The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid (CMS) provides updates to Medicaid agencies when there will be delays in the processing of the MMA Response File. The best way to ensure your Medicaid agency is receiving the state/territory file suspension notices is to ensure that the appropriate staff has a state/territory user role in the CMS Identity Management System (IDM) with a current email address.
To add a state/territory user role in IDM, refer to the instructions in the Identity Management User Guide, Section 4 [“How to create a new user account"] through Section 6 [“How to Request a Role”].
If you experience any issues with the above instructions, please contact the MAPD Help Desk at 1-800-927-8069.
The attached image provides an example of what your Medicaid agency can expect to see in the State/Territory File Processing Suspension notification emails.

The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid (CMS) provides multiple notifications to ensure your Medicaid agency is kept up to date on the status of your MMA file submissions.
CMS sends notifications like the one attached to your Medicaid agency each time an MMA Request file is submitted. These notifications provide important information regarding the status of the submitted request file.
If you are not receiving these notifications, please open a ticket with the MAPD Help Desk at 1-800-927-8069. In that ticket, please include:
We strongly suggest the Medicaid agency consider creating a shared email address mailbox versus individual staff emails (e.g., MMAteam-recipient@statename.gov) to receive the notifications.
The attached image is an example of what your Medicaid agency can expect to see in the notification emails.
