Attached is the update to the Enhanced Medicaid and Pregnancy Related Transportation information in the Administrative Procedure Manual (APM) - chapter 5000 and chapter 6000 . The changes reflected in this update are effective September 1, 2000.
ODJFS made the attached changes in response to questions raised by the county departments of job and family services (CDJFS) and in response to adjudication by the courts resulting from a lawsuit. The changes in the APM are designed to meet compliance with the court adjudication, enhance and simplify the data collection and reporting requirements of the county departments of job and family services, and to provide an enhanced medicaid transportation policy congruent with the current Ohio Administrative Code.
