Centene to Exit Hawaii's Med-QUEST Program

Centene Corporation is exiting Hawaii's Med-QUEST program, ending nearly 20 years of providing 'Ohana Health Plan services. The decision is attributed to rising medical costs, inadequate reimbursement rates, and changes in federal funding, making the programs unsustainable. Approximately 24,000 members will be affected, and Centene is working with state officials for a smooth transition.
