MAIS Sponsors the NAMD Fall Conference
November 2015
The National Association of Medicaid Directors (NAMD) recently held their 5th annual Fall Conference in Arlington, VA. Attended by over 920 professionals from the Medicaid industry, the conference was NAMD's largest to date. The Rhode Island Medical Assistance Intercept System (MAIS) was a Gold Level sponsor for the event, maintaining an exhibit booth and attending informative sessions. Team members had the opportunity to interact with attendees from states across the country and make valuable connections to grow the program.
One of the most prominent themes represented in conference sessions focused on how states can deliver the best benefits to their recipients in the most effective manner possible. Medicaid is an expansive program, covering everything from birth assistance to nursing facility services, so spending efficiency plays a major role in success. MAIS hopes to assist states in this arena, recouping state money spent on Medicaid costs that should have been paid for by insurance companies. The MAIS team thanks NAMD for hosting an educational conference and looks forward to partnering with more states nationwide on such an essential program.
