Partners Health Management (Partners) has been contracted to operate a North Carolina Behavioral Health and Intellectual/Developmental Disability (Behavioral Health/IDD) Tailored Plan as part of the state’s transition to Medicaid Managed Care.
Partners Health Management is expanding its coverage area to include three counties in addition to the nine it was already serving (including Rutherford). As a result, the Rutherford County Commissioners approved a resolution at their meeting Tuesday that will also expand its board.
Stanly County was notified today that Dr. Mandy Cohen, Secretary of the North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services (NC DHHS), has approved its request for realignment with Partners Health Management (Partners). The realignment has an effective date of September 1, 2021 and was approved in accordance with NCGS § 122C-115(a3) and county disengagement rules.
