Summary
Michigan Medicaid extends COVID-19 vaccine administration reimbursement for FQHCs, RHCs, and Tribal Health Centers from May 12, 2023 through September 30, 2024. FQHCs and RHCs must actively agree to an Alternative Payment Methodology (APM) via written response to receive cost-based reimbursement for stand-alone vaccine administration services.
Action Required
Immediately: FQHCs, RHCs, and Tribal FQHCs must respond to MDHHS written communication via email to accept the Alternative Payment Methodology for COVID-19 vaccine administration. Billing teams should watch for MDHHS correspondence and ensure prompt email response confirming APM acceptance. Failure to respond will result in reimbursement under standard PPS methodology instead of cost-based rates.
