Important Updates:

Beginning July 1 2025, late eligibility reviews will be treated as a new application. To be considered for backdated coverage, the member must answer “yes” to the question about prior medical expenses in the review. Click the link for more information: KanCare.ks.gov/ReconsiderationPolicy.

Effective October 14, 2025, Provider Electronic Solutions (PES) will no longer be supported by the Kansas Medical Assistance Program (KMAP). Users will submit EDI transactions through KMMS.

Policy Log

Font Size: + -

Feedback Print

The Policy Log is a new tool that provides a compilation of all Policy Memos, Directives and Clarifications in a single list. The document provides a summary of the content of each policy correspondence and users can link directly to the document from the Log. The Policy Log also serves as a record of all issued policy communication. Items on the Policy Log include a Reference number. The Reference number includes the following: Alpha characters (2-4 digits which indicate what type of policy it is), 4 digit year, 2 digit month, and 2 digits to represent the sequential order of the policy document released in that month. The sequential number assigned is specific to that type of policy document. For example, if both a Policy Memo and a Policy Directive are issued in July 2017, the policies will include: PM2017-07-01 and PD2017-07-01.
