As the holiday season approaches, we want to take a moment to thank you for being part of the ODM community. No matter what holiday you celebrate, we appreciate you. Your strength, resilience, and trust inspire us every day. Wishing you and your loved ones peace, joy, and good health this season and into the new year.
Your Health This Holiday
The holidays are a time for connection and celebration—but also a great time to take care of your health. Don’t forget to:
-
Wash your hands often, especially before meals and after being in public spaces.
-
Take time to rest and recharge. Your well-being matters.
Stay safe and healthy so you can enjoy the season to the fullest!
We’re proud to share that the Ohio Department of Medicaid has received the 2025 Spotlight Award from the National Association of Medicaid Directors (NAMD) for its groundbreaking Next Generation Medicaid transformation. This national honor recognizes ODM’s bold efforts to modernize care for YOU and the more than 3 million Ohioans we serve. Our goals: putting people first, improving transparency, and delivering better health outcomes.
This award celebrates the dedication of ODM staff and partners across the state who worked tirelessly—even through the pandemic—to build a Medicaid system that truly centers around the needs of individuals and families. Read more here.
You can also hear what went into the transformation in this video.
