Profile

Skilled at managing complex projects involving a mix of public agencies and private stakeholders, Patricia Boozang advises clients on the implementation of coverage, delivery system and payment reforms across government and private health insurance programs. Her clients include federal agencies, foundations, states, health care delivery systems and health plans.

Patricia advises states on Medicaid expansion design, implementation and sustainability, and has deep experience in Section 1115 waiver design, development and implementation, including with Arkansas, New Hampshire, Montana and Virginia.

Patricia guides states and marketplaces on policy matters, including eligibility and enrollment, benefit design, delivery system improvements, and technology development. For Minnesota, she led Manatt Health’s work to facilitate and provide subject matter knowledge to the Minnesota Health Care Financing Task Force, established in statute to make recommendations regarding the future of the state’s Affordable Care Act marketplace and coverage programs including Medicaid.

As a technical assistance advisor in the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation’s State Health and Value Strategies program, Patricia counsels states on a wide range of health care coverage policy matters, including those related to the ACA, 1115 and 1332 waivers, and federal regulatory changes related to health care coverage and delivery.

Drawing on her wealth of experience in Medicaid, Patricia regularly advises health plans and health systems on Medicaid managed care strategy and regulation, accountable care organization development, behavioral health access and integration, and other delivery system transformations.

Patricia is a frequent author and speaker on federal and state health care laws, regulation and policy. She leads Manatt Health’s business policy, strategy and analytics practice.

Prior to joining Manatt in 2000, Patricia was part of the senior leadership team of Physician Weblink, a startup health care technology and physician management company. Earlier, she was a consultant at Sterling Health Capital Management Inc., providing strategic advice to health care delivery system clients on a range of issues including primary care development and Medicaid managed care. She began her career in strategic planning and managed care at the Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston.
