This is to notify states and stakeholders that we will not be finalizing the Affordable Care Act Federal Upper Limits (FULs) in July 2014, as we previously announced in the Center for Medicaid and CHIP Services (CMCS) Informational Bulletin issued on November 27, 2013.
In the November 2013 Informational Bulletin, we stated that further detailed guidance would be provided for states to implement the Affordable Care Act FULs, and we remain committed to ensuring that this guidance is provided to states with sufficient time to implement the FULs. We expect to provide a new finalization date for the FULs when we release this subsequent guidance to states. We will continue to analyze the draft monthly Affordable Care Act FUL data, including the relationship of these FULs to the National Average Drug Acquisition Cost pricing, as we continue to work to implement the FUL provisions of section 1927(e)(4) of the Social Security Act. We will also continue to post the draft monthly Affordable Care Act FUL files on Medicaid.gov.
