How Health Plans Can Address Children Welfare

The Medicaid market for health plans wanting to serve children in foster care and/or with complex needs is growingly competitive. And the needs of children are increasingly complex. The state’s expectations are high. The pressure is on for healthcare to better meet the needs of our children. Health plans must be trained and equipped to take on providing for the comprehensive physical and mental healthcare needs of children who have experienced trauma and who may be involved in the child welfare system. This is a pivotal moment where the healthcare system and child welfare systems must come together to improve both systems and the lives of children. This session will feature a panel of experts who have different roles and valuable perspectives on how managed care can help transform the child welfare system and those it serves.
