Abstract

Minnesota’s Department of Human Services (DHS), the state Medicaid agency, designed a comprehensive program evaluation from the very start of its Minnesota Disability Health Options (MnDHO) project. This paper describes the process and presents the evaluation tools developed. We hope this will serve as a blueprint for other researchers and state regulatory agencies to prospectively construct their own evaluations at the time of program startup.
