Abstract

States and non-profit organizations have used three approaches to successfully integrate enrollment and retention of health and human services programs:

1. Streamlining one program's eligibility determination based on data from other programs. This approach has helped uninsured children receive and retain health coverage, helped low-income seniors obtain SNAP, and produced state administrative savings.

2. Coordinated administration of multiple programs. Administrative savings resulted when multiple programs integrated their systems for case records, data matching, eligibility rules engines, on-line applications, and benefit payment.

3. Coordinating enrollment. Community colleges exemplify sites for enrolling consumers into multiple health and human services at once.
