Over the past two years, Health Affairs, in partnership with Arnold Ventures, has published a series of Forefront articles addressing the subject of Medicare and Medicaid integration.
A key theme of the series has been the challenges that dual-eligible individuals face around the lack of coordination and alignment between Medicare and Medicaid.
Topics have included engaging dual eligible individuals in the design of integrated care programs,
overcoming hurdles to obtaining durable medical equipment, and improving care for dually eligible individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities.
On Thursday, October 19, we will host an online event to explore these and other
issues in more detail. We’ll hear from a variety of perspectives, and the discussion will focus on key challenges encountered by the dually eligible population, as well as potential solutions.
Speakers will include:
Kelli Emans, Senior Strategic Integration Advisor, Department of Social and Health Care Services, Aging and Long-Term Support Administration, Washington State
Date: Thursday, October 19, 2023 Time: 2:00 p.m. – 3:30 p.m. Eastern Place: Online details will be shared with registrants 24 hours in advance of the event
