Filed As:  Health Care

This year Minnesota passed a broad set of health reforms that aim to promote healthy behaviors, align provider payments with value, standardize certain administrative procedures, expand Medicaid to more adults, encourage broader use of Cafeteria plans, mandate payment for medical homes, and require the adoption of e-prescribing and interoperable electronic health records.

For anyone interested in the state's perspective on these reforms, the MN Deptartment of Health just posted a series of web pages summarizing them.
