Tribal Medicaid Administrative Claiming
Welcome to Tribal Medicaid Administrative Claiming (TMAC), where together we support effective and efficient administration of Medicaid and the Denali KidCare Programs. This includes provision of outreach and linkage activities to Alaska Natives and American Indians and non-Tribal members served by Tribes and Tribal Health Organizations in Alaska.
The goals and objectives of the TMAC are to:
- Strengthen the partnership between H&SS and participating federally recognized Tribes and Tribal organizations
- Share in the responsibility for promoting access to Medicaid and Denali KidCare (M-CHIP) for Alaska Natives and American Indians
- Reimburse the Tribes and Tribal Health Organizations for performing Medicaid and Denali KidCare outreach and linkage activities.
Included below are resources for Tribes and Tribal Health organizations currently contracted to participate in TMAC.
The rate for Tribal Medicaid Administrative Claiming for all providers for FFY24 (10/1/23 through 9/30/24) is
$16.84 per unduplicated recipient per quarter.
