Gettysburg, Pa, March 12, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- GETTYSBURG, Pa. (March 11, 2019) — Responding to the New York State decision to transition I/DD services to a regional managed care model, OPEN MINDS and Core Solutions Inc. are hosting The New York I/DD Futures Forum, on Wednesday, April 24 in New York City.

The New York I/DD Futures Forum is the first statewide event intended to help executives of organizations serving consumers with intellectual/developmental disabilities population prepare for the transition to the revised New York State Medicaid Managed Care Organization I/DD System.

The New York I/DD Futures Forum is designed as an information-rich day with updates and insights from state I/DD thought leaders and providers.

WHAT:            The New York I/DD Futures Forum

WHERE:         AMA Executive Conference Center 1601 Broadway, New York, NY 10019.

WHEN:            Wednesday, April 24, 2019, 10:00 A.M. – 3:00 P.M.

COST:             The New York I/DD Futures Forum is free but space is limited. Registration is required at: https://www.openminds.com/ny-i-dd-future-forum/

Over the past several years, 24 states have initiated the process of transitioning I/DD provider services to managed care systems. The scope of these changes has varied from state-to-state, but in many instances, the impact on I/DD providers has been traumatic. Some providers in those states did not survive the transition.

The New York I/DD Futures Forum program offers the latest information to help executive teams address these new challenges and develop effective strategies to successfully transition to the revised New York State I/DD MCO model.
