Author: Owens, MK
This resource kit, modeled on the National Conference of State Legislature’s "Managing Medicaid Costs: A Legislator's Toolkit," is designed to help states better identify the needs of their populations and to develop patient-focused cost management interventions while maintaining quality care. Sixteen specific strategies are addressed, providing the pros and cons, states' experiences, design and policy issues, and Federal and State involvement/constraints.
