17 POPULATION HEALTH INTEGRATION 17

18 Membership 93 social/advocates, 21 health care system organizations, 45 state staff and 5 managed care providers Work Group statistics (including subcommittees) 295 stakeholders 2155 organizations 222 meetings; 33 hours 268 responses to 1st Stakeholders Survey 232 responses to 2nd Stakeholder s Survey 18

19 IMPORTANT CONSIDERATIONS FOR THE IMMEDIATE AND MID-TERM FUTURE In recognizing that additional public health resources and improved integration are necessary to catalyze the efforts of isolated health systems and local communities, the Population Health Integration Work Group identified the following important considerations for the future: Managed care plans should be engaged further in discussions regarding the creation of a bonus pool for health plans. The members of the Expanding Maternal Child Home Visits Subcommittee should be utilized as resources, many of whom are also members of the Sustainability Workgroup of the Home Visiting Task Force, and remain committed to moving this effort forward. Each RHIC entity will likely have resources that can be leveraged towards the common work of the Collaboratives. The State can facilitate this by requiring or encouraging meaningful participation in RHICs. Resources such as pay for success funding is something that might be very effective for pilots that wish to engage in Asset Based Community Development and receive funding based on the results that their programs can demonstrate. 19

20 20 ISSUES UNDER DISCUSSION BY STAKEHOLDERS Asset Based Community Development Issues discussed were focused on: social determinants of health; the communities we wish to serve; building networks within the communities; addressing various geographic areas; and community based capacity in Illinois. Creation of Bonus Pool for Health Plans Subcommittee Providing incentives for population health interventions. Bonus pool dollars should be structured in a way that does not duplicate payment for services that are already reimbursable through Medicaid fee-for-service payments. Medicaid managed care plans must be at the table in these discussions. Expanding Maternal Child Home Visits Subcommittee A number of programs have been providing services that improve health outcomes and should coordinate with existing providers. The State needs to develop a strategy through which the State could allow home visitors to bill Medicaid for providing home visiting services. Regional Health Improvement Collaboratives Subcommittee Foundational principles included elements of: multi-sectoral representation that was not dominated by any specific discipline, active participation, and accountability.

24 Important considerations for the immediate and mid-term future In response to changing population and patient needs, federal and state health care reforms, and innovations in delivery models, professional practices, and technology, the work group recognizes the need to use professional and paraprofessional health care workers in new roles with different skill requirements. To that end, the following are important considerations for the future: Provide public funding critical to the innovation and sustainability of any pipelines and pathways strategy. Matching public resources to private resources that are aligned with meeting health workforce needs in high need areas to provide financial incentives. Capitalize on new federal funding streams for telehealth projects. Leverage colleges that currently and/or will train Community Health Workers, as well as community based organizations, community health centers, hospitals and other facilities that will employ CHWs. Leverage scope of practice resources including trade associations that represent the health professionals, health care system employers, and other industry commissions that evaluation. quality measures for health professionals. 24

25 ISSUES UNDER DISCUSSION BY STAKEHOLDERS Financial Incentives Subcommittee All recommendations are meant to help Illinois grow the health workforce to meet residents needs, ensure efficient health workforce planning, and better understand where there are provider shortages across different geographies. Health Workforce Expansion Subcommittee Health care reform is focused on outreach and prevention. Community Health Workers can provide an entry route for low-skilled workers to health professions. Workplace shortages create increasing pressure to have health professionals practice at the top of their license. Pipelines and Pathways Subcommittee Employers need to be included as partners in training and investment in pipeline and pathways programs. There are a number of barriers for health care professions to licensing, employment, and eligibility requirements for pipelines and pathways programs. Telehealth Subcommittee There is a need for a neutral platform to bring stakeholders together to learn from each other, to better understand telehealth obstacles, to explore ways to eliminate those obstacles and to coordinate their future telehealth plans. 25
