insurance coverage. In this matching
program, VHA provides CMS with data
when a state administering entity (AE)
requests it and VHA is authorized to
release it, verifying whether an
individual who is applying for or is
enrolled in private health insurance
coverage under a qualified health plan
through a federally-facilitated health
insurance exchange is eligible for
coverage under a VHA health plan. CMS
makes the data provided by VHA
available to the requesting AE through
a data services hub to use in
determining the applicant’s or enrollee’s
eligibility for financial assistance
(including an advance tax credit and
cost-sharing reduction, which are types
of insurance affordability programs) in
paying for private health insurance
coverage. VHA health plans provide
minimum essential coverage, and
eligibility for such plans usually
precludes eligibility for financial
assistance in paying for private
coverage. The data provided by VHA
under this matching program will be
used by CMS and AEs to authenticate
identity, determine eligibility for
financial assistance, and determine the
amount of the financial assistance.

ACTION:

and Families, Office of Refugee
Resettlement, announces the intent to
issue an OPDIV-Initiated Supplement to
BCFS Health and Human Services, San
Antonio, TX, in the amount of up to
$6,500,000. ORR has been identifying
additional capacity to provide shelter
for potential increases in apprehensions
of Unaccompanied Children at the U.S.
Southern Border. Planning for increased
shelter capacity is a prudent step to
ensure that ORR is able to meet its
responsibility, by law, to provide shelter
for Unaccompanied Alien Children
referred to its care by the Department of
Homeland Security (DHS). To ensure
sufficient capacity to provide shelter to
unaccompanied children referred to
HHS, BCFS proposed to the
continuation of services to ORR with
222 variance licensed beds.
DATES: Supplemental award funds will
support activities until January 31,
2019.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: ORR is
continuously monitoring its capacity to
shelter the unaccompanied children
referred to HHS, as well as the
information received from interagency
partners, to inform any future decisions
or actions.
ORR has specific requirements for the
provision of services. Award recipients
must have the infrastructure, licensing,
experience, and appropriate level of
trained staff to meet those requirements.
The continuation of services of the
existing program and its services
through this supplemental award is a
key strategy for ORR to continue to meet
its responsibility to provide shelter for
Unaccompanied Children referred to its
care by DHS and so that the U.S. Border
Patrol can continue its vital national
security mission to prevent illegal
migration, trafficking, and protect the
borders of the United States. The award
to BCFS will be made as two OPDIVinitiated supplements.
Statutory Authority: This program is
authorized by—

Security Act of 2002, which in March
2003, transferred responsibility for the
care and custody of Unaccompanied
Alien Children from the Commissioner
