This means that authorized benefits will continue to be provided, and that STAR+PLUS MMPs must continue to pay providers for providing services pending an internal STAR+PLUS MMP appeal or Fair Hearing request. Payments will not be recouped based on the outcome of the appeal for services covered during pending appeals. This right to aid pending an appeal currently exists in Medicaid, but generally is not currently available in Medicare. ii.
