CMS’s Medicaid Innovation Accelerator Program (IAP) is hosting a national learning webinar on Wednesday, August 7, 2019 from 2:00 PM – 3:30 PM ET on the topic of Demonstrating the Impact of Supportive Housing.
During this webinar, a framework and measures to demonstrate the impact of supportive housing will be presented. The webinar includes a discussion on the benefits of undertaking this type of work, as well as specific measures used across the country to assess the impact that providing supportive housing can have on health care utilization costs, homelessness, criminal justice, and other systems. Participants will also learn about tips to get started measuring supportive housing impact and considerations for working with outcomes data. Two state Medicaid directors will serve as webinar respondents and will share information about their states’ work in measuring the impact of supportive housing and the importance of state Medicaid-housing partnerships in developing supportive housing options for Medicaid beneficiaries.
