RIC Care Coordination Blog
Welcome to the Resources for Integrated Care (RIC) Care Coordination blog series where we will spotlight practices shared by health plans that serve individuals dually eligible for Medicare and Medicaid.
Health plans serving members enrolled in both Medicare and Medicaid are challenged with coordinating activities necessary to help manage chronic illness, while reducing health risks and decreasing the cost of care. Dually eligible beneficiaries often have multiple health care, behavioral health, long-term services and supports, and social service needs. We encourage you to frequent this page to read about strategies related to the best practices for coordinating care of individuals who are dually eligible.
