The DC Medicaid Advisory Committee (MAC) is a forum for key participants and stakeholders in the Medicaid program, including consumers, advocates, providers and DC officials, to review the program's operations and offer advice for improvements directly to the Department of Health Care Finance (DHCF). Previously referred to as the Medical Care Advisory Committee (MCAC), the name and bylaws were updated in February 2026 to better reflect the committee’s scope and meet the requirements of CMS’ Ensuring Access to Medicaid Services Final Rule (CMS-2442-F).
DHCF convenes a Beneficiary Advisory Council (BAC) alongside the MAC to obtain insights from individuals with lived experience in the Medicaid program and guide broader MAC discussions. The MAC is also supported by several subcommittees that serve as dedicated forums to inform policy development and program design within specific focus areas:
The current MAC members, bylaws, and details about past and upcoming meetings are available below. For questions about the MAC or to be added to the MAC meeting invitations, please contact [email protected].
Application for FY 2027 MAC is now closed.
DHCF is currently reviewing all submitted applications. Notifications regarding selection decisions will be sent once the review process is completed, expected in September 2026. Thank you to everyone who applied and for your interest in serving on the MAC.
