Medicaid Transportation in New York

Pages : 46
Book Description
Ensuring that Medicaid beneficiaries have appropriate access to care--in terms of both the availability of providers of health care services as well as transportation to those providers--is an integral aspect of Medicaid programs. Across the country, however, states have struggled to provide safe, reliable, and cost-efficient non-emergency medical transportation (NEMT) to their Medicaid beneficiaries. New York State is currently interested in identifying opportunities to update its NEMT program. While New York may draw upon the numerous program models implemented in other states, New York State's varying geography, rural-urban mix, and provider landscape-- coupled with the sheer scale of New York State's program, which cost over $370 million for fee-for-service (FFS) NEMT services alone in 2009--present unparalleled challenges to developing and implementing revisions to New York State's NEMT program. Further, as New York State has for many years delegated authority to local jurisdictions to manage many aspects of the program, the current NEMT structure provides an unlevel foundation upon which to implement revised administrative processes and provider reimbursement rates. New York State currently faces unprecedented fiscal difficulties. With the potential that revisions to the State's NEMT model will likely reduce expenditures, the State's fiscal situation presents an opportunity to hasten legislative, regulatory, and policy decisions to encourage swift development and implementation of revised NEMT models. In addition to reducing expenditures, revisions to NEMT also present opportunities to improve beneficiary access, strengthen provider oversight, and increase overall program satisfaction. With the increasing importance of delivering cost-efficient and effective NEMT services, the United Hospital Fund engaged The Lewin Group to assess NEMT options in New York State to assist the State as it considers how to modify its current program.
