Medicaid Policy, Data Analysis, and Policy Development

Medicaid Policy, Data Analysis, and Policy Development

DeBrunner & Associates uses our Medicaid, data analysis, and policy development experience and expertise to help our clients maximize their Medicaid revenue.

When we learn of proposed state Medicaid policy changes, we analyze them carefully, calling upon our deep-seated understanding of state and federal Medicaid reimbursement laws, regulations, policies, and formulas so we can determine their potential impact on our clients. A key tool in these analytic efforts is our extensive use of data: we construct massive databases for states in which our clients are located and use those databases to model the precise impact of proposed policy changes on those clients.

We use this same data analysis capability to power our own policy development endeavors. Through such activities, we often help our clients launch their own policy initiatives by documenting the need for a policy change, developing a policy proposal, and making a persuasive case that our proposal addresses both our clients’ and their state government’s needs. We can even work with our clients, and with groups of providers, in cooperation with their state governments to develop entirely new Medicaid reimbursement systems that better meet everyone’s needs.

Few organizations possess either the technical tools or the policy expertise to serve their clients in this manner; DeBrunner & Associates has both. Through the years we have used these distinct capabilities to drive numerous successful state Medicaid policy initiatives for our clients and help them maximize their Medicaid revenue.
