The Arizona Health Care Cost Containment System (AHCCCS) is requesting an amendment to the 1115 Research and Demonstration Waiver, Project Number 11-W-00275/9, to seek authority to extend eligibility for full Medicaid state plan benefits to Former Foster Youth (FFY) who are under age 26, who turned 18 on or before December 31, 2022, who were in foster care under the responsibility of another state or tribe on the date of attaining 18 years of age, were enrolled in Medicaid on the date of aging out of foster care, and are now applying for Medicaid in Arizona. AHCCCS currently offers transitional medical care for children leaving foster care that are between the ages 18 to 26.
