Improving quality at the point of care, the practice site, has become a focal point of many Medicaid quality programs. Medicaid providers, who often practice alone or in small groups, can benefit greatly from these efforts, given that they often lack the support that comes with being in a large group or clinic setting.
During this 90-minute webinar, three experts -- from a Medicaid health plan, a state purchaser and a regional quality association -- discussed their experiences addressing quality improvement at the practice site.
