About this opportunity
The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) is soliciting applications for the Transforming Maternal Health (TMaH) Model, a 10-year voluntary service delivery and payment model designed to improve maternal health care outcomes for Medicaid and CHIP beneficiaries. CMS will select up to 15 state Medicaid agencies (SMAs) to participate and will evaluate the model's impact on rates of low-risk cesarean sections, severe maternal morbidity, low birthweight infants, patient experience, and Medicaid/CHIP program expenditures. The Letter of Intent is due August 8, 2024, and the application is due September 20, 2024, with anticipated award issuance on January 13, 2025.
CMS will award up to $17 million in Cooperative Agreement funding to each of the selected SMAs over the 10-year period of performance, for a total investment of up to $255 million. The TMaH Model aims to improve maternal and child health outcomes while reducing Medicaid and CHIP program expenditures through reduced spending on high-cost procedures such as c-sections for low-risk beneficiaries.
Synopsis
The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), through its Center for Medicare and Medicaid Innovation, is soliciting applications for the Transforming Maternal Health (TMaH) Model. This is a voluntary, 10-year service delivery and payment model designed to improve maternal health care outcomes for people enrolled in Medicaid and the Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP).
The TMaH Model will test whether targeted technical (TA) assistance, coupled with payment and delivery system reforms, can drive a whole-person care-delivery approach to pregnancy, childbirth, and postpartum care while reducing Medicaid and CHIP program expenditures.
CMS will select up to 15 state Medicaid agencies (SMAs or Recipients) to participate in the TMaH Model. Up to $17 million dollars in Cooperative Agreement funding will be available to each selected Recipient over the course of the 10-year period of performance for a total of up to $255M investment.
CMS will evaluate the following: the TMaH Model's impact on rates of lower c-risk cesarean section (c-section), severe maternal morbidity (SMM), incidence of low birthweight infants, changes in experience of care for pregnant and birthing people, and changes in Medicaid and CHIP program expenditures. The TMaH Model aims to improve maternal and child health outcomes while reducing Medicaid and CHIP program expenditures for maternal care through reduced spending on high-cost procedures such as c-sections for low-risk beneficiaries.
