3 Partnership HealthPlan of California Medi Cal Managed Care Trinity County Board of Supervisors September 10, 2013 Presented by Marta McKenzie, RD, MPH, Interim Northern Region Executive Director

4 Today Brief introduction: Medi cal Managed Care Partnership HealthPlan Medical Home Payment Restructure Quality Improvement Enhanced Member and Provider Supports

5 The Change from Fee for Service (FFS) to Managed Medi Cal Governor Brown s February 2012 Budget intent that ALL 28 Counties with FFS (fee for service) Medi Cal would become Managed Medi Cal Not part of the Affordable Care Act Result: 18 counties to contract with Blue Cross and Centene (Health and Wellness California) Eight northern California counties to work with Partnership HealthPlan: Del Norte, Humboldt, Lake, Lassen, Modoc, Shasta, Siskiyou, Trinity Go live date for 8 counties: September 1, remaining now postponed to November 1, 2013

6 Statewide Expansion of Managed Medi Cal Three Models of Managed Medi Cal in California Geographic Managed Care (Sacramento, San Diego) Two Plan Model (LA, Central Valley, Bay Area and 20 new rural expansion counties) County Organized Health Systems Partnership HealthPlan of California (Solano, Napa, Yolo, Sonoma, Marin, Mendocino, Lake, Humboldt, Del Norte, Trinity, Shasta, Lassen, Siskiyou & Modoc) Cal Optima (Orange County) Central California Alliance (Santa Cruz, Monterey and Merced) CenCal (Santa Barbara, San Luis Obispo and San Benito) Gold Coast (Ventura) Health Plan of San Mateo (San Mateo)

7 What is Managed Care? Establishes contracted networks of care Greater emphasis on primary and preventive care Coordinated delivery of health services Primary Care Provider (PCP) and Healthplan collaboration, particularly for more difficult and complex members

8 Goals of Managed Health Care Deliver quality care in environment that manages and control costs Health care delivered is medically necessary and appropriate for the member s condition Care rendered by most appropriate provider and in leastrestrictive setting (largely driven by medical home/primary Care Provider)

9 Benefits of Managed Care Medical Home Case management Coordination of care Emphasis on prevention and wellness Health plans can offer more resources/quality Nurse advice lines Transportation assistance Help getting appointments with specialists Health Education opportunities Quality Improvement Programs Grievance systems Continuous Healthcare Effectiveness Data and Information Set (HEDIS) measurements Member and Provider support

10 County Organized Health System (COHS) Model of Managed Care Locally approved & operated managed care organization County Board of Supervisors approve model and provider, and appoint Governing Board members Capitated arrangements and full risk contracts Enrollment is mandatory all Medi cal members are under one model for most medical care (not dental, AOD, SMI)

11 Fundamental Difference FFS to Managed Care Model of Care Preventive Care Referral to Specialty Care Primary Care Health Home Health Education to promote Healthy Lifestyles Medical Care for Acute Chronic Illness 90% of Members Have a Selected or Assigned Primary Care Provider Site 10% Special Members

12 Who is a Special Member? (unassigned to a PCP) Share of Cost members 1 st month eligible (if they have not picked a PCP, and all members for Sept 2013 in the 7/8 new counties, and all new Medi Cal enrollees in the future) Long Term Care patients Members that do not live in County (out of county adults) Foster care placements Specific Medical conditions (dialysis, HIV/AIDS, CCS kids, etc.) Members with commercial health insurance coverage

13 How the Money Works State HealthPlan Contracts with the State Paid Per Member Per Month (PMPM) Capitation Rate HealthPlan HealthPlan Establishes Contracted Provider Network Includes all willing providers Providers PCP Capitation for assigned members for well and sick care Some visits generate additional fees for the PCP (hospital visit, vaccination) Many other services (pharmacy, labs, medical equipment, hospital care) paid per contracts

14 Who is Partnership HealthPlan Not for Profit Organization Began Operations in Solano County in 1994 Board Representation from participating counties $1.4 Billion Annual Budget Administrative costs < 5% 500 Employees (recruiting addl positions for expansion) Main Office Fairfield Regional Offices: Santa Rosa Eureka Redding

15 Our Goals Create a local system of care for Medi Cal members Improve access to care Focus on primary and preventive care Reduce use of Emergency Room for routine care Improve the quality of care Increase provider reimbursement Increase scope of services to the member Run a locally responsive organization

29 Provider Network What Providers will be included in the PHC provider network? PHC expects that most all providers currently seeing Medi Cal patients will be included in PHC s provider network. PHC s goal is to increase the number of providers willing to see Medi Cal recipients. We have achieved that goal in all counties in which we serve.
