Hilltop Presents on Medicaid/Medicare Cross-Payer Effects at MACPAC Meeting

Hilltop Executive Director Charles Milligan gave a presentation before the Medicaid and CHIP Payment and Access Commission (MACPAC) at its monthly commission meeting on December 10, 2010, in Washington, DC. The presentation, entitled Medicaid and Medicare Resource Use For Dual Eligibles in Maryland, addressed the issue of coordinating long-term care for persons eligible for both Medicare and Medicaid (dual eligibles). In his presentation, Milligan discussed Hilltop’s research on Medicare/Medicaid cross-payer effects that found that Medicare and Medicaid financing do not align to promote home and community-based services.
