The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) recently engaged MAP to provide input on the Initial Core Set of Measures for Medicaid-Eligible Adults. This report represents MAP’s findings and public comment on draft findings. In its review of the measures, MAP identified opportunities to revise and strengthen the Medicaid Adult Core Set. MAP offers a mix of general and measure-specific recommendations to improve the accuracy, breadth, and feasibility of reporting the Medicaid Adult Core Set. This report also includes information that was provided to MAP as background to inform its review of the Core Set, specifically an overview of the population of adults enrolled in Medicaid and the purpose and history of the Adult Medicaid Quality Reporting Program.
