Abstract: This paper describes how a public-private partnership paved the way for an evaluation of Medicaid managed care with previously inaccessible data. Also included are (1) a brief description of Wisconsin’s Medicaid expansion program, (2) research questions and reflections on implications generated by key informant interviews, (3) some answers to these questions and their policy implications gleaned from a Medicaid enrollee survey, and (4) an assessment of the benefits and policy implications of this partnership. The partnership developed in Wisconsin is relevant for other states with large rural populations who will be facing both welfare reform and managed care.
