Medicaid conducted an information session on June 13 regarding its proposed “Pivot Entity” (Alabama Coordinated Health Network) Initiative that builds off the Agency’s current case management program structure. A copy of the slides and the video presentation by Medicaid Medical Director Robert Moon has been posted on the Agency’s website. The webpage also includes a summary of the proposed project, which is subject to approval by CMS, and an email address to submit questions or comments. Important note: The proposed “Pivot Entity” program is designed to create a single care coordination delivery system that effectively links patients, providers and community resources in each of seven newly-defined regions. Delivery of medical services is not part of this program.
