Today, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) announced the release of the NOFO application for the Transforming Maternal Health (TMaH) Model.
The TMaH Model’s primary focus is improving health outcomes for mothers and their infants who are enrolled in Medicaid and Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP). Under TMaH, selected state Medicaid agencies will receive targeted technical support with a goal of developing a whole-person approach to pregnancy, childbirth, and postpartum care.
The TMaH Model will foster an environment where mothers and their infants feel safe and supported throughout their pregnancy and postpartum. TMaH supports states to provide mothers and their infants with access to care and resources to meet their physical health, mental health, and social needs.
CMS will issue Cooperative Agreements to up to 15 state Medicaid agencies. Applications for all interested states are due September 20, 2024.
Resources to support states in developing their applications are available on the TMaH Model Webpage, including:
