Posted: 12/08/2025

The Michigan Department of Health and Human Services (MDHHS) issued communications today, informing all Medicaid Providers that the United States Department of Health and Human Services (USDHHS), including the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), is currently prohibited by a preliminary injunction from sharing Michigan’s Medicaid data with the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) for immigration enforcement purposes.
