HC Update - February 2018

Key Highlights This Month:  

  • All Forms 1095-B were mailed by January 25.  If changes were made to a person’s 2017 eligibility and coverage after early December 2017, the changes will show on a corrected Form 1095-B.  The batch for generating corrected forms is expected to start running in February and will run weekly through April, and then monthly thereafter.
  • A WebEx training has been scheduled for February 15 for Super User Access and Prospect Person Records
  • The Agency Performance Measurement Team at DHS is trying to develop some measures around healthcare (as directed by the Commissioner).  They are just at the beginning of the process and are currently soliciting some County feedback.
