Washington State. Washington State Veterans Benefit Enhancement Program (VBE) focuses on low- income U.S. military veterans and their families that rely on Medicaid, and may not realize they are eligible for comprehensive federal care and benefits programs that would provide better benefits while preserving their homes and financial assets. The VBE staff embarked on a pioneering effort using available federal data provided by the Public Assistance Reporting Information System (PARIS) to connect Medicaid recipients with their federal veteran’s benefits. Washington began its efforts in 2002, focusing on long-term care beneficiaries, most of them in nursing homes, and working in partnership with the Washington State Department of Veterans Affairs. Since then, the state program has become a national model and best practice for using PARIS veteran’s data with 32 other states establishing similar efforts. The program is of benefit to veterans and results in redirection of Medicaid funding to others in need. The program is committed to building upon the over $100 million in savings since 2004 and has benefitted over 60,000 Washington veterans and families. During the State Fiscal Year (SFY) 2019, through Veterans Benefit Enhancement efforts the department reported medical costs avoidance of $23.6 million.
