Posted on: Wednesday, 8 August 2007, 12:09 CDT

Research and Markets http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c65107 has announced the addition of The Medicaid Population: Identifying, Locating and Engaging a Hard-to-Reach Population for Disease Management Success to their offering.

This audio conference on CD-ROM provides proven ways to identify, locate and engage Medicaid patients in need of disease management and the results this can yield.

One of the greatest challenges organizations face when administering disease management programs for the Medicaid population is locating members and initiating contact with them.

Once identified, the next step in an effective Medicaid disease management program is a set of engagement strategies used in a variety of scientific and human service ways to effectively engage clients and get them involved in the program.

Here's what participants said about the live program:

- The conference provided "new tips on how to improve disease management programs," said Michelle Debernard, disease management coordinator with HealthPlus of Michigan

- "Excellent use of resources and ideas on engaging, identifying and improving interventions for asthma and maternity," said a disease management specialist with a mid-atlantic health plan.

You will get details on:

- Thinking outside the box -- creative ways to locate Medicaid patients in need of disease management;

- Working with state agencies to get current contact information for Medicaid patients;

- Using a multi-channel approach to identify and engage Medicaid populations;
