Beneficiary Advisory Council

The Beneficiary Advisory Council (BAC) is an advisory group of Medicaid beneficiaries, their families, and caregivers.

The council provides a dedicated forum for individuals to give the Department of Public Health and Human Services (DPHHS) direct feedback on Medicaid access and program experiences. Some members will also join the Montana Health Coalition.

The council is required to meet quarterly, with meetings held in person, virtually, or by phone.

How to Apply

The DPHHS leaders will appoint new council members from the application pool.

The BAC application form is available now.
