May 2000Vol. 1, No. 3Journal Looks at Managed Care and Child Welfare
The February 2000 issue of Children and Youth Services Review takes a special look at managed care and child welfare services. The issue includes a report on an annual survey of States conducted by the Child Welfare League of America's (CWLA's) Managed Care Institute's Tracking Project. Authors Charlotte McCullough and Barbara Schmitt of CWLA discuss data collected by the Institute from August 1998 to January 1999. Forty-nine States and the District of Columbia responded to the survey conducted; of these, 29 States reported ongoing or planned managed care or privatization initiatives, although not all of these States used those terms. The article includes a State-by-State summary of 47 current or planned initiatives.
