ACAP Celebrating Its 10th Anniversary!

ACAP is celebrating its 10th anniversary this year! The association was originally formed by health plans affiliated with community health centers, but it soon expanded to represent other community-based, nonprofit health plans.  Today, ACAP plans are the backbone of the Medicaid managed care program, which since 2000 has grown from serving 12 million to nearly 22 million low-income Americans.  Several ACAP members also operate Medicare Special Needs Plans (SNPs), managed long-term care plans, and state and local initiatives for the uninsured.
