2 Children and Youth with Serious Behavioral Health Conditions: Distinct Population from Adults with Serious and Persistent Mental Illness Do not have the same high rates of co morbid physical health conditions as adults with SPMI Have different mental health diagnoses from adults with SPMI (i.e. ADHD, Conduct Disorders, Anxiety); not as much Schizophrenia, Psychosis, Bipolar; and diagnoses change often Two thirds are typically involved with child welfare and/or juvenile justice systems, and 60% may be in special education systems governed by legal mandates Care coordinator s time is primarily spent on coordination with other children s systems (i.e. child welfare, juvenile justice, schools), behavioral health providers, family needs/concerns, not coordination with primary care To improve cost and quality of care, focus must be on child and family/caregiver(s) which takes time Customized, Intensive Care Coordination Approaches Are Needed Traditional case management and care coordination approaches for adults are not sufficient Need for: Lower case ratios Higher payment rates Approach based on evidence of effectiveness Pires, S. March 2013 Customizing Health Homes for Children with Serious Behavioral Health Challenges. Human Service Collaborative 7 8 Customized Care Coordination Approaches for Children with Serious Behavioral Health Challenges Care Management Entities Organizations providing intensive care coordination at low ratios (1:10) using high quality Wraparound* care planning approach High Quality Wraparound Teams embedded in supportive organization, such as CMHC, FQHC or school based mental health center, providing intensive care coordination at low ratios Growing number of states experiencing better outcomes, lower per capita costs. (MA, LA, NJ, WI, IL; PRTF Waiver Demo states; CHIPRA Care Management Entity Quality Collaborative states(md, GA, WY); OK) (*May 7, 2013 CMCS SAMHSA Joint Informational Bulletin) Important Points About Wraparound Wraparound is: A defined, team based service planning and coordination process A structured approach to service planning and care coordination It is NOT a service per se The Wraparound care planning process ensures that there is one coordinated plan of care and one care coordinator The ultimate goal is to improve: Outcomes Family and youth experience with care Per capita costs of care health care s triple aim 9 Pires, S Washington DC: Human Service Collaborative 10 What s Different in Wraparound? High quality teamwork Collaborative activity Brainstorming options Goal setting and progress monitoring The plan and the team process is driven by and owned by the family and youth Taking a strengths based approach The plan focuses on the priority needs as identified by the youth and family Focus on: Whole youth and family Developing optimism and self efficacy Developing enduring social supports In wraparound, a care coordinator coordinates the work of system partners and other natural helpers so there is one coordinated plan Behavioral Health Natural Supports Extended family Neighbors Friends Juvenile Justice Care Coordinator (+ Peer Partner) Education FAMILY YOUTH Child welfare Health care Community Supports Neighborhood Civic Faith based 11 ONE PLAN Adapted from Laura Burger Lucas, ohana coaching,

4 Integration at the Systems/Medicaid Purchaser Level: Caveats Research has shown that When adult and child behavioral health dollars are integrated, there is a risk of child behavioral health dollars being absorbed by adult services When physical and behavioral health dollars are integrated, there is a risk of behavioral health dollars being absorbed by physical health services Especially in the absence of customization within the design for children with serious BH challenges, risk adjustment strategies, strong contractual performance measures and monitoring mechanisms Medical Homes All children Medical Homes vs. Health Homes Coordination of medical care Physician led primary care practices Health Homes Children with chronic health conditions, children with serious behavioral health conditions Coordination of physical, behavioral, and social supports Specialty provider organizations, including behavioral health specialty organizations (e.g., not only medical) 19 See publications and issue briefs published by the Health Care Reform Tracking Project at: hctrkprod.htm 20 Analysis of Medical Home Services for Children with Behavioral Health Conditions All behavioral health conditions except ADHD are associated with difficulties accessing specialty care through a medical home The data suggest that the reason why services received by children and youth with behavioral health conditions are not consistent with the medical home model has more to do with difficulty in accessing specialty care than with accessing quality primary care. Sheldrick, RC & Perrin, EC. Medical home services for children with behavioral health conditions. Journal of Developmental Pediatrics, 2010 Feb Mar 31 (2) 92 9 There is a need for more customized, intensive care coordination approaches for children with significant behavioral health challenges. Integration with Primary Care in a Wraparound Approach Ensuring child has an identified primary care provider (PCP) Tracking of whether child receives EPSDT screens on schedule Ensuring child has at least an annual well child visit Communicating with PCP opportunity to participate in child and family team and ensuring PCP has child s plan of care and is informed of changes Ensuring PCP has information about child s psychotropic medication and that PCP monitors for metabolic issues such as obesity and diabetes 21 Pires, S Washington DC: Human Service Collaborative 22 Pires, S Customizing Health Homes for Children with Serious Behavioral Health Challenges. Hamilton, NJ; Center for Health Care Strategies Accountable Care Organizations I believe, with some exceptions, ACOs will not succeed it will be difficult for anything but an organization that has been at it a long time to develop the team culture needed to be an ACO The reason that patient centered medical homes will not succeed is that health care follows the 80/20 rule 20% of patients generate 80% of the costs. Those 20% are the chronically ill, and I don t see how primary care physicians serving those patients add value to their care. Focused factories of care that is a term I use for provider organizations that deliver highly specialized care for a certain group of patients, such as those with diabetes you need specialists for that. They are the opposite of ACOs that do everything for everyone.

5 State Examples Intensive Care Coordination/Wraparound Structures How Embedded within Medicaid Delivery System Medicaid Vehicles Used Populations Served Customizing Care Coordination The Louisiana Experience July 17 & 19, 2014 OVERVIEW 28 Louisiana Coordinated System of Care The Coordinated System of Care (CSoC) is an initiative to serve Louisiana s youth with significant behavioral health challenges who are in highest need and at greatest risk. CSoC is a component of the Louisiana Behavioral Health Partnership. CSoC is a philosophy and approach to service delivery that results in improved integration and coordination, enhanced service offerings and improved outcomes. At full implementation the CSoC will serve 2400 youth. Specific goals for the CSoC include decreasing the number of youth in residential/detention settings, reduction in the state's cost for providing services by leveraging Medicaid and other funding sources, and improving the overall outcomes for these children/youth and their caregivers.

CSA authorizes services, based on the most recent clinical information that is submitted to them. CSA does not provide direct services. Anyone helping children and families may contact CSA on behalf of a youth in need of a referral. However, the parent/legal guardian of the youth must give consent for services. CSA has a dedicated child welfare unit Traditional Services Partial Care, Partial Hospitalization, Inpatient and Outpatient services

8 The Role of Assessment within CSOC The vision of CSOC is to create positive outcomes for children with emotional and behavioral needs and those with intellectual and developmental disabilities by: Identifying the child and family s needs Determining the most appropriate Intensity of Service Delivering the most appropriate services for the most appropriate length of time Using standard assessment tools -- the foundation of the Children s System of Care. Positive Outcomes Appropriate Length of Stay Appropriate Services Appropriate Intensity of Service Child and Family Needs Assessment Tools Intensities of Service (IOS) Inpatient Treatment Out of Home Treatment Care Management Organization (CMO) Mobile Response & Stabilization Services Intensive In Community (IIC) & Behavioral Assistance (BA) Services Outpatient Treatment Assessment Services Access / Triage and Information and Referral (PerformCare) Care Management Care Management Organizations (CMO S) Utilize Child Family Teams (CFT s) within Wraparound Model to facilitate a planning process to address the individualized needs of each youth.

9 Children and Youth Served Children and youth* Up to age 22 With SED or co occurring disorder At risk of out of home or out of school placements With complex needs served by multiple agencies *Up to age 26 at Healthy Transitions Sites Care Coordination Care coordination in the wraparound process is designed to facilitate a collaborative relationship among the child with SED, the family and all systems involved. The Care Coordinator ensures that the wraparound process is organized and integrated across all child serving systems to enable the child to remain in his/her own home community. Wraparound In Oklahoma Wraparound teams (Care Coordinator and FSPs) are trained, coached and credentialed through the well established process managed by the ODMSHAS. Mandatory ODMHSAS sponsored/conducted trainings include: SOC Wraparound 101 Training: This is an introductory two day training focusing on the principles and values of Wraparound. It is an in depth look at the phases of Wraparound and teaches participants how to complete the necessary components including Strengths, Needs, Culture, Discovery (SNCD) assessments, functional assessments, crisis/safety plans, Wraparound plans, and other items.
