A webcast covering the Medicaid and CHIP distribution of the Provider Relief Fund is scheduled for Wednesday, July 8, 2020 at 4 PM ET. You can pre-register for the webcast to reserve a spot.
On June 9, 2020, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services announced the distribution of approximately $15 billion from the Provider Relief Fund to eligible providers that participate in Medicaid and the Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP) and have not received a payment from the Provider Relief Fund General Distribution. The payment to each provider will be approximately 2 percent of reported gross revenue from patient care. Please find below important, additional information from the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) and AHCA/NCAL regarding the Provider Relief Fund Medicaid and CHIP Distribution.
