Mississippi Medicaid
Apparently Missisppi is having some major issues with thier Medicaid program.

Medicaid the only means of paying for medical services for a lot of people, and the problems that Mississippi is having right now is putting a lot of people out in the cold. Here is a little info that I just came across on the issue.
Quote:
Welcome to the ACS EDI Gateway's Home Page for Mississippi Medicaid!

The Mississippi Remittance Vouchers are currently unavailable.

TO: All Medicaid Providers
This is to officially inform you that the Division of Medicaid current financial status dictates that we will run out of money to pay for Medicaid provider claims by Monday, February 28, 2005 barring any legislative action.

Please continue to provide your valuable services to our beneficiaries throughout the entire month of February. We estimate that we have the means for reimbursement until February 28.

Your cooperation in this vital matter and your compassion for our beneficiaries is especially appreciated during this crisis.

Sincerely,
Warren A. Jones, M.D.,
Executive Director

Southaven, MS - Mississippi Medicaid sent word it would stop paying medicaid claims Feburary 28th. Then it apparently changed to this Friday. At the moment nobody seems to know what's going on.
