The state of Ohio is looking at some new possible approaches to serving its Medicaid population.

The Governor’s Office of Health Care Transformation plans to contract with insurers and providers to pay them more to keep Medicaid patients healthy and less when they treat Medicaid patients when they are ill.  Read about this in a Columbus Dispatch article.

Meanwhile, the same office has released a proposal to change how the state serves its dual eligible population – Ohioans eligible for both Medicaid and Medicare.   Read about that proposal in this Dayton Daily News article.
