The Centers for Medicare \& Medicaid Services (CMS) approved the renewal of the Healthy Michigan Plan (HMP) Section 1115 Demonstration Waiver on December 21, 2018, for the period January 1, 2019-December 31, 2023. This waiver provides approval for the state to require Medicaid expansion beneficiaries ages 19-62 to complete and report 80 hours per month of community engagement as a condition of eligibility, among other waiver provisions, beginning January 1, 2020. Community engagement activities include employment, education, job training, job search activities, participation in substance use disorder (SUD) treatment, or community service. The State of Michigan will implement a randomized controlled trial (RCT) to evaluate the impact of community engagement requirements on Medicaid enrollment, health insurance coverage, self-reported health status, access to and utilization of health services, earnings, and employment, compared to a control group of HMP enrollees exempted from the community engagement requirement for purposes of the evaluation.
