8 Comprehensive Medicaid Waiver Renewal Update 15 WHAT IS AN 1115 WAIVER AND WHY DOES NEW JERSEY NEED TO SUBMIT A RENEWAL? The New Jersey 1115 Comprehensive Medicaid Waiver Demonstration is a Research and Demonstration waiver granted by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) under Section 1115(a) of the Social Security Act (SSA). Demonstrations under Section 1115 of the SSA give states flexibility to design and improve their programs using innovative ideas that are typically not allowed under Medicaid and CHIP rules. The Comprehensive Waiver gives NJ the authority to operate most of the NJ FamilyCare program, including: Mandatory Managed Care Managed Long Term Services and Supports (MLTSS) Supports Program Children s Home and Community Based Services (HCBS) Programs Delivery System Reform Incentive Payment (DSRIP) The Comprehensive Waiver expires on June 30,
