• Managed care organizes health care through a network of doctors, hospitals and other health care providers who are responsible for managing and delivering quality, cost-effective care.

• The state pays a managed care organization a capped rate for each client enrolled, rather than paying for each unit of service provided.

What it is: A new Medicaid state plan option that provides a 6% increase in federal Medicaid matching funds for services to help keep Medicaid beneficiaries with disabilities out of nursing homes and institutional settings.

What this means for Texas: Implementation of CFC in Texas is projected to provide long-term services and supports to an additional 12,000 clients, many of whom are on interest lists waiting to receive waiver services.

Note: In order to qualify for the service an individual must earn 74% of FPL or less.
