Medicaid & CHIP Redesign Reform
The Department of Community Health (DCH), is exploring major changes to the Medicaid Program. DCH hired Navigant, a consulting company, to help in researching and redesigning what those changes for the aged, blind and disabled populations would look like in Georgia. Navigant held numerous meetings around the State talking with consumers, families, and providers to seek their input. However, when the Navigant Report was published little of the information gathered in these meetings was included.
DCH has now formed three work groups to address the complexity of the possible move of the aged, blind and disabled population into a managed care organization (CMO). These groups are the Aged, Blind, and Disabled work group, the Provider work group and the Families and Children work group. Members of these groups have met and will continue to meet to work until the best possible solution can be found for all Georgians who would be impacted by these changes.
