WHAT YOU WILL LEARN


The all-new 2025 program promises to go beyond policy to explore the specific strategies that leading Medicaid organizations are leveraging to meet members where they are, addressing coverage barriers and care gaps, especially for high-risk, high-cost beneficiaries. This forward- thinking event will focus on these key areas:

  • The Medicaid 2025 Landscape—The impact of the election on Medicaid, managing the uncertainty of post-unwinding enrollment issues, streamlining eligibility redeterminations, addressing pharmacy issues in Medicaid, and prioritizing investments in behavioral health, maternal health, and LTC
  • Addressing Social Needs through Medicaid—Screening for SDoH, mitigating the negative health impacts of unmet HRSN, developing a community-based social service network and partnering with CBO’s, and addressing unsheltered homelessness
  • Driving Whole Person Care Design and Delivery—driving improved access to equitable maternal care, integrating CHW’s into healthcare teams, developing a D-SNP model of care, meeting minimum nurse staffing standards in LTC facilities and facilitating transitions from incarceration into the community
  • Leveraging Digital Tools to Drive Patient-Centered Care—using telehealth and other technologies to improve access and shift care from the hospital to the home/community, collecting patient data and developing targeted interventions to address patient needs, implementing the electronic exchange of healthcare data and streamlining prior authorization processes
  • Operationalizing Health Equity Efforts in Medicaid—identifying barriers and reducing racial and ethnic disparities, closing gaps to accessing essential services and benefits, advancing health equity through Value Based Care models, and expanding care to individuals experiencing housing and food insecurity
  • Building Out the Behavioral Health Continuum of Care--Integrating behavioral and physical care, bolstering the behavioral health workforce, improving mobile crisis services, addressing gaps in youth behavioral services, and improving access to equitable quality care
  • Supplementing and Expanding SUD Services—leveraging peers and counselors to address unmet social needs and reduce hospitalizations, and ensuring access to recovery tools during and after incarceration
