Free Webinar | Better Quality and Cost for People Eligible for Both Medicare and Medicaid

More than 10 million Americans qualify for Medicare and are eligible for some level of Medicaid benefits. They receive health care in often fragmented settings from two distinct programs. This webinar will provide insight on ways to effectively provide care for the dually eligible population and work with the state to help control costs, along with specific examples of what WellPoint is doing on a state level to address the dually eligible population and share success stories from Amerigroup Tennessee.

In this upcoming webinar, Dr. William Wood, Chief Medical Officer of Behavioral Health for Amerigroup Tennessee, will provide insight into managing dual eligibles as a preview to his participation at Medicaid Managed Care Congress 2014. Dr. Wood's professional experience includes more than 25 years in behavioral health care and executive-level medical management. At Amerigroup Tennessee, Dr. Wood is responsible for overseeing and directing the behavioral health programs to meet the contractual requirements and expectations of TennCare of Tennessee, the state's Medicaid managed care program.
