Bringing successful whole person care to high needs/high cost patients

The COVID-19 pandemic has put extraordinary stress on state Medicaid budgets. Enrollment is increasing, along with direct and indirect costs, at a time of declining state revenues. What can be done to mitigate these issues? CareMore Health, an integrated health plan and care delivery system for Medicare and Medicaid patients, is moving away from fee-for-service incentives to provide comprehensive care to its high needs/high cost patients. In this episode, Dr. Theresa Brown and Dr. Vibin Roy discuss the success of the CareMore Health clinical model, where clinicians and community resources are aligned and coordinated as a team.
