What the rule says

From MaineCare Benefits Manual, 10-144 C.M.R. ch. 101, as published by the Maine Secretary of State and read on an earlier revision. Quoted in part; the section itself is on maine.gov.

MaineMOM is a model of care that incents the integration and coordination of Perinatal Care and Opioid Use Disorder (OUD) treatment to meet MaineCare members’ health care needs through Per Member Per Month (PMPM) payments tied to quality outcomes.

MaineMOM Integrated Model Services,

CHWs apply their unique understanding of the community’s experience, socio-economic needs, language and/or culture to advocate for individual and community needs and acts as a bridge between providers and individuals to promote health, reduce disparities, and improve service delivery.
