Industry Insight:

Vendors Seeking Health IT Opportunities will Find Them in State Medicaid Systems  (Aug 2008)

Health information technology (IT) is increasingly part of the Medicaid Management Information System (MMIS) architecture. This State & Local Industry Insights report examines the increasing convergence between MMIS systems and health IT.

Description

Alarming statistics on preventable medical errors and low quality care in conjunction with rapidly increasing costs point to the need to transform the U.S. health care industry and better utilize IT. In an effort to address these issues, state governments are taking an active role in investing and leveraging health IT to support expensive state-run health care programs. At the forefront of these projects are state Medicaid agencies administering the MMIS and supporting the established networks which share participant information.

This report includes:

• Medicaid health IT initiatives by state
• How health IT is transforming MMIS in the states
• Recommendations for state health IT vendors
