As this paper notes, “Section 1115 of the Social Security Act (SSA) provides the Secretary of Health and Human Services with limited authority to waive requirements of the Medicaid Act.”
Since 1986, the Advocate's Guide to the Medicaid Program has been the leading authoritative reference on Medicaid law. Pre-order today to reserve your copy of the 5th edition. The Guide is available in both print and digital versions, which will be available this fall.
