Short-Term Medicaid Utilization Associated With an Advanced Primary Care Model

An early childhood advanced primary care model that incorporates multiple evidence-based programs can show short-term, positive effects on preventative and acute care use and quality within Medicaid. These results highlight short-term strategies for sustainability while awaiting the long-term, cross-sector benefits expected from models like IMPACT. Future studies addressing additive model component effects and longer-term outcomes across mother-child dyadic and social-emotional outcomes are warranted.
