🌐 The Importance of Consistent Coverage for Medicaid Enrollees 🌐 The latest insights from the Association for Community Affiliated Plans (ACAP) draw from powerful narratives of Medicaid enrollees, underscoring the critical role that stable, uninterrupted coverage plays in their lives. 🔍 Key Findings: Health Stability: Continuous coverage ensures that enrollees maintain their health, manage chronic conditions effectively, and avoid the pitfalls of sporadic treatment. Financial Security: It shields families from unexpected medical expenses, providing a financial safety net that is crucial for those on tight budgets. Peace of Mind: Knowing that healthcare needs are met reduces stress and enhances overall quality of life. At Activate Care, we are committed to supporting policies and initiatives that ensure everyone has access to consistent healthcare coverage. The voices of Medicaid enrollees remind us why our mission is so vital. #Healthcare #Medicaid #ConsistentCoverage #HealthcarePolicy

Well said, Commonwealth Care Alliance! CHWs are critical to impacting health and social care needs in their communities.
A recent report from The Greater Boston Food Bank found that in 2023, over a third of households in Massachusetts reported facing food insecurity. Access to nutritious food is essential to staying healthy, but this can be particularly challenging for those with significant needs. If left unaddressed, food insecurity and poor diet can lead to chronic illnesses like heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and obesity. At CCA, our Community Health Workers (CHWs) utilize a comprehensive person-centered approach to fully address the social factors that impact someone’s care. Along with assisting with matters like housing needs and transportation, CCA’s CHWs support individuals struggling to access nutritious foods. They are embedded directly into our care teams and work with our clinicians to help members meet their nutritional needs and navigate government programs to break down silos and access the right benefits and resources. As trusted parts of the care team, CHWs are pivotal to our mission of delivering better health outcomes. By integrating food and healthcare, we can improve the health and wellbeing of residents across Massachusetts. Read the report: https://lnkd.in/ekTWZZMm #FoodIsMedicine #HealthEquity
