Federal Unwinding Reports
The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid (CMS) requires states to submit two reports as part of the ending of the continuous coverage period:
Baseline Report
The first report is a
baseline report that is a point in time report on data on pending applications, renewals and fair hearings. This data is for the
entire Medicaid population and not just for the unwind population.

CMS Monthly Report
The second report is a monthly report that will contain data on pending and completed applications and renewals and pending fair hearings. This data is for the
entire Medicaid population and not just for the unwind population.
