Measuring the Effectiveness of Managed Care for Adults with Disabilities
December 2005 Measuring the Effectiveness of Managed Care for Adults with Disabilities This report reviews the challenges the coordinated care organizations (CCO) encounter in measuring quality and offers a comprehensive approach for developing a relevant and actionable measurement set. The proposed approach presents a way for CCOs, their staff, and state Medicaid agencies to benchmark CCO achievements and to identify areas needing improvement. The recommendations are drawn from visits to seven pilot programs:Access II Care of Western North Carolina- Asheville, NC Â AXIS Healthcare- Minneapolis, MN Â Commonwealth Care Alliance- Boston, MA Â Independence Care System- New York, NY Â Vermont Medical Home . . .
