KanCare 1115 Waiver Public Meeting Recordings and Resources

On December 28. 2022, the Kansas Department of Health and Environment (KDHE) submitted a renewal of the State's 1115 Waiver, the federal authority of KanCare. The renewal is a "skinny" version of the 1115 waiver and the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) has determined the application to be complete. More information about this change can be found in the documents below, but it is important to know that this renewal and other applications on the future authority of KanCare will not change the benefits and services KanCare enrollees receive.
