Abstract

This Study Snapshot summarizes research from Bettye Apenteng, Ph.D., Samuel Opoku, MBChB, Ph.D., and Charles Owens, M.S.A., at Georgia Southern University, who conducted interviews with representatives from eight regional and national MCOs serving eight states to learn more about MCOs’ lessons learned and emerging practices from efforts to address their members’ social needs. Study findings suggest that member engagement is pivotal to this programing, along with actively listening to community partners to inform a community-embedded approach to services.
