NC Medicaid Transformation

In 2021, North Carolina transitioned to the "managed care" model for most Medicaid recipients. Instead of receiving Medicaid benefits from the NC Department of Health and Human Services (NC DHHS), most Medicaid recipients are now members of a Prepaid Health Plan (PHP). Members of the following four PHPs are eligible for care management services offered by DukeWELL.:

• WellCare
• Healthy Blue
• AmeriHealth Caritas
• Carolina Complete Health
