E. Approve Addendum to MSBA Medicaid Consortium Agreement
The recommended Addendum to MSBA Medicaid Consortium Agreement was presented. We are missing out on Medicaid Reimbursement for health related services with our students. We are able to submit claims for our IEP students who are Medicaid eligible at the time the service is provided by our district. This service provided by MSBA will serve as a revenue enhancer. We are already utilizing MSBA’s indirect claiming. If this item is given approval it will put our claiming under one umbrella program.
