Identifying and Classifying Medicaid Home and Community-Based Services Claims in the Transformed Medicaid Statistical Information System, 2016-2020
Download
Home and community-based services (HCBS) are a range of medical and non-medical services provided in the home and community that support individuals with functional limitations, enabling them to reside in the community rather than in institutional settings. Analyzing use of HCBS at the national level by type of service can be challenging due to variation in Medicaid coverage, codes used on claims, and terminology across states. To support analysis of Medicaid-funded HCBS use, this brief describes a methodology for identifying and classifying HCBS claims reported to the Transformed Medicaid Statistical Information System (T-MSIS) by service category.
