The Department has received approval from the Health Care Financing Administration (HCFA) to implement certain district transportation initiatives. This approval provides for a waiver of the Social Security Act as it relates to the Medicaid provisions of statewideness, comparability of services, and recipient's freedom of choice of providers.
The purpose of this waiver program is to offer local social service districts alternative methods of arranging for the transportation of recipients to necessary medical care and services, methods which will result in the most efficient and cost effective management of Medical Assistance transportation services.
