Meg Maxwell leads diverse teams on large fast-moving projects to establish policy, execute implementation, and conduct monitoring and reporting of complex Medicaid regulations and programs.
She works closely with clients to develop operational frameworks that support efficient processes, communication with internal and external stakeholders, and problem-solving. Through her operational expertise she has also developed subject matter knowledge related to Medicaid and CHIP data and reporting processes, Medicaid eligibility and enrollment, and home and community-based services (HCBS).
For the Medicaid and CHIP Learning Collaboratives project, Maxwell supported development of the Center for Medicaid and CHIP Services’ (CMCS’) eligibility processing metrics report and reporting specifications to establish state reporting on unwinding of the Medicaid continuous enrollment provision, including data collection, monitoring, and state technical assistance. As states implement provisions of the Working Families Tax Cut Legislation, Maxwell leads tasks related to CMCS cross-group coordination, including collecting and reviewing state plan amendment submissions for implementation of multiple eligibility and enrollment provisions.
In addition to her eligibility and enrollment work, Maxwell has strong HCBS expertise through her work on both federal and state projects. She has led technical assistance to Money Follows the Person grantees for federal reporting, including the development of written tools and facilitating virtual events. She currently serves in a leadership role for the California Department of Health Care Services (DHCS) HCBS project to produce a gap analysis report detailing gaps in access to the state’s HCBS programs alongside a multi-year roadmap detailing opportunities to address those gaps, both initiatives of California’s Master Plan for Aging. This includes overseeing workstreams related to stakeholder engagement and waiver redesign, investigating and understanding California HCBS programs, and identifying and developing content for internal and external stakeholders as well as public meetings.
She holds an M.P.P. from the University of Chicago’s Harris School of Public Policy.
