NC Medicaid Hosts Webinar on Renewed 1115 Waiver

Join NC Medicaid for a webinar about the recently renewed 1115 waiver. The new waiver extends federal approval for North Carolina’s Medicaid Managed Care program and its efforts to improve access to evidence-based substance use disorder treatments. It also allows the option for the Healthy Opportunities Pilots, which invest in non-medical drivers of health like food and housing, to be taken statewide.

North Carolina now has the option to implement additional new initiatives, in line with the State’s overarching goals, focused on streamlining Medicaid enrollment for children and youth, improving care for the reentry population, investing in behavioral health and intellectual and development disabilities (I/DD) technology and bolstering the behavioral health and long term services and supports (LTSS) workforce.
