MHPA has launched a new educational campaign — "A Look At The Numbers" — which highlights how managed care organizations are responding to COVID-19 and the many ways that managed care organizations help states and our national health system better deliver on the triple aim. With state budgets under pressure and the Medicaid population set to grow significantly, the delivery of cost-effective and quality health care for Medicaid enrollees will be absolutely critical now and over the long term.
We invite you to visit ALookAtTheNumbers.com and to stay tuned for more content to come on the site and MHPA's social channels.
