The Managed Care Solution
As a result of Texas’ transition to Medicaid managed care, millions of Texans—including children and pregnant moms—see improved outcomes and increased access to preventive and timely care. Managed care plans improved care coordination for Texans with complex medical needs, reducing hospital stays and ER visits. The focus on prevention, wellness, and care coordination—getting Texans the care they need to get healthy, stay healthy, and live in their communities—has translated into lower costs for Texas taxpayers.
