Government Programs should be managed differently, because some health plan are not equipped to follow the ACO model to decrease health care and provider quality care. I believe private health plans do not have adequate staff in the appropriate positions to perform care coordination successfully. On December 1, 2016, Star Tribune analysis announced Medica has plans to exit the Medicaid market, because they loss $150 million. Due to rising health care, prescription drug cost and DHS low payment rates. Medica failed to admit they have not implemented adequate efficiencies to assist with managing utilization cost.
