Shadac projection model. The writing explains the background of the model, the methods and analysis, policy options analyzed, and outcomes of the project. The model was developed with the support of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation's State Health Reform Assistance Network program. The SHADAC Projection Model is designed to be flexible, evidence-based, transparent, and easy for state officials to understand and use independently. This brief overviews the SHADAC Projection Model, a complex spreadsheet model that states can use to estimate the impacts of policy changes on health insurance coverage. This brief, prepared by State Health Access Data Assistance Center (SHADAC), overviews the SHADAC Projection Model, a complex spreadsheet model that states can use to estimate the impacts of policy changes on health insurance coverage. Similar to a microsimulation model, the SHADAC Projection Model analyzes how policy changes affect individual and employer behaviors, and how these behavior changes translate into shifts in health insurance coverage. SHADAC developed this model to address the need among states for analysis that is timely, state-specific, relatively inexpensive, and flexible for testing alternative assumptions to predict the coverage impacts of policy changes at the state level. . This slide deck prepared by State Health Access Data Assistance Center (SHADAC) for the Minnesota Health Services Research Conference, provides an overview of the SHADAC Projection Model and highlights its goals and basic structure.
