Public Comment Period - Share Your Feedback!
The New York State Department of Health is seeking public feedback on its proposed Section 1115(a) Medicaid Redesign Team (MRT) demonstration extension, which will help guide Medicaid programs and services across the state for years to come. The State has opened a public comment period, which will remain open through August 21, 2026, providing stakeholders and community members with an opportunity to share feedback on the proposal. In-person and virtual public hearings will be held on Friday, July 31st and Tuesday, August 11th, respectively, and written comments can be submitted to 1115waivers@health.ny.gov.
Public input is essential to ensuring these programs reflect the needs of New Yorkers. We encourage stakeholders, providers, advocates, and community members to review the proposal, participate in the upcoming public hearings, and submit comments.
