CMS has announced that it its review choice demonstration won't launch as planned in Illinois on Dec. 10.
 
That's because the demonstration has not yet received Office of Management and Budget approval, CMS said in a Dec. 10 post.
 
CMS notes that when approval is received, it will post "final, approved demonstration information, including a start date for home health agencies in Illinois and instructions on the choice selection process. CMS will provide notice on this website before phasing in the other demonstration states: Ohio, North Carolina, Florida, and Texas."
