Eligibility Criteria
State Medicaid Agencies (SMAs) for the 50 states, District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, Guam, American Samoa, and the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands are eligible to apply. CMS understands that in some states and territories the minimum number of births may not occur in any substate region and therefore certain states or territories may need to implement the model state- or territory-wide to meet the 1,000 birth a year minimum. In addition, CMS encourages applicants to include rural, underserved, and Tribal areas in its proposed test region, where appropriate.
