Money Follows the Person Medicaid Waiver Program
The Georgia Health Policy Center is working with the Georgia Department of Community Health to create a program logic model for the Money Follows the Person (MFP) Medicaid waiver program. The logic model is being created so that Georgia can focus on state-specific evaluation metrics as the program matures over the next four years. GHPC is also conducting one- and two-year post-transition interviews with consumers who have moved from institutions to community environments as part of the evaluation.
