Who It Impacts

Compared to the general population, justice-involved populations are at an increased risk of negative health outcomes. Many of those incarcerated require a variety of ongoing behavioral and physical health services to address these issues and strengthen community care.

Benefits for MCOs

Update Beneficiary Status & Ensuring Continuity of Care

Medicaid payments can be suspended or terminated when beneficiaries become incarcerated and reinstated upon release--preventing overpayments and lapses in care.

Lower the Cost of Care Within Your Membership

Our data reduces cost of care for Medicaid beneficiaries by highlighting the costly justice-involved population among your membership. Proactive outreach to members who have recently been incarcerated drives cost savings. When members are referred to appropriate primary care doctors for mental illness or substance abuse disorders instead of showing up in emergency rooms, the cost of care is substantially reduced, and recidivism can be prevented.
