Why is it the right time for the State to take over responsibility for county Medicaid program growth and administration?
1. Current 3% local Medicaid growth cap exceeds 2% Property Tax Cap.
2. MRT and Federal health care reforms require greater administrative centralization to achieve efficiency and effectiveness goals.

Work Ahead
New York is poised to fundamentally transform its Medicaid program into a national model for cost-effective health care delivery.
New York is also well positioned to ensure that Medicaid reform also means more comprehensive health system reform.
The Medicaid Redesign Team has developed a multi-year action plan that if fully implemented will not only bend the state’s Medicaid cost curve but also improve health outcomes for more than 5 million New Yorkers.
To fully implement the MRT action plan, a ground-breaking new Medicaid 1115 waiver will probably be necessary.
Still a lot of work to be done: It is up to the state, stakeholders and the broader New York community to continue to work together to successfully implement this multi-year action plan.
