Announcement

New Blog Series:

**Medicare and Medicaid Integration**

Health Affairs is launching a new blog series, Medicare and Medicaid
Integration, featuring policy analysis, proposals, and commentary that
will inform policies on the state and federal levels to advance
integrated care for those dually eligible for Medicare and Medicaid.

The series will include blog posts exploring the evidence base (and gaps
in our knowledge) and the range of views on various key issues-all
with the aim of enhancing the national conversation on this issue and
eliciting thoughtful responses from leaders in the public and private
sectors.

We are grateful to Arnold Ventures for
supporting this project.

We are accepting submissions of blog posts for the series. Submissions
will be reviewed on a rolling basis and considered for publication
through August 2022.
