I. PURPOSE
This Directive advises districts of procedures to claim federal
financial participation (FFP) for certain expenses associated with
Medical Assistance (MA) outreach as required under the Omnibus
Budget Reconciliation Act of 1990 (OBRA 90). FFP is available for
reimbursement of the cost of staff outstationed at disproportionate
share hospitals, Federally-Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs) or
other sites approved by the Department to accept MA applications
from households which include children born on or after October 1,
1983 and/or pregnant women.
