Arizona Trail Association
Before You Head Out, Let It Dry Out
Playing in the desert snow is very rewarding and absolutely irresistible. But as the snow melts and the AZ trail becomes muddy it’s very important to let the trail dry out before you go for a hike, run or ride. The damage that boots, tires and hooves can do to the trail will last much longer than memories of a fun day on the AZT. Please help protect the Arizona trail by waiting for it to dry out before you head out.

Governor Ducey Appoints New AHCCCS Director

This week Governor Doug Ducey announced the appointment of Jami Snyder as the director of the Arizona Health Care CostContainment System (AHCCCS).Snyder has served as deputy director of AHCCCS since December of 2017. Prior to joining Arizona’s Medicaid agency, she served asMedicaid Director for the state of Texas and as Chief Operating Officer of the University of Arizona Health Plans. She also previouslyheld posts as an Operations Administrator at AHCCCS and a Bureau Chief at the Arizona Department of Health Services. Snyder willsucceed Tom Betlach who will retire as Director of AHCCCS on January 4, 2019, after 27 years of service to the state of Arizona.

“With an over 20-year career in the health and human services industry and prior experience atop a state Medicaid agency, Jami is more than qualified to take the lead at AHCCCS,” said Governor Ducey. “I am pleased that Jami will bring her unique insight and expertise to Arizona’s Medicaid agency, which provides quality health care to over 1.8 million Arizonans.”

“I’m honored to be asked to serve as the eighth Medicaid Director for the State of Arizona,” said Director Snyder. “Serving 1 in 4 Arizonans, AHCCCS is a national leader in providing high quality, cost-effective care. Over the last 12 months in my role as deputy director, I have partnered with the team at AHCCCS to understand the operational underpinnings that have fostered the agency’s success and to promote the long-standing strategic vision of the program. In the years ahead, I look forward to working with stakeholders across the state in advancing that vision while exploring new opportunities to enhance member engagement; to support cost-effective innovation that improves access to care; and to partner with the broader community to address the social factors that increasingly influence individual health outcomes.”

Snyder, a 2013 Flinn-Brown Civic Leadership Academy Fellow, graduated with a bachelor’s degree in political science from Gustavus Adolphus College and went on to earn a master’s degree in political science from Arizona State University.
