This presentation explores why it is imperative to slow the growth in spending of Medicaid and other state health programs and why it is so hard to do so. Examples of approaches states have tried and which are the most promising are provided.

Wisconsin, like almost every state, faced a large Medicaid deficit in 2008. This presentation is about the new approach the state adopted to change the nature of the dialogue between the state administration and key stakeholders to find savings and meaningful reforms. Now in its third year, Wisconsin’s ForwardHealth Rate Reform Initiative seeks continuous program improvement.
