Athena Won
Helping healthcare organizations transform lives and strengthen communities.
Athena Won empowers clients to expand access to critical programs and services across child welfare, intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD), and long-term supports and services (LTSS).
We do this by driving state-based Medicaid proposals and offering customized implementation and local support services.
We’ve seen it firsthand:
The RFP process can be disjointed, uninformed, and lacking the communication needed for success.
Our team of vetted, industry-respected strategists, Medicaid writers, and subject matter experts (SMEs) brings clarity, structure, and connection to every step. We provide managed care organizations (MCOs) ground game strategy, writer training, and handle proposal development and submission. We combine the agility and efficiency of a boutique agency with the ability to seamlessly integrate into your internal resources or work alongside other external partners.
Beyond the RFP, we also offer a variety of consulting and workshop services to change the healthcare landscape.
Our team is embedded within local communities to share insights and develop implementation programs and one-off trainings that help healthcare organizations achieve their goals.
As a 100% women-owned team of seasoned Medicaid and complex populations subject matter experts, we genuinely care about improving outcomes for vulnerable populations. Our approach means you get personalized attention and nimble response times, so we can work toward success, together.
