group of physicians, nurses, researchers, and other health
professionals. They represented academic health centers, community
health centers, nursing and medical schools, and MCOs. 25
presentations and interactive workshops, led by national leaders
in their respective fields, addressed a broad spectrum of
Medicaid managed care issues, all with a focus on teaching
and real-world applications.
