Association of Maternal and Child Health Programs. 2019. Collaborations Between State Title V Maternal and Child Health Programs and Medicaid. Washington, DC: Association of Maternal and Child Health Programs, 9 pp.

Annotation: This paper outlines strategies for strengthening collaborations between state Title V Maternal and Child Health (MCH) programs and Medicaid, which share a mission to improve women's and children's health but operate under different structures and resources. The document emphasizes six key strategies: examining Medicaid's context; building relationships based on shared missions; leading with value propositions rather than mandates; assessing interagency agreements (IAAs); utilizing technical assistance resources; and highlighting successes. Through case studies from West Virginia and Wisconsin, the document illustrates successful collaborations, including quality assurance initiatives for children with special health care needs, prenatal care coordination, and data sharing.
