This
brief
from the Center for Health Care Strategies (CHCS) anticipates
many Medicaid beneficiaries' eligibility for various subsidy programs
shifting over time under health care reform, and identifies policy
approaches that may help smooth such transitions among programs. The
authors draw from existing exchange programs in Massachusetts;
transition coverage policies within Tennessee's proposed exchange
model; and current transition practices between Medicaid managed care
organizations (MCOs) and other programs. The document was prepared for
the State Health Reform
Assistance Network.

This recently enacted legislation calls for state
employees' clinical health information, as well as the information of
the state's Medicaid and CHIP enrollees, to be shared electronically
across providers and care settings. Employees or enrollees may choose
to opt out of having their health information shared (also called a
"health information exchange" or HIE), but under the legislation the
default is that they will participate in the HIE.
