The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services has issued the 2021 Navigator Notice of Funding Opportunity, which will make $80 million in grant funding available to Navigators in states with a federally facilitated marketplace for the 2022 plan year. According to CMS, it’s the largest funding allocation the agency has made available for navigator grants to date.
CMS Administrator Chiquita Brooks-LaSure said the funding was an eightfold increase.
