SUMMARY:Unpacking the Third AHC Evaluation Report
DESCRIPTION:In November 2024\, the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Innovation (CMMI) released the third evaluation report of the Accountable Health Communities (AHC) Model\, in which Medicaid and Medicare beneficiaries in 28 communities were screened for social risks and offered navigation to help resolve identified risks. The 177-page report is chock full of interesting findings. Join us for a webinar on May 8th 11-12 PST/2-3pm EST to unpack the report’s findings with Dawn Alley\, former director of the AHC Model at CMMI and Head of Scale at IMPaCT Care and SIREN Co-Directors Caroline Fichtenberg and Danielle Hessler-Jones. This webinar is made possible with support from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation.

SUMMARY:Building Community Care Hubs to Address Health-Related Social Needs: Lessons from New York and North Carolina Medicaid
DESCRIPTION:As state Medicaid programs seek ways to address health-related social needs (HRSN)\, partnerships with community-based organizations (CBOs) are increasingly important. As trusted community entities\, CBOs are well positioned to understand community members’ needs and provide essential services and supports. In recent years\, the number of CBOs contracting with health systems and managed care organizations (MCOs) to deliver HRSN has grown significantly. Creating the infrastructure for effective partnership\, however\, can be costly and burdensome for CBOs\, particularly for smaller\, less resourced organizations. In response\, CBOs are forming networks — often led by a backbone organization called a community care hub — to establish shared infrastructure and a systematic approach for MCOs\, providers\, and CBOs to coordinate service delivery and referrals. \nThis webinar explored how state Medicaid programs are using the community care hub model to better tailor and coordinate delivery of HRSN services to address community needs. It highlighted key design and implementation considerations for building effective hubs\, based on the experiences of Medicaid agencies in New York and North Carolina. \nThe states featured are participants in the Medicaid Health-Related Social Needs Implementation Learning Series\, led by the Center for Health Care Strategies (CHCS) in partnership with HealthBegins and SIREN\, and made possible by the Kaiser Permanente National Community Benefit Fund at The East Bay Community Foundation.
