Nebraska Medicaid seeks community feedback on programs

January 17, 2022

Lincoln – Kevin Bagley, Director of the Division of Medicaid and Long-Term Care (MLTC) within the Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) has announced a statewide listening tour for Medicaid's managed care program. 

Nebraska Medicaid will be procuring new contracts for the capitated managed care program, Heritage Health, in 2022. As part of this process, the Medicaid team wants to gather input from community members who would like to share their experiences with Medicaid's current health plans.

This valuable feedback will help Medicaid develop its next managed care contracts. Medicaid’s listening sessions will take place at the locations listed below.
