Maureen Corcoran, director of the Ohio Department of Medicaid, is leaving her position effective Oct. 31, Gov. Corcoran has led Ohio’s largest agency since the start of the DeWine administration in 2019. One major project under her leadership was the method in which the department paid for prescription drugs. After being charged huge markups by massive drug middlemen, the department replaced them with a different arrangement that provided greater transparency and increased pharmacy reimbursements. “I wish Director Corcoran the very best in this next chapter,” DeWine said in a written statement.
