INTRODUCTION
State users will use the Health Plan Management System (HPMS) of the Centers for Medicare
& Medicaid Services (CMS) to submit their attestations for State Pharmaceutical Assistance
Programs (SPAPs) and AIDS Drug Assistance Programs (ADAPs). The SPAP/ADAP module in
the HPMS enables users to manage program attestation data; upload supporting documents as
needed; certify and attest to the conditions of the program; review, update, and electronically
sign the attestation; and view reports.
NOTE: For initial SPAP/ADAP attestation submissions, only state users who have been
assigned the HPMS access to electronically sign and submit attestations may submit the
attestations.
