Improving Care
For People Enrolled in
Medicare and Medicaid
Improving Efficiency
So Healthcare Works Better
And Becomes More Affordable
Poor coordination between Medicare and Medicaid—two government programs that were never designed to work together—results in care that’s often:
Too Expensive
Inefficient
Hard to Access
Difficult to Navigate
Many people find navigating the healthcare system challenging, but it is more difficult for the more than 12 million people in America who are simultaneously eligible for both Medicare and Medicaid. This includes many older adults, those less economically secure, and people with chronic illnesses.
Now is the time for policymakers to better integrate these critical programs.
Lawmakers support better, more efficient healthcare for individuals who are dually eligible for both Medicare and Medicaid.
THE SOLUTION
We support quality, efficient, cost-effective care that puts people first.
The Medicare-Medicaid Integration Alliance is composed of organizations that want healthcare and social services to work better for the millions of people eligible for both Medicare and Medicaid and enable the providers who treat them to deliver more efficient and less expensive care.
