Experience
Christine provides actuarial support and consulting services to state Medicaid agencies and Medicaid health plans. Her primary role involves leading in-depth analytic support for the State of Indiana’s Medicaid program, including Medicaid managed care services, Medicaid forecast and budget development, and specific program support.
Christine leads capitation rate development and signs actuarial certifications for Indiana’s managed care programs: the Healthy Indiana Plan, Hoosier Healthwise, and Hoosier Care Connect, and also develops capitation rates for the PACE and NEMT programs.
For many years, the State of Indiana has relied on Christine to develop comprehensive Medicaid forecasts that are used in the state’s biennium budget. Christine models program and policy changes, working with the state budget agency and legislative fiscal analysts.
While managing supporting analytics for the Healthy Indiana Plan, Christine has developed an expertise with alternative Medicaid expansion issues and 1115 waiver budget neutrality. She also has extensive experience with implementation and management of provider tax programs and integration of pass-through payments into managed care capitation rates. Other special projects have included Indiana’s 1634 transition, pharmacy carve-in, long-term service and support rebalancing, mental health and substance abuse program redesign, and health reform analysis.
