Sections 18, 20 & 65: July 1, 2025, Cost-of-Living Adjustments (COLAs) Implemented

Jul 10, 2025

Last week, we sent a notice stating that the implementation of the 1.95% COLA for several sections of policy was delayed.  

The following policy sections received the COLA update, and the rates are now available for billing. 

18	HCBS for Adults with Brain Injury
20	HCBS for Adults with Other Related Conditions
65	Behavioral Health Services

Providers may adjust all affected claims with dates of service from July 1, 2025, through July 8, 2025.  

Updated fee schedules are available on the rate setting page of the Health PAS Online Portal. 

For questions about the implementation of these rates, please contact your Provider Relations Specialist.
