Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, state Medicaid programs have implemented significant change and innovation in delivering health and behavioral health services. Prepaid capitated financing and the provider networks created by Medicaid managed care expansions have altered systems of medical and mental/behavioral health. Most children in foster care receive services from the same community-based providers that serve low-income and publicly insured children and that are affected by managed care transitions. Most of these new prepaid delivery models have not been fully evaluated to determine their impact on access to services for children during their entry to foster care, placement, and exit from protective custody. Key health care financing issues for foster children continue to include Medicaid eligibility, enrollment and retention procedures, benefit limitations, payment mechanisms, transition procedures upon return to the biological family, use of managed care, and payment adequacy, among others. This brief presents a national overview of financing policies and their impact from the perspectives of state Medicaid, child welfare, and mental health agencies by evaluating Medicaid policies on eligibility, enrollment, retention, and coverage of physical as well as dental, developmental, and mental health services for children in foster care and comparing the perspectives of state child welfare agencies and state Medicaid programs on eligibility and coverage. The authors conclude that there are gaps in coverage, services that are not being reimbursed, and other administrative problems that result in incomplete coverage. Moreover, child welfare and mental health agencies charged with assuring that children in foster care receive appropriate, timely, and high quality health services report difficulty paying for needed services. This shows that states may be having difficulty implementing the ASFA requirement to promote children's well-being. Key recommendations and action steps are discussed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research has already been a significant factor in child welfare policy in recent years, but this essential new volume demonstrates that it has taken a leading role in the field to spur and guide change. In the incisive chapters gathered here, some of the field's top investigators present their work and assess its effect on the full spectrum of child welfare services. Future generations of researchers, as well as students, practitioners, and service providers, will find the resulting text indispensable. Edited by Duncan Lindsey and Aron Shlonsky, two of the discipline's most articulate voices, the book covers every base. The opening chapters situate child welfare research in the modern context; they are followed by discussions of evidence-based practice in the field, arguably its most pressing concern now. Recent years have seen historic rises in the number of children adopted through public agencies and, accordingly, permanent placement and family ties are critical topics that occupy the book's core, along with chapters broaching the thorny questions that surround decision-making and risk assessment. The urgent need for a more effective use of research and evidence is highlighted again with looks at the future of child protection and how concrete data can influence policy and help children. Finally, in recognition of the growing importance of a global view, closing chapters address international issues in child welfare research, including an examination of policies from abroad and a multinational comparison of the economic challenges facing single mothers and their children. With its insightful treatment of child welfare services in terms of the broader welfare system and acknowledgment of the myriad problems child welfare agencies face, this exceptional compendium offers a rich understanding of the social conditions that influence contemporary child welfare and enables the field to move ahead without losing sight of valuable lessons that have been learned.
