National Scan of Medicaid Managed Care Practices for Individuals with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities
Article Publication Date
Summary
The National Association of State Directors of Developmental Disabilities Services (NASDDDS) has released a new environmental scan that outlines the evolving role of Medicaid managed care in supporting people with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD).
The national scan highlights how states are using managed care models to improve coordination, advance whole-person care, support stronger quality oversight, and better connect medical services with home and community-based supports. It also includes examples of state contract language and key policy considerations related to care coordination, person-centered planning, network adequacy, employment-first strategies, incident reporting, and quality expectations.
