New Hampshire Medicaid Implements MCO Capitation Rates Linked To Performance

On February 15, 2019, the New Hampshire Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) announced the next New Hampshire Medicaid Care Management (MCM) managed care organization (MCO) contracts with AmeriHealth Caritas, New Hampshire Healthy Families, and Well Sense. The plans will be at-risk for physical and behavioral health, as well as pharmacy services, and will feature capitation rates linked to performance. The state's performance measures seek to ensure MCO accountability for results in addressing addiction disorder, integrating physical and behavioral health, providing robust care management, and reducing unnecessary use of high-cost services.
