In North Carolina, the
NC Innovations Waiver and the
NC MH/DD/SAS Waiver – also called the 1915(b)(c) Waivers – provide Medicaid coverage to support people with mental health diagnoses, intellectual or developmental disabilities, and substance use disorders.
The
NC Department of Health and Human Services (NC DHHS) is renewing these waivers with the
Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS). The anticipated effective date is April 1, 2019.
Some portions of the waivers may be revised to clarify or modify services. Cardinal Innovations is committed to providing information to members, families, providers and stakeholders as it becomes available.
