Applying lessons learned to improve the effectiveness of contact tracing

Maximus first partnered with states in late April to run contact tracing programs. Operating with over 600 tracers, we achieve contact rates of 75% of positive cases on some projects — reaching most contacts within 24 hours. As we operationalize contact tracing programs in Florida, North Carolina, Kentucky, and Pima County, Arizona, we are gathering new lessons learned, new quality measures, and key findings – including some that couldn’t be anticipated when we launched Indiana’s program just a few months ago.
