On June 3, 2022, the State of Wisconsin submitted a section 1115 demonstration waiver application to expand postpartum Medicaid coverage for eligible members from sixty (60) days to ninety (90) days. This demonstration will allow for an additional month of coverage for pregnant and birthing people in Wisconsin whose household income is above 100% of the federal poverty level (FPL). The purpose of this demonstration is to improve postpartum morbidity and mortality among birthing people in the state by extending access to quality care. The federal comment period will be open from June 21, 2022 through July 21, 2022.
