MHPA, in partnership with the National MLTSS Health Plan Association, has released a new issue brief: "From Policy to Practice: Medicaid MCOs are Taking Action to Safeguard Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS)." This brief details the essential role Medicaid managed care organizations (MCOs) play in combating fraud, waste, and abuse (FWA) and preserving access to high-quality, person-centered care within HCBS delivery .

The issue brief outlines key strategies employed by MCOs to protect program integrity, including comprehensive care management, provider screening, and Electronic Visit Verification (EVV) monitoring. With 8.4 million individuals relying on HCBS, and future demand expected to rise, the safeguarding of these services is critical. This release details MHPA and the MLTSS Association's commitment to maintaining the integrity of these essential services.

As state and federal policymakers navigate complex fiscal environments, the shared goal remains the same: delivering high-quality, cost-effective care while ensuring the long-term sustainability of the Medicaid program.

MHPA’s newest data brief demonstrates that states are increasingly turning to managed care organizations (MCOs) as a proven solution to achieve this balance. Today, over 75% of all Medicaid enrollees receive their care through an MCO.

MCOs offer states essential tools to govern effectively:

🔹 Fiscal Accountability & Program Integrity: MCOs provide vital cost predictability by bearing financial risk. They utilize advanced data analytics, auditing protocols, and dedicated teams to rigorously prevent fraud, waste, and abuse.

🔹 Reducing Care Fragmentation: MCOs actively improve access by integrating preventive care, behavioral health, and non-emergency medical transportation into personalized care plans.

🔹 High Satisfaction: Enrollees report highly positive experiences, with 86% of adults and 91% of caretakers rating their Medicaid MCO positively.
