New Solutions!
Welcome to LeadingAge New York Services Solution's monthly e-newsletter, Solutions.

Published on the third Thursday of each month, Solutions provides highlights about valuable products and services addressing current and pressing issues facing members. Whether financial, clinical, marketing, HR, insurance, sanitation or other problems, you will find solutions to your challenges. You may even find discounts, helpful hints and tips, educational information and even special event notifications. Save yourself time by using this handy one-stop option to find answers or ideas.

Solutions is meant to be a resource for you to solve identified problems and to stimulate strategic thinking about what is possible in a work environment severely impacted by the worldwide pandemic. Your feedback and suggestions will be as important as the content provided. What solutions are you seeking? What questions are on the table as you seek to find the way forward from this pandemic? Let us find the resources and share so that all members can take advantage of questions and answers.

Solutions will be sent to your inbox but will also be posted on the LeadingAge New York website, Facebook and Twitter to make access a breeze. Whenever you need an answer, you will be able to find ideas. Let Solutions do some of the work!

If you don’t want Solutions delivered directly to your inbox, you can easily unsubscribe by clicking the link at the bottom of the newsletter and access it at your own time and in your own space. However, as this publication grows, we really think you will find value in the resources compiled for you in one handy location.

Also don't forget about the Solutions Center. This valuable tool is a full Online Buyers Guide of businesses by topic who do business with providers of long term care, housing and services for aging and other special needs populations. Click here to learn more!

Remember to let us know what else you would find valuable to include in this newsletter.

Enjoy!

New Law Calls For All Medicaid Recipients to Recertify Beginning April 2023 

Since the onset of the Public Health Emergency created by the COVID-19 pandemic, federal law has required each state to maintain Medicaid eligibility for its Medicaid recipients in exchange for receiving billions of dollars in Medicaid funding, commonly referred to as the continuous coverage requirement. Under the Families First Coronavirus Response Act (FFCRA), Medicaid recipients could not lose their coverage or have their spend-down increased after March 18, 2020 through the end of the Public Health Emergency, unless the recipient died, moved out of state, or voluntarily closed their case. As the Public Health Emergency has been repeatedly extended, these restrictions have remained in full force and effect for just under three (3) years.
