Not surprisingly, our scan shows a shift toward more integration of Medicaid benefits (and populations) into managed care contracts â and a decline in the use of traditional carve-out financing. 1  States have always adopted a mix of models to finance and deliver Medicaid benefits to eligible populations.
Fort Stanton (built 1855) was a U.S. military fort built in New Mexico in the United States. It was established to protect settlements along the Rio Bonito in the Apache Wars. Kit Carson, John Black Jack Pershing, Billy the Kid, and Buffalo Soldiers of the 9th Cavalry all lived here.
Stanton was organized in 1860 when the people of Montcalm County voted to move the county seat here from Greenville, which was the original county seat since 1840. At that time, the County Board purchased 40 acres (160,000 m2) from Fred Hall of Ionia and named the city Fred in his honor. The family of Levi Camburn was the first to settle here and he became its first postmaster on March 10, 1862. The city was renamed for Secretary of War, Edwin M. Stanton in 1863. Stanton was platted in 1865, incorporated as a village in 1869, and as a city in 1881. According to the United States Census Bureau, the city has a total area of 2.1 square miles (5.5 kmÂ²), all land.
