News on MLTCs and MLTC applications

On Friday, Jan. 25 two reports were published by DOH: The Annual Report on the performance of Managed Long Term Care (MLTC) plans and the tracking of MLTC applications.

The MLTC Annual Report includes: Enrollees' experience as reported in a 2011 satisfaction survey; quality of life and care information based on the January 2012 submission of semi-annual assessment of enrollees' functional and cognitive status; and quality performance over time (based on changes seen in assessments between 2010 and 2011). General information about the counties and populations served by individual plans is also included.

The MLTC Report and related consumer guides and reports are available on the DOH website. This site also includes information on external appeals, contracts, several other reports and an updated consumer guide.
