Mr. Nagy is currently leading New Hampshire’s pursuit to extend 1115 demonstration authority from CMS to reimburse services for Medicaid beneficiaries with serious mental illness (SMI) or substance use disorder (SUD) provided by facilities designated as Institutions for Mental Diseases (IMDs). A critical part of NH’s behavioral health system transformation, this effort aims to improve beneficiary access to crisis stabilization services and acute behavioral health care services. Mr. Nagy developed a proposal for Medicaid to reimburse a tailored package of care coordination services provided to incarcerated individuals with SMI or SUD in the 45 days prior to release. Pending CMS approval, he leads the project management office overseeing implementation planning.

Recently, Mr. Nagy led a high-level assessment of strengths and opportunities within Oklahoma’s behavioral health system, focusing on programs for forensically involved people. He also led a capacity study of Georgia’s crisis services and forensic behavioral health continuums of care that culminated in a 10-year strategic roadmap that is being used to guide system expansion.

Previously, Mr. Nagy led the separation office for one of the nation’s leading specialty managed care companies, supporting its divestiture of a $3 billion Medicaid managed care business unit. He also led an economic feasibility analysis for state-operated behavioral health, long-term care and veterans care facilities overseen by the New Mexico Department of Health (NMDOH).

Prior to joining A&M, Mr. Nagy founded Advance Care Alliance of NY (ACANY). As CEO, he led ACANY through its launch as a Medicaid provider, securing designation as a Care Coordination Organization/Health Home, and grew it into an organization serving 25 percent of New York’s beneficiaries with intellectual and /or developmental disabilities and their families. He has also held leadership roles at CareCentrix and The Advisory Board Company.

Mr. Nagy earned bachelor’s degrees in finance and international studies from the University of Pennsylvania.
