Any fact scenarios discssed in this session are hypothetical as we all are sensitive and proactive in preserving PHI. State of Affairs: Frad & Abse Focs Media Governor s Task Force Office of Legislative Aditor s OHFC Report Legislation 2
3 Star Tribne Series Part 1: Absed, Ignored Across Minnesota Part 2: Families Wait Years for Answers Part 3: When Roommates are the Absers Part 4: Speak Up, and Risk Eviction Part 5: A Model to Protect Seniors Governor s Task Force (Jan 2018) Comprised of AARP, Elder Jstice Center, MN Legal Aid, MN Alzheimer s Association and Elder Voice Notice that NO providers were inclded? Governor s Task Force (Jan 2018) Recommendations 1. Allow Older and Vlnerable Adlts to Go to Cort to Enforce Their Rights: Older and vlnerable adlts and their families and advocates need a stattory right to obtain redress and compensation for harms inflicted by the violation of consmer rights granted nder Minnesota law, inclding bt not limited to, rights contained in the Health Care Bill of Rights and the Home Care Bill of Rights. 2. Give Family Members and Others Advocates Athority to Enforce Rights Granted to Older and Vlnerable Adlts: Crrently, enforcement of the Health Care Bill of Rights is severely limited appearing to extend to only those persons with gardians or conservators. Nowhere else in law are family and advocates given stattory athority to enforce the rights of older and vlnerable adlts on their behalf. 3
4 Governor s Task Force (Jan 2018) 3. Allow Cort Actions Involving Abse to Proceed After Death of the Vlnerable Adlt Plaintiff: Families or an advocate shold be able to proceed to the conclsion of the case, withot limitations, on behalf of the deceased victim of abse. 4. Give Victims of Abse the Same Appeal Rights to Challenge a Maltreatment Finding: Victims of abse shold have the same rights as perpetrators of abse to jdicial appeal of an administrative determination of maltreatment. Office of the Legislative Aditor OHFC 2018 Evalation Report Key Facts and Findings: The Office of Health Facility Complaints (OHFC) within the Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) investigates allegations of maltreatment by MDH-licensed providers, sch as nrsing homes and home care providers. Between fiscal years 2012 and 2017, the nmber of allegation reports OHFC received increased by more than 50 percent, reaching 24,100 in Fiscal Year OHFC triaged for onsite investigation only 5 percent of the reports it received that year. Office of the Legislative Aditor OHFC 2018 Evalation Report OHFC does not have an effective case management system, which has contribted to lost files and poor decisions regarding resorce allocation. The majority of OHFC staff do not have confidence in OHFC leadership s ability to lead the office. OHFC has freqently failed to meet reqired triage and investigation deadlines. 4
5 Office of the Legislative Aditor OHFC 2018 Evalation Report OHFC s intake, triage, and investigation processes lack sfficient qality control measres. OHFC does not inform vlnerable adlts or their family members whether providers have reported sspected maltreatment. OHFC posts investigation reports on its website, bt the website is incomplete and difficlt to navigate. Office of the Legislative Aditor OHFC 2018 Evalation Report OHFC does a poor job managing its data, and MDH does not se available allegation and investigation data to identify trends and inform prevention efforts. Hosing with services establishments which inclde assisted living facilities are not licensed by the state and do not have the same level of oversight as nrsing homes or other licensed service providers. MDH Response to OLA OHFC Report In a letter dated March 1, 2018, Minnesota Department of Health Commissioner Jan Malcolm commented: the evalation raises a nmber of serios and important isses. In recent years, OHFC has not met Minnesotans reasonable expectations for investigating maltreatment complaints in a timely way. Improving the performance of this office is a top priority and we are committed to rebilding trst with victims, families and the people of Minnesota. MDH s Interagency Partnership with DHS has started making the changes necessary for OHFC to help prevent vlnerable adlt abse and neglect, respond to abse complaints in a timely manner, and ltimately, hold accontable those responsible for their failres in care and protection. 5
6 State of Affairs: Frad & Abse Focs MHCA - the impact on services being offered in private homes and other settings: 1. We spport zero tolerance for elder abse (or of any home care client). 2. We believe there are opportnities for improving reglation reglatory enforcement withot significantly driving p the cost or redcing access to health care. 3. We spport the process enhancement that is being implemented within OHFC inclding coordination and consistency with the MAARC system. 4. We believe it wold be wise to start with focs on ensring existing laws designed to protect home care clients, their families and providers are being enforced (e.g. timely srveys). 5. It is important to engage providers in the discssions related to program integrity and enforcement and, in doing so, remembering home care providers already embody and provide the dignified cares so necessary to those so vlnerable in Minnesota. Pending Legislation... At the time of this sbmission, competing bills in the Hose (Kiel); Senate (Hosley) and by the Governor (Lorey (S) and Olson (H)) Regardless: what s the pblic perception and expectation? How do we prove: 1. Zero tolerance for abse of any home care client; 2. Promoting and improving reglatory enforcement withot significantly driving p the cost or redcing access to health care; 3. Spporting the process enhancement being implemented within OHFC inclding coordination and consistency with the MAARC system. 4. We ensring existing laws designed to protect home care clients, their families and providers are being enforced (e.g. timely srveys); and 5. Home care providers already embody and provide the dignified cares so necessary to those so vlnerable in Minnesota. Clinical Spervision and Docmentation 6
