Indiana Medicaid will seek proposals from insurers for $68 billion in contracts for Medicaid managed care services, according to a Jan. 30 presentation by the state’s Family and Social Services Administration.
The state plans to issue the request for proposals across the Healthy Indiana Plan, Hoosier Healthwise, Hoosier Care Connect and Indiana PathWays for Aging in August. Contracts would start Jan. 1, 2029, Secretary of the Indiana Family and Social Services Administration Mitchell Roob said. He coined the effort, “the mother of all procurements.”
“Details about the managed care entity procurement are still being finalized, including the scope and final amounts. Because of the complexity of the process, more information won’t be available until closer to its release early this fall,” a statement from Mr. Roob’s office shared with the Indiana Capital Chronicle said.
The Indiana Medicaid programs cover more than 1.4 million lives, according to the presentation.
At the Becker's 5th Annual Fall Payer Issues Roundtable, taking place November 2–3 in Chicago, payer executives and healthcare leaders will come together to discuss value-based care, regulatory changes, cost management strategies and innovations shaping the future of payer-provider collaboration.
