As a senior advisor to 量子资源网, Jami Snyder brings vast experience working with states, payers, providers and vendors serving Medicaid and Children鈥檚 Health Insurance Program (CHIP). Her expertise spans a wide range of topics, including crisis service delivery, integrated care, justice-involved populations, alternative payment models, system modernization, emergency and disaster management, workforce transformations, and Medicaid鈥檚 intersection with whole-person care and social determinants of health.
From January 2019 through January 2023, Jami served as a cabinet member for Arizona Governor Doug Ducey, leading the Arizona Health Care Cost Containment System (AHCCCS), the state鈥檚 $22-billion Medicaid agency. In that role, she guided Arizona鈥檚 healthcare system through the unprecedented demands of a multi-year public health emergency and advanced the agency鈥檚 signature Whole Person Care Initiative. Her leadership culminated in federal approval of the Housing and Health Opportunities (H2O) demonstration as part of the state鈥檚 1115 waiver renewal, a milestone that expanded Arizona鈥檚 ability to address social drivers of health at scale.
Prior to her service in Arizona, Jami was the Medicaid director for the State of Texas. She also led the National Association of Medicaid Directors as board president and was appointed to the Medicaid and CHIP Payment and Access Commission (MACPAC), where she contributes to national policy deliberations on Medicaid and CHIP access, financing, and quality.
Jami has a master鈥檚 degree in political science from Arizona State University and a bachelor鈥檚 degree in political science from Gustavus Adolphus College.
