The multi-year grant is awarded to states further along in building their Exchanges. The Level Two Grant funding will be used to develop the IT infrastructure, operations, education, and outreach activities to support the required functions of the District’s Exchange.

Effective October 1, 2012 through September 30, 2013, Medicaid-reimbursable emergency medical services will no longer be included in the Alliance benefit package. Claims for these services should be submitted directly to the Department of Health Care Finance.
