As states increasingly look to risk-based managed care to serve the nearly 70 million Medicaid beneficiaries across the county, traditional measures of network adequacy do not take into account the many ways Medicaid Managed Care Organizations (MCOs) enhance network access through a variety of innovative strategies that promote quality and value instead of volume, according to a white paper developed by Anthem’s Public Policy Institute.
Today’s Medicaid networks that serve low-income children, families and adults, disabled individuals, and long-term care beneficiaries must address core barriers that have historically impeded access to care under Medicaid fee-for-service programs. Medicaid MCOs, working with their provider and state partners, can enhance network access for their members through strategies that minimize access barriers, embrace new technologies, and create incentives for providers to deliver cost-effective, patient-centered care. Anthem highlights several innovative strategies, counting:
- New ways of working with and paying providers to create incentives to promote team-based, population-focused care,
- Support for non-traditional providers, physician extenders, and patient access models, such as group visits or plan-operated health centers,
- Ensuring members get maximum value from providers empowered to work at the top of their license and training, and
- The use of technology to leverage provider access and expertise and improve convenience for members.
“Traditional measures of network adequacy – counting physician-to-enrollee ratios and time/distance requirements – are important, but they paint an incomplete picture of how Medicaid managed care plans, working with their provider and state partners, enhance network access and delivery of high-quality care for their members,” said Jennifer Kowalski, vice president of the Anthem Public Policy Institute. “We have found many examples across the country of MCOs implementing quality-focused strategies that improve access for the nation’s most vulnerable populations.”
The Anthem Public Policy Institute was established to share data and insights to inform public policy and shape the health care programs of the future. The Public Policy Institute strives to be an objective and credible contributor to health care innovation and transformation through publication of policy-relevant data analysis, timely research, and insights from Anthem’s innovative programs.
