Description
Through the Vermont Global Commitment to Health Demonstration, the Department of Vermont Health Access (DVHA) operates as a public managed care entity. DVHA receives a monthly per member-per month (PMPM) payments from its parent agency (the Vermont Agency of Human Services), and is at risk for all services (other than long-term care services) required by covered populations. These PMPM payments form the basis for Vermont's claim of title XIX matching funds. All title XIX matching funds provided under Global Commitment to Health are subject to an eight and a quarter-year aggregate budget neutrality expenditure limit of $8.9 billion

Status
On December 23, 2010, a three year extension was approved for the Demonstration, starting January 1, 2011 through December 31, 2013. During the extension period, the State will receive Federal financial participation based on the actual cost of approved services and programs, rather than on the monthly per member-per month payments from DVHA to the Vermont Agency of Human Services, and will no longer be fully at risk for these services.
