Why Did They Do It That Way? Understanding Managed Care
In a recently published issue brief, the National Association of Medicaid Directors (NAMD) provides an overview of Medicaid managed care. This brief covers the basics of what Medicaid managed care is, how it has grown over time, and how states and territories make decisions around delivery systems. It also dives into the core components of operationalizing managed care, including procurement, rate setting, and oversight. NAMD also discusses how Medicaid managed care is continuing to evolve, looking ahead at the potential impacts of market dynamics and regulatory changes on the quality, accessibility, and cost of care for Medicaid members.
