Medicaid Innovation Challenges
Connecting State Medicaid Agencies, Managed Care Organizations, and Innovative Vendors to Improve Communities
​​We partner with State Medicaid Directors and Managed Care Organizations to organize and deliver events that help solve for precise challenges in care delivery, utilization, and patient management.
​
Potential vendors apply for the opportunity to present to the Managed Medicaid Plans and State Directors to solve systematic problems in Medicaid. By connecting the providers, state officials, and innovators we can improve community health.
​By applying and being selected for a Medicaid Innovation Challenge an opportunity exists to engage in a curated setting with key decision-makers for strategy and procurement. A selected venture gets a direct audience with the Managed Care Organizations as well as with the State Medicaid Director and leadership, giving the company an advanced start to establishing business relationships in which needs are assessed and decided upon.
