Editorial Notes :

The agency requested an extension to the effective dates allowed by R.I. Gen. Laws § 42-35-2.10 for this emergency amendment which was promulgated on March 24, 2020. The extension was granted in accordance with Executive Order 20-111 which permits extensions for sixty (60) days. As a result of this additional extension, the effective dates have been revised and the regulation will now become ineffective on March 19, 2021.
