Abstract

This report examines alternatives for improving the quality of health care provided to the aged, blind, and disabled population in fee-for-service Medicaid in Wisconsin. Options considered include maintaining the status quo, implementing a pay-for-performance system, adopting a primary care case management program, operating a chronic disease management program, and pursuing a combination of primary care and chronic disease management.
