This resolution directs a state research agency to hire an outside vendor to study whether a new way of delivering Medicaid services, called an Accountable Communities for Health model, could work in Kentucky. The study must be completed and reported back by November 1, 2026, and any pilot program that follows would be called the 20 by 30 Accountable Care Pilot Project. The goal is to gather information before deciding whether to launch a test program for this Medicaid delivery approach. Who it may affect: Kentuckians who receive Medicaid coverage and the communities and health organizations that serve them.
