Rebalancing in capitated Medicaid managed long-term services and supports programs : key issues from a roundtable discussion on measuring performance Issue brief (Henry J. Kaiser Family Foundation) Musumeci, MaryBeth, author. Community Health Services -- economics Health Care Costs -- statistics & numerical data Home Care Services -- economics Long-Term Care -- economics Medicaid -- economics Process Assessment, Health Care Quality of Health Care -- economics Medicaid is an important source of health insurance coverage for seniors and non-elderly people with disabilities who rely on the program for essential long-term services and supports (LTSS) to assist with activities of daily living and maintain their independence in the community. Although the program has an historical bias toward funding institutional care, states have been working to rebalance their LTSS systems by devoting a greater percentage of spending to home and community-based services (HCBS). There is increasing state interest in managed long-term services and supports (MLTSS) delivery systems, and states indicate that incentives in MLTSS programs are expected to increase beneficiary access to HCBS. To explore issues related to how rebalancing progress in capitated Medicaid MLTSS programs is measured, the Kaiser Commission on Medicaid and the Uninsured convened a roundtable meeting on November 13, 2014 with a group of federal and state officials and other experts.
