Session details

Session description

What does integrated eligibility (IE) mean to health and human services (HHS) organizations, system integrators, Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), and to food and nutrition service? It is safe to assume that the response will have some commonality, but will also have many variations based on who we talk to. Let us consider the key aspects of IE - vision, funding, timeline, operations, collaboration, and systems integration. Each state is at a different level of maturity when it comes to their IE implementation.

Some have defined their vision and have gone a long way towards achieving their goals. Some have realized limited success. And, there are some who have had no success and must re-think their strategy. Therefore, for the agencies that are still in the process of formulating their strategy, there is no need to re-invent the wheel, as there are lessons to be learned from the earlier implementations, whether successful or otherwise.

Join our roundtable for insights and real-world examples on how the state HHS agencies can align their vision and strategy with the practicality of funding, formulate a strategy to define core vs. peripheral programs and associated timelines, integrate the stakeholders, implement change management, and manage technology to successfully implement IE.
