This webinar features presentations by SHARE grantees Dr. Genevieve Kenney and Dr. Edward Alan Miller.  Dr. Kenney presents findings from her study of the impact of benefit design changes on preventive care utilization among children enrolled in Medicaid/CHIP in Idaho and Kentucky.  Dr. Miller discusses his analysis of Rhode Island's HEALTHpact program, which aimed to expand coverage in the state's small-group market through insurance plans that incorporate financial incentives for wellness behaviors.
