TALLAHASSEE, Fla. – Florida’s Agency for Health Care Administration will grant one-time payments to providers of home and community-based services including DME, calculated as a 19% increase based on Medicaid managed care claims paid from July 1, 2020, through June 30, 2021. The relief is possible thanks to the funding provided by the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA), which went into effect April 1, 2021. The payments do not require any application or reporting from eligible suppliers. ACHA said that “payments have been disbursed to the plans and the plans will then have 30 days to make disbursements to eligible providers.”
