We provide states with a software designed to streamline contact by gathering phone numbers, organizing contact efforts & tracking progress. masterQueue powered by Intellaegis is helping State Medicaid eligibility workers to finish paperwork and answer questions so eligibility can be accurately determined. We are confident this is a more efficient strategy than one strategy mentioned in this article of "reaching families at back-to-school events". #masterQueue #efficiency #automation #aggregation #analytics #medicaid #medicaidredetermination #makecontactsimple #findanyone https://lnkd.in/g_YUnJD2

Great News for those in the state of California 🥳🎉🎊 California has extended Medicaid coverage to all eligible, undocumented individuals. This means that more people will now have access to healthcare services. #USHealthcareSystem #medicaid #Coverageexpansion #CaliforniaHealthcare"" Starting January 1, 2024, California 🌴 will offer Medicaid coverage to all eligible undocumented individuals 🤝💉, according to Cal Matters on December 28 🗓️. California's Medicaid program, known as Medi-Cal, started offering health coverage to undocumented children in 2015 🧒🏽👦🏻 and to individuals over 50 in 2022 🧑🏻🦳. The latest expansion of coverage will now include people between the ages of 26 to 49, benefiting an additional 700,000 individuals 🆕💯. However, it is important to note that approximately 500,000 undocumented immigrants in the state will not be eligible for coverage due to their income being too high to qualify 🤔💰. The California legislature previously committed more than $4 billion to the Medi-Cal expansion annually. 💰💸💉

Advising health care organizations dedicated to better outcomes and more affordable, equitable systems for financing and providing care
I appreciate all the great work from MACPAC - Medicaid and CHIP Payment and Access Commission to shed light on the role of #Medicaid supplemental payments, which facilities receive them, and how states (and the providers) finance them. The Texas example from the report is helpful, and the "you've seen one state, you've seen one state" cliche is true. However, tens, and perhaps hundreds, of billions of Medicaid dollars are moving through these mechanisms annually and go overwhelmingly to #hospitals. Any "burden" associated with better reporting of this data must be considered in the context of the size of the dollars at stake. In addition, public transparency will help with compliance. CMS is clearly overwhelmed and understaffed to perfom oversight of these payments, and transparency can help keep all the players honest. To hear that CMS often just looks one time at some of these recurring payments is a bit alarming. Joshua Gordon https://lnkd.in/ex3AF_Ez

Advantage for those Advantaged Means Disadvantage for Those Behind It bothers me enormously to hear about "the crisis of primary care or rural shortages of workforce." When our nation has always half enough primary care for 40% of the nation. This is not a crisis. It is chronic abuse by design. Medicare and Medicaid were created to facilitate health care delivery to older and poorer populations, but where the elderly, poor, and worst employers are concentrated there will never be a resolution of deficits, access barriers, most team members, and best team members. Even worse, the shortages that continue forever will forever allow more new pundits to push their solution as these "crises" are trotted out to push some new training intervention such as a new school or program or type of workforce as well as some new innovation in practice redesign. The health care designs are exactly wrong where 40% of the population has always had half enough basic health access workforce and little else due to the financial design. Lines of revenue fewest and lowest payments go with DRG and RBRVS Cost cutting hits populations most behind hardest, as they are weakest CMS fails to account for Medicaid dollars received as well as paid by states States have been known to abuse providers to have more matching funds CMS fails to account for the worst Medicare and other public plans that harm patients, providers, and vast regions of the nation via insufficient funding and poor support of those who deliver the care CMS votes 1.4 trillion dollars a year against basic health access (RBRVS) and against 40% of Americans lowest in health care workforce (DRG, RBRVS, lower payments as practices get smaller and as concentrations of workforce decline. There is plenty of money to increase spending from 250 billion to 350 billion for sufficient primary care and to increase mental health, womens health, geriatrics, and basic surgical by about 40 - 80 billion each to reach full support of the professionals and team members needed, but this is denied by design and the additional micromanagement costs and costs of turnover and costs to run small and medium size practices for 41 years have increased the revenue requirements. These deficits have remained for rural, minority, and underserved locations. Providers have been taught to avoid CMS patients due to payments too low. Federal shortage areas have had to be created because of Medicaid payments too low. Patches such as Critical Access Hospitals have had to be instituted because of DRG and payments too low. Patients with certain diagnoses have died because of DRG miscalculations and days of stay too short. Thanks for getting financial priorities straight

Changes to #Medicaid policy can be difficult to keep track of, especially when the timeline of changes can extend years into the future. To assist policymakers, researchers, and other stakeholders, The National Association of Medicaid Directors has created an amazing visual resource that highlights and tracks what they consider to be major changes coming to Medicaid between now and 2030. Alongside clear visual timelines of changes, this resource also breaks down changes and adjustments by year with detailed explanations of the exact new requirements, deadlines for implementation, and links to any correlated statutes, rulings, or legislation. Explore the resource yourself, and check back for any updates, at the link below: https://lnkd.in/gnJHTFkh #MedicaidResource #MedicaidProgram #NAMD #NationalAssociationofMedicaidDirectors #MedicaidChanges #MedicaidPolicy #HealthPolicy #HealthPolicyTool #MedicaidTool #PolicyTracking
