TAC Assists CSH to Develop Medicaid Institute for Supportive Housing Providers in Connecticut

Monday, February 10, 2014

TAC is assisting the Corporation for Supportive Housing (CSH) to develop and deliver a Medicaid Institute for supportive housing providers in the State of Connecticut. Representatives from approximately 8-10 selected supportive housing agencies will participate in seven full-day sessions that will take place between March and September 2014. The topics participating agencies will learn about include:

  • The range of Medicaid services and programs supportive housing providers are or may be eligible for;
  • Service model and primary care/prevention approaches;
  • Medicaid eligibility processes and how agencies can assist participants to become eligible and maintain Medicaid eligibility;
  • Assessing needs and impact of Medicaid coverage for populations not previously covered;
  • Conducting agency self-assessments to determine if they should become a Medicaid provider or a referring/supporting organization;
  • Successful approaches to being full service partners with Medicaid providers for the benefit of supportive housing participants; and
  • Developing business plans to either become Medicaid billable organizations or developing strategic partnerships with Medicaid providers in order to increase supportive housing services capacity.
