We are
pleased to inform you that you can get help during these difficult times!
Distribution of funds to Medicaid providers will supply relief to our superheroes without capes.
Here's some information:
On 06/09/2020, the Department of Health and Human Services announced a start of funds release of around $15 billion to eligible Medicaid and Children's Health
Insurance Program (CHIP) providers. It means that providers who bill Medicaid
may receive money on a loan-free basis!
How much would I receive?
The exact payment will depend on providers' reports of their annual patient revenue and will be at least 2% of reported gross revenue from patient care. An enhanced Provider Relief Fund Payment Portal that will allow eligible Medicaid/CHIP providers to report the above information is now available.
