MassHealth - SMI-SED Supplemental Application In September 2017, Massachusetts submitted an amendment request seeking authority to receive federal financial participation for services provided in an Institute for Mental Disease (IMD) to Medicaid beneficiaries when the statewide average length of stay meets an expectation of 30 days or less. This request was put on hold pending CMS guidance released on November 13, 2018 in the State Medicaid Director Letter on "Opportunities to Design Innovative Service Delivery Systems for Adults with a Serious Mental Illness or Children with a Serious Emotional Disturbance" (SMDL# 18-011). Massachusetts has submitted supplemental information for its pending IMD request in accordance with SMDL# 18-011 and CMS is providing this information for public comment. The federal public comment period will be open from August 31, 2020 through September 30, 2020.
