Description

This brief describes recommendations to integrate health and human services. These recommendations include: integrating medicaid/medicare into a single health plan has benefits for beneficiaries; health plans need to use all available information and tools at their disposal; affordable housing is key to transitioning people from healthcare settings to the community; value based payment efforts will benefit from streamlined, relevant quality measures; and that technical assistance to spread best practices is still needed. Implementation and oversight of programs should be aligned with one another.
