LINCOLN- The Nebraska Department of Health and Human Services's Medicaid and Long-Term Care Division concluded its Fall 2023 Medicaid Listening Tour this week, having completed 12 meetings in 10 different communities across the state. "I want to thank everyone who attending this year's fall Listening Tour meetings," said Interim Medicaid Director Matthew Ahern.

"It is crucial for our team to receive engagement and feedback from stakeholders to ensure that we are continuously making improvements to the program that positively impacts those it serves," finished Ahern. Throughout October and November, the Medicaid Division held the listening sessions to gather feedback from providers, members, and advocates about the changes DHHS expects to make to Medicaid in 2024.

The tour centered specifically around the new managed care contract with Molina Healthcare, policy updates to postpartum coverage, continuous eligibility for children, and dental updates. During these meetings, those in attendance were also made aware of the Medicaid Division's new integrated application portal, iServe.
