required for ‘‘1115’’ or ‘‘1915’’ (c)
waivers.
This study involves drawing a sample
from Medicaid beneficiaries in New
Jersey who are eligible to enroll in the
state’s Cash and Counseling program.
The qualifications for enrollment have
not changed since the original research.
This study will include only individuals
who did not enroll (non-participants)
who will be compared to those who did
enroll (and about whom data were
collected) during the original
demonstration/evaluation data
collection as well as those who have
enrolled since (about whom the state of
New Jersey collects descriptive data for
Medicaid program administrative
purposes). The government will conduct
600 one-time telephone interviews over
a three-month period. The survey
includes questions asked in the original
evaluation of the Cash and Counseling
demonstration surveys, as well as
original questions designed to measure
factors related to nonparticipation.
These questions will allow comparisons
between participants and nonparticipants of the Cash and Counseling
demonstration.
Proposed Project: Evaluation of the
Cash and Counseling Demonstration—
OMB No. 0990–0223—Reinstatement
with Changes—Assistant Secretary of
Planning and Evaluation (ASPE).
Abstract: The original evaluation of
the national Cash and Counseling
Demonstration was intended to include
three groups: self-directing consumers, a
control group, and non-participants.
When funding was not available to
survey all groups, the non-participant
sample was removed. The subsequent
evaluations showed that self-directing
consumers were more satisfied with
their supportive services, reported fewer
unmet needs, and enjoyed greater wellbeing than other Medicaid programs.
Still, despite these apparent benefits,
relatively few of the beneficiaries who
were eligible to participate in Cash and
Counseling demonstrations elected to
do so (8 to 15 percent). Since that time,
the Cash and Counseling program has
been expanded under the 1915(j)(2)
Section of the Deficit Reduction Act of
2005 and beginning January 1, 2007,
states were permitted to offer the
program to Medicaid recipients without
demonstrating budget neutrality and
without a requirement for periodic
renewal of the state plan amendment as
