Medicaid Care Coordination Put Back on Hold
Wednesday, April 15th, 2015
The state has shelved its attempt to coordinate care of Medicaid beneficiaries who are elderly or disabled.
The Georgia Department of Community Health said Tuesday that it was not proceeding “at this time’’ with soliciting bids from potential vendors to operate the program.
The agency’s statement, made in an email to GHN, follows the General Assembly’s removal of $12 million in state funds, intended for the startup of the program, from the fiscal 2016 budget proposed by Gov. Nathan Deal.
