Virginia Department of Medical Assistance Services

Integration of Acute and Long Term Care

Governor Timothy Kaine has directed the Department of Medical Assistance Services to develop options for Medicaid reform in Virginia. The key option we will be pursuing under his direction is the integration of acute care and long-term care services for our seniors and persons with disabilities.

In his January 16, 2006 speech to the Joint Assembly, Governor Kaine noted directed “the Department of Medical Assistance Services to develop a plan which will serve as the blueprint for moving towards an integrated, acute and long-term care delivery system for elderly and disabled Medicaid recipients. This strategy offers the promise of controlling Medicaid expenditures without curbing access to the service needed by our elderly and disabled Virginians.”
