This project will streamline and automate the process of data sharing between MDHHS Medicaid and jails. Through this new data-sharing mechanism, Medicaid benefits will be suspended on the same day someone becomes incarcerated and benefits will begin again the very first day the person is released, greatly improving treatment continuity including access to medications and therapies.
