In January, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) issued a final regulation for CY 2022 Medicare and Medicaid Programs, which covers a variety of policies in these programs. One noteworthy item is a finalized amendment to 42 CFR § 422.220, which will allow Medicare Advantage (MA) supplemental benefits to reimburse providers that have opted out of Medicare.

This could mean that those dentists who responded to 2016-17 requirements (which were rescinded in 2018) to enroll in Medicare by opting out can participate in MA dental supplemental benefit networks.

The final regulation is available online here.  

For more information, contact Sr. Government Relations Analyst Owen Urech.
