Member Cost-Sharing. The Contractor shall adhere to State and Federal law, the State Plan and the requirements set forth in 42 CFR 447.50 through 447.57 when imposing any cost sharing charges on members. Federal regulations at 42 CFR 447.78 place aggregate limits on cost-sharing and prohibit total member cost-sharing per family from exceeding five percent (5%) of the family’s income, as determined by the State, in a monthly or quarterly period. To ensure a family’s total cost-sharing does not exceed five percent (5%) of the family’s income in a calendar quarter, the Contractor shall accept family income data from the State’s fiscal agent and track the copayments, premiums, member debt collected, and/or other cost-sharing information available to the Contractor against the total family income data provided by the State. Any service not specifically listed as a covered benefit in the applicable benefit plan may not be applied against the member’s five percent (5%) contribution calculation. The time period for tracking data shall be defined by the State. When a family’s total cost-sharing expenditures come close to exceeding five percent (5%) of the family’s income in the quarterly period, the Contractor shall coordinate with the State and shall notify providers and the family that additional cost sharing during the period is reduced or waived. In monitoring the quarterly 5% member cost-sharing limit, the Contractor shall comply with the policies and procedures set forth in this section, as well as the additional policies and procedures included in the Hoosier Care Connect MCE Policies and Procedures Manual.

As specified in Appendix A, Section 3.3 of the Three-Way, the MCOP may elect to implement co-payments for Medicaid-covered drugs but shall not charge cost sharing to members above levels established under the Medicare Part D Low Income Subsidy.

Member Cost-Sharing. As specified in OAC rules 5101:3-26-05(D) and 5101:3-26-12, MCPs are permitted to impose the applicable member co-payment amount(s) for dental services, vision services, non-emergency emergency department services, or prescription drugs, other than generic drugs. MCPs must notify ODJFS if they intend to impose a co-payment. ODJFS must approve the notice to be sent to the MCP’s members and the timing of when the co-payments will begin to be imposed. If ODJFS determines that an MCP’s decision to impose a particular co-payment on their members would constitute a significant change for those members, ODJFS may require the effective date of the co-payment to coincide with the “Annual Opportunity” month. Notwithstanding the preceding paragraph, MCPs must provide an ODJFS-approved notice to all their members 90 days in advance of the date that the MCP will impose the co-payment. With the exception of member co-payments the MCP has elected to implement in accordance with OAC rules 5101:3-26-05(D) and 5101:3-26-12, the MCP’s payment constitutes payment in full for any covered services and their subcontractors must not charge members or ODJFS any additional co-payment, cost sharing, down-payment, or similar charge, refundable or otherwise.

ODM shall approve the notice to be sent to the MCP’s members and the timing of when the co-payments will begin to be imposed. If ODM determines the MCP’s decision to impose a particular co-payment on their members would constitute a significant change for those members, ODM may require the effective date of the co-payment to coincide with the “Open Enrollment” month. Notwithstanding the preceding paragraph, the MCP shall provide an ODM-approved notice to all their members 90 calendar days in advance of the date that the MCP will impose the co- payment. With the exception of member co-payments the MCP has elected to implement in accordance with OAC rules 5160-26-05 and 5160-26-12, the MCP’s payment constitutes payment in full for any covered services and their subcontractors shall not charge members or ODM any additional co-payment, cost sharing, down-payment, or similar charge, refundable or otherwise.
