70% of Medicaid Beneficiaries Enrolled In Managed Care – OPEN MINDS Makes Annual Medicaid Managed Care Update Free For Limited Time

Gettysburg, PA, March 16, 2018 -- A new market intelligence report from OPEN MINDS has found that about 70% of the 77.8 million beneficiaries eligible for health care services through Medicaid in 2017 were enrolled in a comprehensive managed care organization.
