Abstract: The Center for Medicaid, CHIP, and Survey & Certification in CMS works in partnership with States to implement Medicaid and the Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP), and the Social Security Act requires written plans between CMS and the State to implement these programs. The Affordable Care Act enacted comprehensive reform that requires modification of existing programs. In addition to the Medicaid and CHIP State plans, CMS also continues to work with States through other methods to further the goals of health reform, including program waivers and demonstrations and other technical assistance initiatives and reporting. This collection will provide streamlined submission forms for States to implement health reform initiatives in Medicaid and CHIP state plans, demonstrations, and waivers, including legislative requirements enacted by the Affordable Care Act.
