MINNESOTA SENIOR HEALTH OPTIONS (MSHO) in new approaches to serving seniors with chronic minnesota care systems such asEvercare, Access Alliance, and for both the Medicare and Medicaid programs. http://www.hhp.umd.edu/AGING/MMIP/grantees/Minnesota.html
Extractions: Introduction MSHO integrates Medicare and Medicaid financing and benefits and acute and long-term care services in a market-based managed care delivery system under a Medicare+Choice (M+C) contract between the federal government and the State of Minnesota. The State of Minnesota contracts with health plans to provide and manage health care and support services for seniors age 65+ in the seven-county metro area and in three rural counties in Minnesota. MSHO provides individualized care coordination to meet the chronic care needs of seniors. In September 2001, the state expanded the MSHO model to enroll people from 18 through 64 with physical disabilities in a program called Minnesota Disability Health Options (MnDHO). Nationally, MSHO is the first and largest state-sponsored demonstration that integrates Medicaid and Medicare for people in all settings. As a model that shows promise of meeting the chronic care needs of aging baby boomers, MSHO has attracted the interest of other states, providers, researchers, national organizations such as the American Association for Retired People and National Governors Association, and even other countries. Development of MSHO has been supported by grants from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation. Minnesota participates in the RWJF Medicare and Medicaid Integration Project (MMIP) a 10-state initiative focused on improvement of chronic care and administered by the Center on Aging, University of Maryland.
