On January 14th, 2020, Health Tech for Medicaid (HT4M) curated a morning session of experts and innovators highlighting those making bold moves in Medicaid. Medicaid is a joint state-federal health insurance program that covers one in five Americans—including elderly and disabled individuals, and 40 percent of all U.S. kids.
This event was a joint-led effort to learn about new strategies, share perspectives and stories of innovating better healthcare to people who are being served by Medicaid and underscoring the importance of technology-enabled innovation in building better options to higher quality and lower cost care. We aim to create a collective movement with experts, innovators, decision-makers and advocates around the state of Medicaid, the future of Medicaid and the tools in making a difference for the millions of people dependent on Medicaid.
