ASB Adopts ASOP No. 49 on Medicaid

Category: ASB News

The ASB recently adopted ASOP No. 49, Medicaid Managed Care Capitation Rate Development and Certification. The ASOP was developed to establish guidance for actuaries preparing, reviewing, or giving advice on capitation rates for Medicaid programs, including those certified in accordance with 42 CFR 438.6(c). Since the federal regulations took effect, actuaries have used various methods to prepare the capitation rates. ASOP No. 49 incorporates the appropriate aspects of these methods to establish guidance and considerations in the rate development process. ASOP No. 49, which will be effective for opinions and certifications issued on or after August 1, 2015, can be viewed under the tab “Current Standards (ASOPs).”
