December 12 2025 EXTENSION- Use of Michigan Medicaid Data for Immigration Enforcement Purposes

December 12, 2025: Attention All Providers: The purpose of this communication is to inform 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, that has been extended through January 5, 2026, from sharing Michigan’s Medicaid data with the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), for immigration enforcement purposes. Michigan Department of Health and Human Services (MDHHS) has become aware that some Medicaid providers have raised questions and concerns about the recent notices and actions of USDHHS, CMS, and DHS related to beneficiary-level State Medicaid data being shared with DHS’ Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). 


MDHHS will provide further notice if there are changes to what is considered permissible use, disclosure, or sharing of Michigan’s Medicaid data by USDHHS or CMS because of any future court actions.
