The Medicaid Incentives for Prevention of Chronic Diseases (MIPCD) program provides grants to states to implement programs that provide incentives to Medicaid beneficiaries of all ages who participate in prevention programs and demonstrate changes in health risk and outcomes, including the adoption of healthy behaviors. The proposed information collection, the MIPCD Minimum Data Set (MDS), is intended to collect data for program performance monitoring and evaluation. The MDS is a secondary data collection that assembles information already collected by grantees in the course of tracking beneficiary participation and outcomes and performing their own evaluation activities.
