Dear Esteemed Colleague,
As health care reform transforms the industry, new obstacles continue to
arise for government health programs. At the 8th Annual Leadership
Summit on Medicaid Managed Care, hear from health plans, managed care
organizations, and states on how they are adapting to expansion and new
care standards and altering strategies to overcome developing challenges.
Hear presentations, participate in panel discussions, and join hands-on
workshops covering important topics in Medicaid managed care, including:
•	 The impact of Medicaid expansion on both state programs and
managed care plans
•	 Long-term care and the transition to a community-based setting
•	 Integrating dual eligibles into managed care to improve care and
lower costs
•	 Accountable care organizations in Medicaid managed care
Don’t miss the opportunity to network with peers and thought leaders while
learning effective strategies to improve quality of care and control costs in
an expanding managed care environment.
I look forward to meeting you in February.  
Sincerely,
Terry Cunningham

delivered adequately.

Determinants of Health
Social, behavioral, and economic factors play a significant role in the health of the individual, but these non-clinical factors are often not adequately

DAY two — Wednesday, February 25, 2015 (continued)
11:30 am –
12:15 pm Improve Medication Use for the Medicaid Population through Predictive Analytics
The improper use of prescription medications, including non-adherence, is more than a $300B annual cost in the U.S.  The ACA introduced bonus
incentives from CMS to help improved adherence for Medicare patients, but did little to improve adherence for Medicaid populations.  This often
undertreated and mismanaged population is the most expensive to care for, and it is no surprise that organizations have historically focused on
reducing medical costs instead of focusing on improving use of prescription medications.  RxAnte’s unique predictive analytics and decision support
platform has proven to be successful at helping plans improve medication adherence in the Medicare population.  In this session, we will discuss how
payers can incur medical cost savings by properly identifying, prioritizing, and targeting patients for clinical interventions and provider outreaches in the
Medicaid population.
•	 Understand how predictive analytics has helped drive improved adherence and quality ratings in Medicare Advantage and Dual Eligible Populations
•	 Explore the importance of provider engagement in driving patient behavior change
•	 Discuss the changing Medicaid environment and evolving quality measures and improvement incentives
•	 Gain insight into the financial value and importance of adherence, including examples of disease states in which non-adherence contributes directly to medical costs

•	 Discuss the structure of a Medicaid plan ACO
•	 Explore how providers are managed and incentivized in the ACO
•	 Learn the benefits to the patient and how Medicaid ACOs can improve quality of care

    DAY two —Wednesday, February 25, 2015 (continued) 11:30 am – 12:15 pm Improve Medication Use for the Medicaid Population through Predictive Analytics The improper use of prescription medications, including non-adherence, is more than a $300B annual cost in the U.S. The ACA introduced bonus incentives from CMS to help improved adherence for Medicare patients, but did little to improve adherence for Medicaid populations. This often undertreated and mismanaged population is the most expensive to care for, and it is no surprise that organizations have historically focused on reducing medical costs instead of focusing on improving use of prescription medications. RxAnte’s unique predictive analytics and decision support platform has proven to be successful at helping plans improve medication adherence in the Medicare population. In this session, we will discuss how payers can incur medical cost savings by properly identifying, prioritizing, and targeting patients for clinical interventions and provider outreaches in the Medicaid population. • Understand how predictive analytics has helped drive improved adherence and quality ratings in Medicare Advantage and Dual Eligible Populations • Explore the importance of provider engagement in driving patient behavior change • Discuss the changing Medicaid environment and evolving quality measures and improvement incentives • Gain insight into the financial value and importance of adherence, including examples of disease states in which non-adherence contributes directly to medical costs Aaron McKethan, PhD President RxAnte 12:15 pm – 1:15 pm Luncheon 1:15 pm – 2:00 pm Explore the Implementation of ACOs in Medicaid Managed Care Medicaid health plans traditionally do not operate in an ACO environment, but this trend is now emerging in some major health plans. • Discuss the structure of a Medicaid plan ACO • Explore how providers are managed and incentivized in the ACO • Learn the benefits to the patient and how Medicaid ACOs can improve quality of care Marie Zimmerman Health Care Policy Director, Department of Human Services Minnesota Alicia Cooper Health Care Project Director, Department of Vermont Health Access Vermont 2:00 pm – 2:45 pm Utilize Telehealth to Improve Access to Care for the Medicaid Population • Discover Telehealth’s role in managing provider networks • Explore how Telehealth can increase provider and patient engagement • Use Telehealth to increase patients’ access to specialists to improve outcomes and lower costs Kathryn Kuhmerker Vice President, Medicaid Policy Association for Community Affiliated Plans 2:45 pm – 3:30 pm Integrate Duals in the State of Virginia Almost two years have passed since the implementation of the Duals Demonstration.
