2
Update children’s hospitals and pediatric
regional centers on the State’s plans to
transition CSHCS population with Medicaid into
Medicaid Health Plans (MHPs)
Provide an opportunity for Department to
obtain input from hospitals and regional centers
on transition plans
3
Approximately 21,000 children (and some
adults) enrolled in CSHCS with full MA.
Approximately 3,500 of this group will be
voluntary for or excluded from managed
care enrollment
DCH estimates approximately 10 – 15
thousand CSHCS eligibles (CSHCS “look
alikes”) are currently enrolled in the MHPs –
not enrolled in CSHCS
Data indicates that look-alike population has
a lower acuity and expenses than CSHCS
enrolled population as a whole
MHPs do serve high acuity individuals –
ABAD, CSHCS aged-outs, etc.
4
Budget for FY12 passed in May 2011
Sec. 1204. By October, 2011, the department
shall report to the senate and house
appropriations committees on community
health and the senate and house fiscal
agencies on its plan for enrolling Medicaid
eligible children’s special health care services
recipients in the Medicaid health plans. The
report shall include information on which
Medicaid health plans are participating, the
methods used to assure continuity of care
and continuity of ongoing relationships with
providers and projected savings from the
implementation of the proposal
5
In FY12, administration concurred that the
planning process for transitioning this
population required a more extensive
planning and implementation process than
the transition of other populations
Therefore, implementation of the transition
will take place in FY 13
6
The internal work group has identified
several benefits to enrolling CSHCS
beneficiaries into MHPs:
Organized approach to primary care
Addition of complex case
management
Ability for quality monitoring
Access to outpatient mental health
services
Increased access to non-emergency
transportation services
7
Following similar structure used to
transition of other populations
Department convened internal work
group comprised of 25 state staff from
CSHCS and MSA
Meetings monthly as a group with
additional meetings for subgroups on
topics such as data, systems
Department utilizing regularly scheduled
monthly operations workgroup meetings
with Medicaid Health Plans to discuss the
infrastructure within the MHPs to
successfully transition population
Key staff from CSHCS, MSA and
Enrollment Broker regularly attend
8
During internal and operations
workgroups, staff and other experts are
providing educational sessions on
multiple topics relevant/unique to the
transition of CSHCS population into
managed care
Contract requirements
Care coordination
Quality strategy
CMS clinics
CSHCS benefit package
Family-centered medical home
Prior/Authorization for DME,
therapies, etc.
9
Department also making contact with
key stakeholders such as hospitals, local
health departments and CSHCS Advisory
Committee to obtain input/feedback
10
11
Last two provider L-letters being finalized

Outreach to CSHCS families and providers
continues
Monitoring of the CSHCS family phone line
and Beneficiary HelpLine will begin in
October
12
August 1: CSHCS stopped mailing
applications to Medicaid beneficiaries also
eligible for CSHCS; CSHCS eligible =
enrolled in CSHCS for these beneficiaries
October 1: MHP enrollees with new CSHCS
diagnoses since 8/1 will begin in the
CSHCS-MC benefit plan and the MHPs will
be required to meet the special contract
requirements
October 1: Enrollment of UP CSHCS
enrollees
November 1: Current CSHCS/FFS enrollees
in lower MI begin enrollment over 5 week
period – begin with Kent County and end
with Wayne County
April 1: Conversion of MHP Enrollees
meeting CSHCS eligibility criteria to CSHCSMC
13
Policy Bulletin issues 9/1/2012; effective 10/1/2012
Requires individuals who have both CSHCS
eligibility and MA eligibility (CSHCS/MA
beneficiaries) to enroll in health plan unless
excluded for some other reason such as PPO
insurance or incarceration
MI Enrolls will conduct the choice counseling and
process the enrollment into the MHPs
Individuals have 90 days after enrollment to
transfer to another MHP
All providers MUST verify eligibility and enrollment
status prior to providing services; CSHCS/MA
beneficiaries will have CSHCS-MC listed as the
benefit plan another with the name of the MHP
in which the beneficiary is enrolled
14
MHPs must cover all Medicaid covered services
specified in contract
MHPs may have different PA requirements,
formularies and documentation requirements
All services currently carved out of MHP contract
remain carved out; plus the following will be
carved out effective 10/1:
In-state approved intensive feeding clinic
Drugs used to treat coagulopathies such as
hemophilia
Orphan drugs used to treat rate metabolic
disorders
15
Following services continue to be covered by
CSHCS and are not the responsibility of the MHP:
LHD care coordination and case management
Children's Multidisciplinary Specialty Clinic facility
payment
Orthodontia (for specific qualifying diagnoses)

21
Encounter and FFS claims experience from FY10 and
FY11 associated with the CSHCS population was
analyzed by consulting actuarial firm Milliman
Data were both completed and trended 30 months
from the claims/data year to mid-rate year of FY13
CSHCS population rates were developed using its
own rate structure (base rate, regional factors, etc.)
Rate structure and actuarial models for CSHCS are
consistent with existing MCO rates
CSHCS population split between Disabled and TANF
populations with further divisions in the TANF group
by age
Children less than 1 (both Disabled and TANF) also
have a unique rate cell based on their historically
high costs
22
•
•
Specific carve-outs were identified for exclusion from the
rates (dental services and certain pharmaceuticals)
Beneficiaries receiving private duty nursing were
excluded entirely from the rate analysis since they will not
be enrolled in the health plans
Adjustments made to include non-emergency
transportation, HMO administration, amounts equivalent
to FFS supplemental payments (GME, HRA, SNAF) and
claims tax
Stop/loss or risk sharing arrangements were investigated,
but the decision was made to pursue a full risk
arrangement for this population
Rates were presented to MHPs and discussed at length
Final capitation rates assumed managed care savings
fairly evenly distributed across provider categories
Rates were submitted to CMS in July for approval
23
•
While all MHPs have different approaches
for improving cost-effectiveness, some or all
of the following elements come into play
(this is a general discussion that is not
CSHCS-specific):
– Each member is assigned a primary care
physician who is responsible for
coordinating the member's care
– Improved access to primary and
specialist physician care reduces ER,
outpatient, and inpatient hospital costs
24
– Coordinated care management:
• Avoids duplicative lab, x-ray, and other
diagnostic work
• Avoids duplicative and conflicting
pharmaceuticals
• Promotes better communication between
primary care and specialist physicians
– Emphasis on preventive care and
compliance with regimens improves health
outcomes and lowers costs
– Emphasis on prenatal care results in fewer
intensive care babies and therefore lowers
costs
25
– Intensive case management of Disability
clients in particular improves health
outcomes and lowers costs
– Better access to mental health care
reduces need for more intensive care
from the mental health system down the
road
26
Medicaid Health Plans (MHPs) have
agreements with 6 Public Entities
University of Michigan
Wayne State University
Michigan State University
Hurley Hospital
Oakland University
Western Michigan University
Amount is built into MHP capitation by
MDCH to reflect historical usage of
physicians affiliated with these Public
Entities
27
If MHPs cannot provide the specialty
services within their networks, this
arrangement comes into play
MHPs pay the Public Entities from the SNAF
capitation component in proportion to
the Public Entities' percentage of SNAF
services provided
The SNAF component is designed to
reimburse Public Entity physicians up to
roughly commercial rate levels and, in
effect, supplements the amounts paid by
the MHPs to the Public Entity physicians
when the provider claim was paid

needs, based on available information
Are other family members on the case in a MHP?
With what MHPs do the authorized providers
participate?
In the event of a tie the MHPs have equal weight
and the assignment to the MHPs will be evenly
distributed, taking into consideration MHP
capacities
33
Capacities
Capacity: Number of beneficiaries a
Medicaid Health Plan (MHP) can
adequately serve in a county.
CSHCS capacity request is submitted by the
MHP and reviewed by MDCH
Capacities are monitored constantly to
ensure adequate coverage in all service
areas

manager, LHD coordinator, CMS clinic,
subspecialists, mental health provider, schools.
42
Enhanced payment per member per month to
compensate for extra effort for care
coordination.
Only approved PCP will receive enhanced
payment
$4 / $8 per member per month
43
Workgroup established including representatives
from CSHCS, MSA, LHDs, and MHPs
Workgroup charge: to develop a model whereby
the care coordination activities delivered by the
various providers be coordinated to assure that
the family is receiving the necessary services and
supports to achieve the best outcome for the
beneficiary while avoiding duplication
For care coordination/case management that
results in a care plan, the goal is a single clear,
comprehensive plan of care in which the families
have input and can easily understand/follow
Seeking electronic solutions for secure portal
through which involved providers can
access/update care plan
44
Current focus is on coordination of LHD/MHP
coordination activities, but will soon include CMS
Clinics. Coordination with FCMH practices is
longer term
Product: CSHCS Coordination Agreement
template for use between MHPs and respective
LHDs
Base template can be modified to address the
unique strengths and needs of each MHP and
LHD as well as the communities they serve
45
For members not meeting complex case
management criteria, plans typically provide:
Assessment, individualized care plan
development, prioritized goals and barrier
busting
Assistance obtaining needed authorizations for
DME, therapies, or other ancillary services and
arranging for timely delivery of these services
Facilitation of transitions between levels of care
or intensity of services
Patient/family education, including role of family
in the treatment plan/maintenance of
member’s health status
46
For members not meeting complex case
management criteria, plans typically provide:
Appointment scheduling assistance
Transportation assistance
Referral to community and other resources–
collaboration with LHDs
47
For members meeting complex case management
criteria (e.g. complex medical needs/multiple
comorbid conditions, high utilization of ED or
inpatient, need for assistance in system
navigation), plans are required by their accrediting
bodies, to provide:
Assessment and care planning within 30 days of
identification of the member meeting complex
case management criteria
Plan’s procedures must address all of the
following:
Member’s right to decline complex case
management
Comprehensive assessment, including ADL,
mental health, cognitive functions, life-planning
activities, cultural and linguistic needs, caregiver
resources, available benefits
48
Plan’s procedures must address all of the following
(Continued)
• Development of an individualized plan of care
including longer and short term goals,
resources, planning for continuity of care and
transitions, family participation
• Identification of barriers to meeting goals or
complying the with plan
• Schedule for follow-up communication with
member
49
Plan’s procedures must address all of the following
(Continued)
• Development of member self-management
plans
• Process to assess progress against case
management plans for members
• In some communities, LHDs will assist with
pieces of complex case management,
assessment and care plan development
50
Level 1 Care Coordination is the development of a
plan of care (POC) through the identification,
documentation and organization of information
regarding the health, social, familial and
environmental circumstances and needs of
the CSHCS client/family in coordination with the
MHP
The POC is organized with and for the family and is
a resource document for families, provides and
care coordinators
51
The LHD/POC must include:
Client summary/assessment
Dated list of problems/concerns
Corresponding problem-specific goal(s) unique
to each client/family, with family input
Identification of appropriate intervention(s) and
designation of person who will provide each
intervention
52
Level 2 Standard Care Coordination consists of
interaction with the CSHCS client/family and other
involved with the care by the client by telephone,
in person or in writing.
Level 2 Care Coordination includes but is not
limited to:
Client advocacy
Assisting with needed social, education or other
support services at the community level
Processing Children with Special Needs (CSN)
Fund applications
53
LHD Case Management is designed for CSHCS
clients with complex medical care needs and/or
complex psychosocial circumstances
LHD Case Management must be delivered in the
home or other non-institutional setting of the
family's choice and be provided face-to face in
coordination with the MHP
The Case Management POC must be developed
by a public health nurse in collaboration with the
client/family, in coordination with the MHP
54
DCH has developed a process to share active
PA information in the system with the MHPs for
the plan’s enrollees
Providers must still submit a copy of the PA with
the claim for services
Three key areas:
Transplants
Therapies
DME
55
Beneficiaries with a PA for a transplant will remain
excluded from MHP enrollment until 30 days prior to
the end of the PA
MHP will work with the transplant provider to
establish a new PA
FFS PA will remain in effect for the first 30 days in
which the beneficiary is enrolled with the MHP
If the beneficiary is actively receiving a transplant or
immediate post-transplant care at the time of the
expiration of the PA, it may be possible to extend the
PA and continue the beneficiary’s exclusion from the
MHP. This will be decided on a case-by-case basis
by a MDCH medical consultant using medical
reports provided by the physician and hospital
involved.
56
The MHP must accept prior authorizations
(PA) in place for therapies when the CSHCS
enrollee is enrolled into the plan
If the PA is with a non-network ancillary
provider, the provider will be reimbursed at
the FFS Medicaid rate
After 30 days the MHP may use its own PA
procedures and network ancillary services
57
When custom-fabricated equipment
(prosthetic or orthotic) is ordered for a
beneficiary during a hospital stay but not
delivered until discharge and enrollment
changes, the payment must be made by the
party responsible for the hospital stay
When a custom-fabricated, -fit, or -modified
service is prior authorized and ordered by the
provider before a change of enrollment, the
party that authorized the service is responsible
for payment. DME must be delivered within 30
days
58
For non-custom DMEs and medical supplies,
the MHP must accept FFS prior
authorizations (PA) in place when the
CSHCS enrollee is enrolled into the plan
If the PA is with a non-network ancillary
provider, the provider will be reimbursed at
the FFS Medicaid rate
After 30 days the MHP may use its own PA
procedures and network DME and medical
supplier services
59
There are various contract administration and
performance monitoring mechanisms in place that
the CSHCS population will be included in:
Monthly performance monitoring
HEDIS
CAHPS
Annual compliance reviews
MDCH conducts assessment of health plans
compliance with contract requirements and is
planning a compliance review visit to each of the
MHP’s serving CSHCS enrollees beginning in early
June 2013
60
The 2013 compliance review focus study visit will
focus solely on the MHP’s management of the
CSHCS population and its ability to provide quality
and coordinated care
Physicians from the MDCH Office of Medical Affairs
(OMA/CSHCS) will be attending these compliance
review visits for a clinician perspective
61
DCH added contract requirements on several
topics to ensure access to care and monitoring of
the Role of MHP in providing data for CSHCS
eligibility
Maintaining continuity of care for primary and
specialty care
Following thru on FFS prior authorization for
providers in and out of MHP network
Special contracted network adequacy and
availability requirements, including use of out-ofnetwork providers for providing services to
CSHCS enrollees
Maintaining Grievance and appeal process
specific to CSHCS enrollees/ Separate reporting
62
Monitor and report performance against
defined measures for CSHCS enrollees (e.g.,
HEDIS, EPSDT, inpatient admissions for
ambulatory care sensitive conditions, and
emergency department use).
Special requirements for selection of primary
care physician
Requires special payment to Family Centered
Care and Medical Homes
Required to establish a contract between MHP
and Local Public Health Departments
Encourage to conduct special education and
outreach to CSHCS enrollees
Must provide Transportation, Meals and Lodging
to all covered services
63
The CSHCS population will be included in the PMR and
HEDIS data sets as they meet the specifications for
inclusion
The state currently conducts a Child CAHPS every
other year:
Child CAHPS for the MHP child population
Children with Chronic Conditions (CCC) CAHPs for
the CSHCS population
Both CAHPS were conducted in 2012 and will be
conducted again in 2014
We will be able to compare the results of satisfaction in
the FFS CSHCS environment and managed care
DCH will develop CSHCS-specific measures over the
next fiscal year
