St. Claire President on Managed Care

The president of Morehead’s Saint Claire Regional Medical Center says there’s a definite need re-evaluate Kentucky’s managed care system for Medicaid. Mark Neff was among those who attended Wednesday’s forum in Morehead on the challenges facing rural hospitals in Kentucky. It was hosted by State Auditor Adam Edelin.

Neff believes managed care can work but it hasn’t gone very well so far in the Commonwealth…

Neff says managed care needs to be structured and more refined in order for it to be effective. He says that hasn’t happened yet.
