Partnership for Medicaid Home-Based Care

What Partnership for Medicaid Home-Based Care does

Partnership for Medicaid Home-Based Care (PMHC) is a Washington, D.C.–based policy advocacy organization founded in 2015 and structured as an LLC. It functions as a coalition representing home care agencies, state and national home care associations, managed care organizations (MCOs) and payers, and business affiliates (including technology vendors) across the U.S. Medicaid home and community-based services (HCBS) sector. PMHC does not sell products or technology; instead, it operates a dues-funded advocacy program that engages federal and state policymakers on issues affecting Medicaid-funded home care delivery, including the Medicaid Access Rule, workforce shortages, and reimbursement rates.

PMHC is governed by an Executive Committee whose officers are senior executives drawn from member organizations — currently including the Chair from Help at Home, the First Vice Chair from Addus HomeCare, the Second Vice Chair from Centene, the Secretary from TEAM Services Group, and the Treasurer from Aveanna Healthcare — and is led day-to-day by a CEO. The organization generates original survey research used in regulatory comments (e.g., data on the workforce and access impacts of the proposed 80/20 HCBS payment threshold) and disseminates positions through its website, news room, policy letters, and member education campaigns.

Revenue is derived from membership dues; the organization has not raised institutional funding, has 1–10 employees, and does not disclose financials. Its competitive position rests on the breadth and seniority of its member coalition, its decade of continuous engagement with CMS and Congress, and its standing as a primary industry interlocutor on Medicaid HCBS policy.

Core offering

Partnership for Medicaid Home-Based Care (PMHC) is a membership-based advocacy organization that represents home care agencies, home care associations, Managed Care Organizations, payers, and business affiliates. It engages government leaders and stakeholders to advance public policies supporting the Medicaid program and home and community-based services (HCBS). PMHC conducts survey research, issues policy proposals and comment letters, and coordinates stakeholder advocacy around federal Medicaid regulations such as the Medicaid Access Rule.

Product overview

Partnership for Medicaid Home-Based Care (PMHC) is a policy advocacy organization rather than a technology product company. It does not offer products or services in the traditional sense. PMHC functions as a collaborative alliance representing home care agencies, associations, Managed Care Organizations (MCOs), payers, and business affiliates. Its activities center on advancing public policies that support the Medicaid program through advocacy programs, policy proposals, legislative letters, and member collaboration. The organization focuses on addressing the changing dynamics in the delivery of home care, including increases in Medicaid consumers through the Affordable Care Act, the shift to Managed Long Term Services and Supports (MLTSS), and implementation of demonstration programs for dually eligible Medicare-Medicaid beneficiaries.
