New transformation Measurement Guide up for public review

Healthier Washington has created a Measurement Guide to document how performance toward transformation targets will be measured throughout the five-year Healthier Washington Medicaid Transformation.

Washington state, nine Accountable Communities of Health (ACHs) and Medicaid managed care organizations (MCOs) will be responsible for demonstrating achievement of and improvement toward transformation targets. Federal funding available under the Delivery System Reform Incentive Payment (DSRIP) program is dependent upon the successful achievement of these transformation targets.

The public review period runs through February 28, 2018. Healthier Washington is especially interested in comments identifying:

  • Areas of confusion
  • The ease or difficulty of navigating the document
  • Topics or themes that are not covered

Submit comments or questions to Healthier Washington Medicaid Transformation at medicaidtransformation@hca.wa.gov.

The Healthier Washington Medicaid Transformation is a partnership between the state and the federal Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS). Medicaid Transformation was approved by CMS on January 9, 2017, and lasts through December 31, 2021.
