���������� Note: We are pleased to offer another session in our ongoing Webinar series designed to help you prepare and prosper in the world of Medicaid Reform. Our next session will provide an opportunity to hear from Jodi Smith, from Family Support Services of Northern Idaho in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho. Jodi will share her experiences as she moved her agency into managed care. On September 1, 2013, Idaho Medicaid implemented the Idaho Behavioral Health Plan (IBHP). United Behavioral Health (dba Optum, Idaho) was selected to administer the plan using a managed care approach. Come join the discussion with Jodi about this transition and how Family Support Services learned to survive and thrive.
