The True Cost of MCO Financial Leaks

In August, Agilian Medicaid experts shared where they’re seeing money leakages at MCOs and ways to intervene. While the financial impact of these leaks is substantial—potentially costing MCOs millions each year—the true cost goes beyond the bottom line. Every wrongful disenrollment or data error represents a real person who might lose access to essential health services. It’s not just about dollars and cents; it’s about ensuring that vulnerable populations receive the care they need without interruption. The human impact is profound, affecting individuals' health outcomes and overall well-being.
