Medicaid Funding and Policy Directions: The View from Individual States
Pressure on state budgets and cuts in Medicaid reimbursement have created even more challenging conditions
for long-term care providers. At the same time, many states are looking for ways to move more of their
Medicaid dollars into home and communitybased services and away from institutional care. In this session,
you’ll hear insights from four state nursing home association presidents and learn about the trends
they’re seeing. They’ll respond to the two previous general sessions with specifics about their individual
states. In addition, they’ll look at their new local policy initiatives, such as the push for patient-centered
or person-directed care, and the impact of budget constraints on their local Medicaid rates. You’ll
discover how these policies may have applications beyond their individual states—and how they may relate
to your own circumstances. Find out what these pros are seeing locally, what these trends mean for aging
nursing home stock and the need for renovation or replacement, and whether these policies are making
modernizing easier or more difficult.
