Building Capacity for Transformation:
New Hampshire DSRIP Waiver Program

What's New

The State of New Hampshire Department of Health and Human Services, as the single state Medicaid agency, is seeking to amend the 1115(a) Building Capacity for Transformation: Delivery System Reform Incentive Payment (DSRIP) Demonstration Waiver.

The amendment will enable the Department to explore potential short term extension of select designated state health programs (DSHPs); and to substitute two (2) DSHPs - Peer Support Services and Mobile Crisis Team/Apartments Program - for the Governor’s Commission on Drug & Alcohol Abuse, Prevention and Treatment and Recovery.

In addition, the purpose of the amendment to the waiver is to maintain the required financing levels and explore potential short term extension of select DSHPs.

The Department will review the NH DSRIP Annual Report DY1 2017 and Waiver Amendment at the Medical Care Advisory Committee Meeting on Monday, April 9, 2018, from 10:00 am - 12:00 pm. All meetings are open to the public:

NH DSRIP Waiver Program

By providing funding to support delivery system transformation—rather than to cover the costs of specific services rendered by providers—the waiver will enable health care providers and community partners within a region to form relationships focused on transforming care. This funding will also provide prompt resources for combating the opioid crisis and strengthening the state's strained mental health delivery system.
