Action Memo

• It is important that the caseworkers do not attempt to transfer any active case from one office to another during 10/03/17 through 10/06/17.
• Updated contact information for the two offices that comprise the Medical Management Unit (MMU) 155 is provided.

To streamline the maintenance of medical only cases and more effectively manage the redeterminations once the contract with Maximus ends, a new office, the Medical Management Unit (MMU) Office 155, was created out of the Hunter and Broadway offices. The Hunter and Broadway offices and their respective staff did not move, but will work together under the office name of the Medical Management Unit (MMU), Office 155.
