Where Will We See Medicaid Health Homes Next?

Yesterday, we took a look at the 16 states that were first to implement Medicaid health home adopters (see It’s 2015! Where Are We With Health Homes?). But where will we see Medicaid health homes launch next? So far, there are eight additional states – Arkansas, California, Connecticut, Illinois, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Oklahoma, and Virginia – that have started the design and approval process for bringing health homes to their Medicaid plans. But, unlike Medicaid expansion, there is no hurry for states to implement health homes, as the enhanced Federal Medical Assistance Percentages (FMAP) – 90% for eight quarters – has no expiration date . . .
