433.130—Waiver of conditions of initial operation and approval.

(a) CMS will waive requirements for initial operation and approval of systems under § 433.113 for a State meeting the requirements of paragraph (b) of this section and that had a 1976 population of less than one million and made total Federal and State Medicaid expenditures of less than $100 million in fiscal year 1976. Population figures are those reported by the Bureau of the Census. Expenditures for fiscal year 1976 are those reported by the State for that year.
(b) To be eligible for this waiver, the agency must submit its reasons to CMS in writing and demonstrate to CMS's satisfaction that a system will not significantly improve the efficiency of the administration of the State plan.
(c) If CMS denies the waiver request, the notice of denial will include—
(1) The findings of fact upon which the denial was made; and
(2) The procedures for appeal of the denial.
(d) If CMS determines, after granting a waiver, that a system would significantly improve the administration of the State Medicaid program, CMS may withdraw the waiver and require that a State obtain initial approval of a system within two years of the date of waiver withdrawal.
