Hilltop Presents at AcademyHealth Annual Research Meeting

Hilltop Executive Director Charles Milligan participated in a roundtable at the 2010 AcademyHealth Annual Research Meeting on June 28, 2010, in Boston, Massachusetts. The session, Balancing LTC: Can More Home and Community-Based Support Save Money While Improving Care?, explored the cost effectiveness of the most recent generation of home and community-based services (HCBS) programs and included the interaction between the Medicare and Medicaid programs, workforce concerns, and the need to better measure effectiveness. Milligan’s presentation, Dual Eligibles in Maryland, gave an overview of Hilltop’s research on cross-payer effects for dual eligibles in Maryland, provided the results of the study, and discussed some implications for policy.
