CMS delays implementation of the Medicaid RAC program

The Centers for Medicare and Medicare Services (CMS) has delayed the deadline for states to implement their Medicaid recovery audit contractor (RAC) programs until an unspecified time later this year. The CMS bulletin said that the agency was doing so “out of consideration for state operational issues and to ensure states comply with the provisions of the final rule,” which has yet to be published. The original implementation date was April 1. CMS says when the final rule is published, it will include a new implementation deadline.
