The Role of the Medical Care Advisory Committee in the Administration of State Medicaid Programs

Every state Medicaid program has a Medical Care Advisory Committee (MCAC). MCACs are required by federal regulations to have representation from state human service agencies, healthcare providers, and Medicaid consumers. Survey data presented in this study show the make-up ofMCACs by representative group. Other data presented show meeting frequencies, subcommittee structure, and information about MCAC activities. Comparisons are made from historical MCAC data showing long-term trends of their composition and structure. It is argued thatMCACs can be useful to state Medicaid agencies in policy development but have not been structured to do so. Recommendations are given to make MCACs more useful.
