New York Medicaid Innovation
In early January, CMS approved a groundbreaking amendment to New York’s Medicaid 1115 Waiver, allowing the state to make large investments (approximately $6.8 billion in funding over the next three years) across a series of wide-ranging Medicaid initiatives that expand access to primary and behavioral health, address health-related social needs to reduce disparities and promote health equity, and strengthen the healthcare workforce.
This amendment presents significant opportunities for innovative digital health companies to engage and provide solutions, as well as for hospitals, IPAs, CBOs and others to build population health management infrastructure.
We hosted a panel experts in the sector who reviewed critical aspects of the amendment and highlighted how organizations can prepare for success.
