Transitioning Medicaid Enrollees from Institutions to the Community: Number of People Eligible and Number of Transitions Targeted Under Money Follows the Person (MFP)
The National Evaluation of the Money Follows the Person Demonstration Grant Program, Reports from the Field #1
Associated Project
The MFP demonstration is the most ambitious program to date aimed at helping Medicaid enrollees transition from long-term care institutions to the community. This report, the first in a new series, assesses the scope of the program—profiling the Medicaid population in long-term institutional care eligible for MFP, rates of transition to the community before MFP began, and potential change in transition rates if states reach their program goals. State MFP programs seek to transition about 36,000 individuals over the course of the demonstration, or less than 1 percent of the approximately one million people who could be eligible annually.
