MCIR. The State’s experience with the MCIR has demonstrated that the availability of patient-specific information to healthcare providers can dramatically increase the number of children who receive needed medical services. To be most effective, the MCIR is not limited to Medicaid-eligible children, but instead covers all children in the State. To build upon the MCIR’s successful improvement of Michigan’s immunization rates, the State is currently in the process of expanding the system to cover blood screening for lead exposure. Once this expansion is complete, the State shall implement a project to expand further the system to include EPSDT information and shall use best efforts to implement this expansion by the end of 2010.
