AI Summary

This bill aims to increase transparency and accountability in the Massachusetts Medicaid (MassHealth) program. It requires all managed care entities (including health insurers, health plans, and accountable care organizations) to report annually on their spending on various healthcare services for MassHealth members, as well as the percentage of members receiving enhanced care coordination services from the managed care entities or from Community Partners (specialized care management entities). The bill also requires the Division of MassHealth to report annually on the total cost of care for members in the Fee-for-Service program, differentiating those who receive Community Partner coordination services from those who do not. The goal is to provide more comprehensive data to monitor and improve the quality and efficiency of care for MassHealth members.
