Care Management Program for Medicaid Select & Traditional Medicaid Populations
Public Information & Input Website
The State of Indiana recognizes the many benefits of having coordinated care for all persons in Medicaid. As such, the State has decided to implement a care management program, called Care Select, for the population currently under Medicaid Select and for many of those in our current traditional Medicaid fee-for-service program..
The Administration strives to create a program that will:
- More effectively tailor benefits to the aged, blind and disabled (ABD) population's needs by using evidence-based medicine to manage services by duration, scope and severity,
- Improve the quality of care and health outcomes for the ABD population, and
- Control the growth of health care costs for the ABD population.
This website is dedicated to offering current information on the progress of the project, community presentations, who serves on the Care Select advisory committee, and how you can offer your feedback and thoughts to FSSA.
