The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services April 10 announced that it does not intend to approve new or extend existing requests for federal funds to match state expenditures on designated state health and designated state investment programs. CMS said its aim is to end Medicaid spending that is duplicative of other federal funding sources or is not directly tied to health care services.
