Medicaid Disenrollment Data & School-Based Service Plans
To the Public Records Officer:
Pursuant to the Ohio Public Records Act, R.C. § 149.43, I hereby request copies of the following public records and aggregated data sets maintained by your agency:

1. Aggregated statistical data from January 1, 2025, through the date of this request, detailing the total number of individuals under the age of 19 who were disenrolled from Ohio Medicaid coverage (including standard Medicaid, OhioRISE, and HCBS waivers such as the Ohio Individualized Options, Level One, or Children with Intensive Behavioral Needs waivers) who also held an active Individualized Education Program (IEP) at the time of disenrollment. Please stratify this data by county and by primary disability category if available.
2. All communications, memoranda, directives, and policy guidance exchanged between the leadership of the Ohio Department of Medicaid and the Ohio Department of Education and Workforce from June 1, 2025, through the date of this request, regarding the implementation, rollout, and projected cost-shifting impacts of the "School Services Plan of Care" form and billing guidance implemented on January 1, 2026.
3. All internal reports, impact statements, or fiscal analyses generated by or for your agency evaluating the capacity of Ohio public school districts to fulfill medically necessary behavioral, physical, or occupational therapies for children who lost community-based Medicaid eligibility during the 2025–2026 state budget adjustments.
   Please provide these records in an electronic format (such as CSV or PDF) within a reasonable period of time. If any portion of this request is redacted or denied, please provide the specific statutory exemption and legal justification for each omission as required by R.C. 149.43(B)(3).
   Sincerely,
