The qualitative measure addresses the recovery-orientation of county programs by requiring the submission of a Vision & Mission statement that supports the facilitation of recovery of individuals with mental illness. The measure also requires evidence of consumer involvement in the development and concurrence with the Vision & Mission Statement. A one day panel review session of the qualitative measure will be conducted in Harrisburg and should last approximately seven hours. Counties that meet this measure will receive a financial award based upon available funding. The review will be conducted by a panel consisting of OMHSAS staff and advisory committee members. Although we are in the process of identifying a date, the review will take place this month. All counties have submitted a plan that includes a vision and mission statement. The other requirements have not been determined. Distribution of statewide aggregate county plan report is scheduled for 7 October of this year. County Plan Update The second measure was the timely, accurate and complete submission of the required Consolidated Community Reporting Performance Outcome Management System (CCR POMS) data. There are 20 county/joinders that have met the timeliness portion of the measure by having 2 quarters of encounter data submitted by June 30, 2006. So there could be no more than those 20 to receive the incentive. Of those 20 there are 3 that have a % of accepted records below 50%. The ‘reasonableness of completion’ of the submissions needs to be discussed with the individual county. 8 OMHSAS FY 2006-2007 Budget Unified System Strategy Community Mental Health Program State Funding COLA, including a COLA on CHIPPs Psychiatric Services in Eastern Pennsylvania is stable at $3.5 million FY 2005 - 2006 COLA Annualized FY 2005 - 2006 CHIPP Annualization Assumes implementation of Structured Treatment Services initiative- October Implementation Assumes expansion of Behavioral HealthChoices Assumes full funding for HSH community initiatives Federal Funding Reflects a decrease in the Community Mental Health Services Block Grant Reflects a decrease in COSIG funding Reflects a decrease in SSBG Reflects the removal of federal funds available through Inter-governmental Transfer 9 OMHSAS FY 2006-2007 Budget Unified System Strategy Sexual Responsibility and Treatment Program (Act 21) Implemented in April 2004 by contracted vendor on grounds of Torrance State Hospital Eight men are now being served SRTP services were transferred to the Commonwealth and administered by Torrance State Hospital (July 1, 2007) First constitutional challenge to the Act- Philadelphia court upheld Drug & Alcohol Services Act 152 funding decreased to $17 485 million to reflect HC Expansion BHSI IGT funding of $12.107* million BHSI funding is stable at $43.981 million (MH: $19.545, D&A: $24.436) HSDF Additional funds available in HSDF ($2.5M) *$3 million in additional funding was provided in FY 05-06; $3 million in additional funding will also be available in FY 06-07 10 Medical Assistance $14.4 billion Medical Assistance (MA) Budget 1.9M individuals enrolled in the MA program; 1 of every 7 individuals in PA 1.1M individuals served thru HC FY 06/07 Budget Updates Pharmacy Carve Out Not Moving Forward Budget Stabilization Reserve Fund Established available to MCOs, Outpatient providers, Inpatient providers and Long Term Care providers BH HealthChoices supported Restoration of Hospital Supplemental Payments 11 HealthChoices As of January 1, 2006, there are 1,162,392 people enrolled in HealthChoices.
