Overview

The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) established the Medicaid Managed Care Rule to: 

• Promote quality of care 
• Strengthen efforts to reform the delivery of care to individuals covered under Medicaid and Children’s Health Insurance Plans (CHIP) 
• Strengthen program integrity by improving accountability and transparency
• Enhance policies related to program integrity 
  

With the Medicaid Managed Care Rule, CMS updated the type of information managed care organizations are required to include in their care provider directories.
