2 Quality Improvement / Utilization Management Quality Improvement Program Total Health Care s (THC) Quality Improvement Program (Quality Assessment and Performance Improvement Program) is based on the principles of continuous quality improvement. The QI Program s purpose is to provide a framework that enables THC to ensure Plan members have access to and receive high quality health care and preventive services that promote wellness. It is designed to meet state and federal requirements and is structured to meet accreditation standards. The QI Program applies to all Total Health Care product lines. Annually, Total Health Care evaluates its quality improvement activities and updates the program as necessary. A yearly work plan is developed that reflects specific objectives, activities and performance measurements for improving the quality and safety of clinical care, the quality of service, and member s experience. Upon request, THC will provide information to members and practitioners about the QI Program, including a description of the QI Program, and a report on the Plan s progress toward achievement of annual goals. Information about the Program is also available on THC s website Click on the Providers tile - under the More Information tab click the Documents and Additional Info link, then Quality Improvement. Utilization Management Policies: When reviewing medical necessity for clinical services, THC adheres to documented, evidencebased criteria based on national standards in our decision-making processes: InterQual criteria for hospital admissions and continued stay reviews MQIC guidelines for office-based services and outpatient surgeries Policies for Medical Benefit Determination approved by THC Quality Committee based on industry standards Criteria is available to providers upon request by contacting our Utilization Management Department during normal business hours of 8:30 am to 5 pm or leave a confidential voice message which will be returned the next business day. Providers may discuss any UM requests or decisions with a board certified physician or other appropriate reviewer. All UM decisions are based solely on medical appropriateness and benefit coverage. THC does not specifically reward practitioners, UM decision makers or any other individuals for denying covered services or care. UM staff identify themselves by name, title and organization name when initiating or returning phone calls regarding and Utilization Management issues. TDD/TTY services are available for members who need them. Language assistance is available to discuss UM issues with members. Call Page 2

3 Utilization Management Programs Disease Management Programs THC offers the following four disease management programs to our members: 1. Asthma (adult and children) 2. COPD 3. Diabetes 4. Hypertension Members identified through claims analysis are sent a welcome letter with disease-specific educational materials. Nurses and other support staff provide outreach and education to help members understand and self-manage their disease processes through health-coaching. The programs are voluntary and members can self-enroll online through our Member Portal available on the THC website. Members are enrolled for up to one year or until goals have been met. Providers may also recommend members for these programs. Contact THC and let us know who you may want to enroll. We will do the rest! Provider Partnerships Help Manage High-Risk Members THC is pleased to announce that we have several new partnerships with community-based organizations that can help reach high-risk members! These partnerships provide enhanced access to health services and quality of life for complex populations by removing barriers to receiving care. A community health needs assessment is conducted to develop a person-centered plans that address health goals and social determinants impacting member health (such as food, housing or behavioral health issues). Members who do not visit their PCP, are non-responsive to telephonic intervention or those with numerous ER visits and/or hospitalizations are ideal candidates for these programs. THC will proactively enroll members in these plans, but PCPs can also recommend members; members must agree to participate. THC will inform PCPs when members are enrolled in these programs. ************************************************************************************* Alcohol and Substance Abuse THC providers with Medicaid members who have Alcohol and Substance Use Disorders can refer patients to one of the Tri-county Health Authorities in THC s services areas: Detroit Wayne Mental Health Authority Access Line: Oakland County CMH Authority Access Line PACE: Macomb County CMH Services Access Center Line: Commercial member in need of Substance Use services/referrals contact Beacon Health Options Referral Line: THC also has clinical case managers that can assist you with care coordination for your member s substance use needs. Call and ask to be connected to a case manager. Page 3

4 Clinical Guidelines Clinical Practice Guidelines Total Health Care continues to implement clinical practice guidelines and performance measures focused on effecting positive health outcomes. These guidelines are meant as guidelines. Individual patient considerations may supersede or modify these recommendations. The following CPGs have been developed by MQIC (Michigan Quality Improvement Consortium) and recently been approved for use by our Quality Improvement Committee: Adolescent and Young Adult Health Risk Behavior Assessment Diagnosis and Management of Adults with Chronic Kidney Disease Access to these and other approved MQIC guidelines is available through the THC website > Provider Page > Clinical Resources. Talking with Parents about Childhood Immunizations Physicians (and other health care professionals) play key roles in keeping parents informed about the importance of vaccination and maintaining high vaccination rates. According to the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services, in 2013 and 2014, Michigan had the highest rate of kindergarten vaccine waivers in the country at 5.9 percent compared with the national median at 1.8 percent. Three-quarters of the waivers were for philosophical, not religious or medical reasons. Three-quarters of children in licensed day care are in centers where less than 95 percent of the children are fully vaccinated, which is the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention federal benchmark. As a result, nearly 45 percent of Michigan residents are at risk of a preventable disease outbreak. Opportunities to start a dialogue with parents about vaccines include prenatal and postpartum visits, where you can provide informational materials for parents to take home and study, or direct them to informational websites. Flexibility in regards to the parents needs and schedule are also important. Rescheduling a vaccine for another day is preferable to not getting the vaccine at all. If parents are worried or extremely doubtful, follow up after the visit to reinforce trust, and make sure parents are aware of the risks to others as well as their responsibilities should they choose not to vaccinate. For additional information and resources visit Parents justifiably have questions and concerns about the necessity and efficacy of vaccines for their children, and they trust you as their primary health care provider to give them accurate information. When it is time for vaccinations, it is important to take time to listen, welcome questions to adequately address the parents concerns, and acknowledge their role in managing their child s health. You may hear questions from parents regarding the link between the MMR vaccine and autism, whether vaccines are more dangerous to infants than the disease itself, why there are so many vaccines, vaccine ingredients, and side effects. The Centers for Disease Control, along with the Department of Health and Human Services, the American Academy of Family Physicians, and the American Academy of Pediatrics have developed a tool to assist you with communicating with parents about vaccinating their infants. This tool can be found at vaccines/hcp/patient-ed/conversations/downloads/talk-infants-color-office.pdf Page 4

5 HPV Vaccine Project Reminder: Both males and females can get HPV. The CDC estimates that 80-90% of sexually active peole will become infected with at least one type of HPV in their lifetime. Cervical CA is the most common type of cancer caused by HPV, but the infection also causes cancers of the tongue and base of the tonsils, especially in men. HPV can also cause penile and anal cancers. Recommend HPV for both females and males. Both populations are in the HEDI measure in doses and done! AFIX Quality Improvement Program THC encourages practices to participate in this program. There are free resources and assistance to help you meet the measure and in so doing, you will be maximizing your opportunity in the THC 2017 Pay for Performance Program. Reach out directly to the number above, or contact your THC Provider Relations Representative for more details. The important thing to remember is to start vaccinations at 11 or 12 years old for max results.

7 Laboratory Policy In-Network Laboratory Policy THC has an extensive network of participating laboratories, including all our contracted hospitals (see below). All laboratory benefits for THC members can be received through one of these resources. Therefore, referring a service to an out of network laboratory is not necessary, and is not a benefit. Accordingly, THC has implemented the following policy related to claims for out of network labs: Any lab specimen for a commercial member that is sent or referred by a physician s office to an out of network lab will be paid and charged back to the ordering physician. Out of network labs for Medicaid members will be denied. Physicians will be reviewed for compliance in the first quarter of Any physician who referred a patient or specimen to an out of network laboratory will be contacted and given a courtesy reminder for the first instance. Thereafter, any out of network lab will be processed and paid according to THC s fee schedule, and charged back to the provider. Payment will be applied towards future claims. Physicians can perform in-office labs for any CLIA waived test.

8 News You Can Use Health Coverage Grievance and Appeal Rights THC adheres to the Department of Insurance and Financial Services (DIFS) internal and external grievance and appeal processes. Patients have the right to an independent review when an adverse determination has been denied through the internal grievance process with Total Health Care. The PRIRA (Patient s Right to Independent Review Act) provides for an external review through DIFS, and members can authorize a representative, such as a physician, to represent them in the process. For more information about this process, visit > Consumers > Health Insurance Information. You can also find our Appeal Process outlines online at Credentialing Process Total Health Care has established minimum standards for participation in its contracted provider network. Providers (MD/DO/DDS/DPM/ DC) are required to sign a contract, submit a completed Physician Credentialing Application and/or allow THC to access the CAQH application online, and must have medical staff privileges at an in-network hospital. Upon primary source verification of required documents, an office site visit will be conducted to assess minimum office requirements, including safety and record keeping. Additional inquiries will be made to the National Practitioner Data Bank and Healthcare Integrity and Protection Data Bank. All of the aforementioned information is then reviewed by the Credentialing Committee. Upon approval by the Committee, which is comprised of participating physicians, providers receive a Welcome Letter and effective date with the plan. Providers who are denied participation have the right to Appeal. Did you Know. Language interpretation services (either written or spoken) are made available to members in any setting (ambulatory, inpatient and outpatient). To obtain an interpreter for a deaf patient: The PCP office must contact our Customer Services Dept. 1-2 weeks prior to the member s appt. to schedule with the interpreter.

PCPs must be available for a minimum of 20 hours at every contracted location in order to see Medicaid members. Page 8

9 Access to Care Standards PRACTICE GUIDELINES AND STANRDS A. Access and Availability Total Health Care is committed to ensuring our members have access to the right care at the right place and in a timely manner. THC has developed the following standards which define appropriate access to medical care warranted by the severity of a patient s illness or medical condition. The ease with which members can access services based on the following timeframe expectations is a quality standard that will be monitored for our primary care physicians: Primary Care Physician Regular and Routine Care Appointments (i.e. preventive/wellcare, routine non-symptomatic, physical, annual GYN exam) Routine Non-Urgent (i.e. symptomatic ) B. EPSDT/Well-Child Guidelines Well-child care and immunizations are an important component of a preventive care program. Total Health Care supports EPSDT Guidelines and expects PCPs to promote and schedule ageappropriate well-child exams and immunizations. Immunizations must be appropriately documented in the medical record and reported to the Michigan Care Immunization Registry (MCIR) as required by State law. Vaccines are available through the State of Michigan s Vaccinations for Children s Program for those who qualify. C. Preventive Health Guidelines Response Standards Within thirty (30) days Within seven (7) days Urgent Care Appointments (i.e. persistent diarrhea/vomiting, Within twenty-four (24) hours high fever) Emergency Care (i.e. life-threatening conditions) Twenty-four (24) hours/ seven (7) days a week at any hospital Office Visit Wait Time for Scheduled Appointments Within 15 minutes, members should be taken to the exam room. Within 30 minutes, members should be seen by their doctor To encourage the appropriate delivery and use of preventive services at appropriate intervals, Total Health Care has adopted and implemented preventive health guidelines for prevention and early detection of illnesses. The use of preventive health guidelines is an essential component to help reduce the incidence of illness, disease, and accidents. Early detection of potentially serious illnesses may reduce the impact of illness on the member and associated health care costs. Additionally, use of preventive health guidelines has the potential to reduce unwanted variation in health care out- comes. Page 9

10 Discharge process Patient Dismissal Policy THC recognizes there may be times when the doctor-patient relationship has broken down and there is a need to discharge a patient. Please be mindful of the following criteria when requesting patient transfers. THC will not transfer a patient for non-compliance. We request that you contact us for these cases. We have several special programs for such members and we will work with the patients to address barriers to compliance with the ultimate goal of reintroducing them back to their PCP. We appreciate you working with us to find the right solutions for the patient. We require primary care providers (PCPs) to follow the following steps to discharge a member from their practice. Note: You may not contact members about discharge until Total Health Care has approved the discharge. Document the reason(s) for requesting discharge within the member s practice record. Document all resolution attempts within the member s practice record. Attach copies of your documentation from the member s record indicating reason for request and resolution attempts.

11 Pharmacy Updates Pharmacy Lockout - Does Your Patient Qualify? Pharmacy Lockouts allow providers to manage their patient s medication use by controlling prescription duplications, drug seeking behavior and cost, while additionally helping to prevent fraud and/or abuse. A Provider may request THC to place a pharmacy lockout on a patient s prescription file for the following circumstances: Patient seeking controlled substances from multiple providers Fraud on prescription drugs The pharmacy lockout enables only specific named providers to prescribe medications to a patient; thereby locking out all other providers from whom the member may seek unnecessary or duplicate medication. THC can implement a pharmacy lockout for all medications or target the lock out to a specific therapeutic drug class. This option allows any provider to prescribe medications except for the designated drug class exclusion. For example, the Primary Care Physician may choose to be the sole prescriber of controlled substances for their member. To initiate a pharmacy lockout, THC requires the NPI number of the provider(s) you wish to include. Multiple NPI numbers can be entered for a lockout. Call the Pharmacy Department , extension 3300 for questions or to implement a pharmacy lockout. Drug Exception / Prior Authorization Criteria THC s Pharmacy Department ensures that drugs provided to members are medically necessary and appropriate. Under the direction of the Medical Director, Pharmacy staff consistently applies THC written criteria when making benefit and medical necessity determinations. The criteria are based on facts and nationally accepted standards. Coverage denials are made by a board certified physician. You may request a Drug Exception or Prior Authorization if the use of other formulary agents is contraindicated in the member, if a member failed current formulary options as listed in the Therapeutic Drug Formulary or the continued use of current formulary options would be of no clinical benefit for the member. Prior Authorization Criteria for prescription drugs is available to providers upon request by contacting the Pharmacy Department in writing or by calling THC at , press extension DEATH NOTICES When a patient dies, physicians have the responsibility to report the death to vital statics with the State of Michigan. For Medicaid plans, the state cannot stop paying a plan for a member until they get a report from the state and the Federal government vital statistic file providing a date of death. Therefore, your cooperation is requested to ensure the appropriate use of State funds for Medicaid. HEDIS APPROVED IN-OFFICE TESTS THC will reimburse physicians for HbA1c testing in the office; however, we require that the results are reported to THC. Tests may be denied in the future if results to not accompany the test. Report with the appropriate CPT II code of via the SmarterHealth HEDIS portal.

12 Pharmacy NDC Requirement - Comply to Avoid Claim Rejection All providers are required to report the National Drug Code (NDC) in addition to the procedure code (CPT or HCPCS) when billing for a physician administered drug on the electronic and paper claim formats, with the exception of vaccines. The NDC is a unique 11-digit identifier assigned to a drug product by the labeler/ manufacturer under Federal Drug Administration (FDA) regulations. The NDC number of the product actually dispensed must be billed. The NDC number is package size and Label specific. This requirement is mandated to ensure the Michigan Department of Community Health's compliance with the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA). The PPACA requires Medicaid to collect rebates for certain drugs. The NDC (11-digit code with format) must be reported on a claim as follows: 11-digit NDC number Unit price (EDI only) 2-digit unit of measure code, e.g., GR (Gram), ML (milliliter), UN (Unit) Quantity dispensed On Professional claims, report: Electronic - Loop 2410, Segment LIN, Data Element LIN03 Paper - Box 24A shaded area.

13 Policy Total Health Care, through its Compliance program and other policies, is committed to the reduction of waste, fraud and abuse in the healthcare system. As a health plan that receives federal funds, Total Health Care is responsible for establishing and disseminating detailed information regarding Federal and State False Claims Acts and related whistleblower protection laws to all employees, associates, agents and contractors. False Claims Act What You Should Know What is it? The False Claim Act is a federal law that makes it a crime for any person or organization to knowingly make a false record or file a false claim regarding any federal health care program. Due to our participation in both the Medicare and Medicaid programs, Total Health Care is subject to enforce the False claim act which pertains to any plan or program that provides health benefits, whether directly, through insurance or otherwise, funded directly, in whole or in part, by the United States Government or any state healthcare system. Knowingly includes having actual knowledge that a claim is false or acting with reckless disregard as to whether a claim is false. In addition to the federal law, the state has adopted similar laws under the Michigan Medicaid False Claims Act (MMFCA). The MMFCA is designed to prevent fraud, kickbacks and conspiracies in connection with the Medicaid program. Examples of false claims include billing for services not provided, billing for the same service more than once or making false statements to obtain payment for services. Penalties under the False Claims Act. Violations under the federal False Claims Act can result in significant fines and penalties. Financial penalties to the person or organization include recovery of three times the amount of the false claim(s), plus an additional penalty of $5,500 to $11,000 per claim. Fraud, Waste & Abuse Violation of the MMFCA constitutes a felony punishable by imprisonment, or a fine of $50,000 or less, or both, for each violation. Any person who receives a benefit by reason of fraud,makes a fraudulent statement, or knowingly conceals a material fact is liable to the state for a civil penalty equal to the full amount received plus triple damages.
