Attention ArSHA members:
Arizona state Medicaid program, AHCCCS, has proposed eliminating many covered tests and procedures for the adults covered by AHCCCS. One part of the proposed cuts include BAHA’s and cochlear implants. A study was commissioned by AHCCCS to analyze the cost of various procedures and the number of persons served or impacted by these procedures. This study concluded that the elimination of BAHA and CI’s from AHCCCS coverage would have NO impact.

Thank you,
ArSHA Executive Board
