On January 29, 2026, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) announced that ten technology companies with existing state Medicaid eligibility and enrollment system contracts have pledged more than $600 million in no-cost or reduced-cost services to help states make the IT updates required under HR1's community engagement provisions. Participating companies include Accenture, Acentra Health, Conduent, GDIT, Deloitte, Gainwell, Maximus, Curam by Merative, Optum, and RedMane.
CMS is taking additional steps to support states in procuring additional IT solutions to support outreach, community-based referral coordination, and data sharing by partnering with the federal General Services Administration to limit barriers that have historically slowed state procurement and contracting.
More information on how CMS and private industry are supporting states is available in the CMS press release.
