America’s Critical Caseload: Innovation and the Future of Health and Human Services in State and Local Government

 There has never been a more turbulent time in health and human services in state and local government. The same long and deep recession that has dramatically driven down tax revenues for these governments has sent into their public assistance programs millions of people who never thought they’d need food stamps or welfare.  Add to the mix the Supreme Court decision on the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA), which dramatically expands Medicaid and you have a situation that is incredibly complex and volatile.

Join the Governing Institute and the Center for Digital Government as we present a live webinar on our findings regarding the need for a resource for leaders as they grapple with increasing caseloads and fewer workers, and look to technology to help remedy these issues.  

At this event we will address four vital reasons to modernize HHS delivery including:

  • Service collaborations, featuring the multi-state START program
  • IT System replacement
  • Financing models
  • Procurement

Hear from local government speaker, Kelly Harder as he discusses the need for a social services framework that moves from regulatory and compliance to getting ahead of the problem and allows public agencies to “see the face, not the case”.

  • It’s A Paperless, Paperless World..... Thinking Outside the Box to Gain Efficiencies through Prepaid Cards
  • April 23, 2013
  • Public sector organizations are under intense scrutiny to operate as efficiently and effectively as possible and with maximum transparency. An important consideration is the way in which payments are made and managed. Prepaid cards can offer flexibility, security and accountability to governments as a method of dispersing benefits, healthcare and social care payments, child benefits and housing benefits to their constituents.
