Arbitration gives lifeline to South Country Health Alliance

The Minnesota Department of Human Services (DHS) announced late July that South Country Health Alliance’s (SCHA) coverage for MinnesotaCare and Medical Assistance would be discontinued in all but one county, threatening the survival of the health plan.
Following a mediation hearing held mid-September, DHS reconsidered its decision, and SCHA will be included as one of two potential managed care plans in each of the 11 counties for MinnesotaCare and Medical Assistance.
