Medicaid and Managed Care: A Discussion of Current Events and Likely Changes Impacting HCH Providers and Consumers

Medicaid may be undergoing significant changes as a new Presidential administration and a new Congress debate alternatives to the Affordable Care Act. This will not only have consequences for the Medicaid expansion population, but potentially to all low-income populations in all states as changes to eligibility, funding, and participation requirements are considered. Likewise, the role of managed care will change accordingly. This workshop will discuss the most recent changes to Medicaid and the implications for managed care organizations and the Medicaid beneficiaries they serve.
