42 U.S.C. § 1396o–1: State option for…

Summary

Allows a State to choose, by changing its Medicaid plan, to charge premiums and copays for groups of people or for types of services, with limits and some exceptions. People with family income at or below 100 percent of the poverty line cannot be put under these State-chosen premiums or new cost sharing rules. “Premium” means an enrollment fee or similar charge. “Cost sharing” means copays, deductibles, or similar charges. For people with family income between 100 and 150 percent of the poverty line, no premiums are allowed; any cost sharing for a single item can be no more than 10 percent of that item’s cost, and the family’s total cost sharing cannot exceed 5 percent of family income (measured monthly or quarterly as the State chooses). For people with income above 150 percent of the poverty line, the family’s total premiums plus cost sharing cannot exceed 5 percent of family income (monthly or quarterly), and any single-item cost sharing cannot exceed 20 percent of the item’s cost. Certain groups may never be charged premiums or cost sharing, including children entitled to Medicaid, pregnant women, people in hospice, inpatients who must spend nearly all income on care, some groups of women and disabled children covered under special rules, and American Indians getting services from Indian Health Service or tribal providers. States can exempt more people or services if they want. States may use higher or lower copays for prescription drugs to push people toward “preferred” drugs, subject to limits: for people at or below 150 percent of poverty, copays for non-preferred drugs cannot exceed the nominal amount; for people above 150 percent of poverty, they cannot exceed 20 percent of the drug’s cost; exempt groups face only nominal copays for non-preferred drugs. A doctor can override this if the preferred drug would not work or would cause harm. A State may require prepayment of a premium and may end Medicaid eligibility for failure to pay after at least 60 days, though the State can waive payment for hardship. Providers may require cost sharing at the time of service, but they may also reduce or waive it case-by-case. A State may let hospitals charge cost sharing for non-emergency care given in an emergency department only if a non-emergency provider is actually available and the hospital, after a medical screening shows no emergency, tells the patient about the cost, the alternate provider, and offers a referral. For people with income between 100 and 150 percent of poverty, that ER cost sharing cannot be more than twice the nominal amount and still must meet the 5 percent family cap; exempt groups may face only a nominal ER charge if an alternate outpatient option in the area is available without cost sharing. All cost sharing remains subject to the family aggregate caps. Family income is counted in the way the State sets, and the term “poverty line” means the official federal poverty line. The law lets States be stricter or seek waivers to change these limits. Some COVID-related items are also protected: certain in vitro diagnostic products administered on or after March 18, 2020, and COVID vaccines, testing, and treatments from March 11, 2021 through the last day of the first calendar quarter that begins one year after the end of the federal COVID-19 emergency period are exempt from cost sharing as described above.

(A)as preventing a State from further limiting the premiums and cost sharing imposed under this section beyond the limitations provided under this section;

(C)as affecting any such waiver of requirements in effect under this subchapter before February 8, 2006, with regard to the imposition of premiums and cost sharing.

(c)Special rules for cost sharing for prescription drugs

(1)In general

In order to encourage beneficiaries to use drugs (in this subsection referred to as “preferred drugs”) identified by the State as the most (or more) cost effective prescription drugs within a class of drugs (as defined by the State), with respect to one or more groups of beneficiaries specified by the State, subject to paragraph (2), the State may—

(A)provide cost sharing (instead of the level of cost sharing otherwise permitted under section 1396o of this title, but subject to paragraphs (2) and (3)) with respect to drugs that are not preferred drugs within a class; and

(B)waive or reduce the cost sharing otherwise applicable for preferred drugs within such class and shall not apply any such cost sharing for such preferred drugs for individuals for whom cost sharing may not be imposed under subsection (a) due to the application of subsection (b)(3)(B).

(2)Limitations

(A)By income group

In no case may the cost sharing under paragraph (1)(A) with respect to a non-preferred drug exceed—

(i)in the case of an individual whose family income does not exceed 150 percent of the poverty line applicable to a family of the size involved, the amount of nominal cost sharing (as otherwise determined under section 1396o of this title); or

(ii)in the case of an individual whose family income exceeds 150 percent of the poverty line applicable to a family of the size involved, 20 percent of the cost of the drug.

(B)Limitation to nominal for exempt populations

In the case of an individual who is not subject to cost sharing under subsection (a) due to the application of paragraph (1)(B), any cost sharing under paragraph (1)(A) with respect to a non-preferred drug may not exceed a nominal amount (as otherwise determined under section 1396o of this title).

(C)Continued application of aggregate cap

In addition to the limitations imposed under subparagraphs (A) and (B), any cost sharing under paragraph (1)(A) continues to be subject to the aggregate cap on cost sharing applied under subsection (a)(2)(B) or under paragraph (1) or (2) of subsection (b), as the case may be.

(3)Waiver

In carrying out paragraph (1), a State shall provide for the application of cost sharing levels applicable to a preferred drug in the case of a drug that is not a preferred drug if the prescribing physician determines that the preferred drug for treatment of the same condition either would not be as effective for the individual or would have adverse effects for the individual or both.

(4)Exclusion authority

Nothing in this subsection shall be construed as preventing a State from excluding specified drugs or classes of drugs from the application of paragraph (1).

(d)Enforceability of premiums and other cost sharing

(1)Premiums

Notwithstanding section 1396o(c)(3) of this title and section 1396a(a)(10)(B) of this title, a State may, at its option, condition the provision of medical assistance for an individual upon prepayment of a premium authorized to be imposed under this section, or may terminate eligibility for such medical assistance on the basis of failure to pay such a premium but shall not terminate eligibility of an individual for medical assistance under this subchapter on the basis of failure to pay any such premium until such failure continues for a period of not less than 60 days. A State may apply the previous sentence for some or all groups of beneficiaries as specified by the State and may waive payment of any such premium in any case where the State determines that requiring such payment would create an undue hardship.

(2)Cost sharing

Notwithstanding section 1396o(e) of this title or any other provision of law, a State may permit a provider participating under the State plan to require, as a condition for the provision of care, items, or services to an individual entitled to medical assistance under this subchapter for such care, items, or services, the payment of any cost sharing authorized to be imposed under this section with respect to such care, items, or services. Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed as preventing a provider from reducing or waiving the application of such cost sharing on a case-by-case basis.

(e)State option for permitting hospitals to impose cost sharing for non-emergency care furnished in an emergency department

(1)In general

Notwithstanding section 1396o of this title and section 1396a(a)(1) of this title or the previous provisions of this section, but subject to the limitations of paragraph (2), a State may, by amendment to its State plan under this subchapter, permit a hospital to impose cost sharing for non-emergency services furnished to an individual (within one or more groups of individuals specified by the State) in the hospital emergency department under this subsection if the following conditions are met:

(A)Access to non-emergency room provider

The individual has actually available and accessible (as such terms are applied by the Secretary under section 1396o(b)(3) of this title) an alternate non-emergency services provider with respect to such services.

(B)Notice

The hospital must inform the beneficiary after receiving an appropriate medical screening examination under section 1395dd of this title and after a determination has been made that the individual does not have an emergency medical condition, but before providing the non-emergency services, of the following:

(i)The hospital may require the payment of the State specified cost sharing before the service can be provided.

(ii)The name and location of an alternate non-emergency services provider (described in subparagraph (A)) that is actually available and accessible (as described in such subparagraph).

(iii)The fact that such alternate provider can provide the services without the imposition of cost sharing described in clause (i).

(iv)The hospital provides a referral to coordinate scheduling of this treatment.

Nothing in this subsection shall be construed as preventing a State from applying (or waiving) cost sharing otherwise permissible under this section to services described in clause (iii).

(2)Limitations

(A)Individuals with family income between 100 and 150 percent of the poverty line

In the case of an individual described in subsection (b)(1) who is not described in subparagraph (B), the cost sharing imposed under this subsection may not exceed twice the amount determined to be nominal under section 1396o of this title, subject to the percent of income limitation otherwise applicable under subsection (b)(1)(B)(ii).

(B)Application to exempt populations

In the case of an individual described in subsection (a)(2)(A) or who is not subject to cost sharing under subsection (b)(3)(B) with respect to non-emergency services described in paragraph (1), a State may impose cost sharing under paragraph (1) for care in an amount that does not exceed a nominal amount (as otherwise determined under section 1396o of this title) so long as no cost sharing is imposed to receive such care through an outpatient department or other alternative health care provider in the geographic area of the hospital emergency department involved.

(C)Continued application of aggregate cap; relation to other cost sharing

In addition to the limitations imposed under subparagraphs (A) and (B), any cost sharing under paragraph (1) is subject to the aggregate cap on cost sharing applied under subsection (a)(2)(B) or under paragraph (1) or (2) of subsection (b), as the case may be. Cost sharing imposed for services under this subsection shall be instead of any cost sharing that may be imposed for such services under subsection (a) or section 1396o of this title.

(3)Construction

Nothing in this section shall be construed—

(A)to limit a hospital’s obligations with respect to screening and stabilizing treatment of an emergency medical condition under section 1395dd of this title; or

(B)to modify any obligations under either State or Federal standards relating to the application of a prudent-layperson standard with respect to payment or coverage of emergency services by any managed care organization.

(4)Definitions

For purposes of this subsection: (A) Non-emergency services

(B)Alternate non-emergency services provider

The term “alternative non-emergency services provider” means, with respect to non-emergency services for the diagnosis or treatment of a condition, a health care provider, such as a physician’s office, health care clinic, community health center, hospital outpatient department, or similar health care provider, that can provide clinically appropriate services for the diagnosis or treatment of a condition contemporaneously with the provision of the non-emergency services that would be provided in an emergency department of a hospital for the diagnosis or treatment of a condition, and that is participating in the program under this subchapter.
