Mostly Medicaid Addresses Key State Decision Makers at 2015 Human Services Finance Officers Conference

Mostly Medicaid experts presented to the HSFO attendees in Sparks, Nevada on a wide range of Medicaid topics. Key presentations included a look at recent and upcoming federal OIG scrutiny of state Medicaid financing mechanisms and review of state preparations for the coming age wave in social services.

Sparks, NV, September 03, 2015 --(PR.com)-- Mostly Medicaid addressed attendees at the 68th Annual Human Services Finance Officers conference in Sparks, Nevada. The event was held July 27th – 30th, 2015.

Mostly Medicaid contributed to two sessions at the event: “Evolving Approach to Medicaid Program Integrity” and “Are You Prepared for the Coming Age Wave.” For the program integrity topic, experts brought out not only new ways that Medicaid fraud units are catching the bad guys – but also new things that OIG is doing to tighten controls on how states generate matching funds through things like provider taxes and intergovernmental transfers. One audience member said “I hadn’t even thought about states being part of the program integrity problem with the way they finance the non-federal share. I’m going back to my team to put this on our project schedule for next year.”

The Age Wave discussion included insights into best practices, particularly for states that ranked high on the 2014 AARP Long Term Care Scorecard. Minnesota and Alaska were both discussed in detail as examples of how to best collect data for gap analysis for long term care infrastructure.

When interviewed, Clay Farris of Mostly Medicaid said that “the HSFO event has go to be the best kept secret in the Medicaid industry. We will definitely be back next year.”

Company History
We began with one simple concept in mind - think of Medicaid as a massive industry. Besides the healthcare services provided to Medicaid enrollees, there are hundreds of thousands of people that process claims, build software, consult with hospitals - just to name a few segments.

Those people need services and products to help them do their jobs, increase their revenues and improve their skills.

And that's where Mostly Medicaid comes in. Because most publishers in the Medicaid industry don't treat the industry like a business - and we do - we are uniquely positioned to reach your customers. We have built a brand those professionals trust to bring actionable counsel and advice to their business challenges.
