1 A SUMMARY OF MEDICAID REQUIREMENTS AND RELATED COA STANDARDS This tool is intended to provide a broad overview of common Medicaid (MA) requirements in relation to COA s Standards. While there are specific federal and state requirements for every Medicaid service not comprehensively addressed here, this document helps to demonstrate how implementation of COA s Standards provides the framework for establishing applicable systems within your organization and how accreditation can serve as a roadmap for meeting those requirements. Please note that all programs that contract with Medicaid should review the federal regulatory requirements governing the provision of Medicaid-reimbursable services such as Outpatient Behavioral Health Services, Case Management Services, Psychiatric Residential Treatment Centers, Home and Community-Based Services, etc., as well as federallyapproved State Medicaid Plans for additional, state-specific requirements. Federal Regulations and each State s Medicaid Plan set the expectations for the program, including: Conditions of Participation (COPs): Basic requirements regarding quality, governance, accreditation, staff credentials, initial and on-going training, supervision, etc. Service Codes: Service-specific rules including the codes and modifiers. These describe each Medicaid service and answer the questions of who, what, where, when and sometimes how often. Treatment Planning and Documentation requirements For all Medicaid-reimbursed services, keep in mind that: The client must be able to participate The client must be able to benefit from the service The client must be a voluntary participant All services must be provided to the exclusive benefit of the client All Services are Authorized and Re-Approved Based upon the Following Key Components: Medical Necessity Any medical or remedial service provided in a home, facility or other settings recommended by a physician or an LIP with the scope of their practice under state law for the maximum reduction of physical or mental disability and restoration of the individual to the best possible functional level. It is a service or supply necessary for the diagnosis, care or treatment of a 1
2 physical or mental condition and widely accepted professionally in the US as effective, appropriate and essential, based upon recognized standards of the health care specialty involved. Medical Appropriateness Demonstration that the client is at the appropriate Level of Care (LOC) and willing and capable to participate in his/her care. Services may be evaluated as not being Medically Appropriate if the client refuses to participate, demonstrates high-risk behavior, or the assessed needs may be met at a lower level of care. Active Treatment Implementation of a professionally developed and supervised individual plan of care that involves such activities as: Multidisciplinary observation Assessment and evaluation Interdisciplinary treatment planning Evaluation of client progress and appropriate revisions in the treatment plan Identification of discharge criteria and discharge planning Aftercare needs assessment COA also encourages organizations to visit the Office of Inspector General (OIG) website for additional information regarding recent OIG review activities and the results of recent surveys, located at 2
3 SUMMARY OF MEDICAID WORKFLOW SERVICE STEPS Inquiry Inquiry is received by phone, or other means Document reason for seeking services at the requested level of care COA STANDARDS EXAMPLES CM 1 The organization works with community partners and resources to minimize barriers that prevent individuals and families from accessing services. RPM 7.02 Case records comply with all legal requirements and contain information necessary to provide services, including: a. demographic and contact information; b. the reason for requesting or being referred for services; c. SPECIAL NOTES & CONSIDERATIONS Agency must be contracted with Medicaid to deliver services Agency must develop a Program Plan that describes the services provided, eligibility, and certification requirements (if required in State MA Plan) and other state-specific requirements Admission/Enrollment Medicaid eligibility is verified If required in the State MA Plan, recipient is certified as requiring the service Presenting clinical issues screened against admission criteria to make an initial determination of medical appropriateness CM 2 The organization screens applicants promptly and responsively to identify urgency of need and direct individuals to appropriate services. See also RTX 1 and MH 1 CM 2.01 The names, positions and credentials of individuals involved in making the admission decision are documented In many State MA Plans, at least one home visit is required during the admission/assessment 3
4 Service is preauthorized as indicated (medical necessity and medical appropriateness is documented) Additional information is collected as appropriate to make referral decision Additional input is sought if appropriateness of referral (lack of perceived Medical Necessity, etc.) is questioned Referral meets stated admission Criteria If required, state-mandated co-pay established MA set as payor of last resort Referral is assigned to appropriately qualified service provider (Physician, Therapist, CM, etc.) At intake, individuals and families are screened and informed about: a. how well the request matches the organization's services; and b. what services will be available and when. See also RTX 1.03 and MH 1.01 CM 2.02 Prompt, responsive screening practices: a. include screening for level or intensity of service; b. ensure equitable treatment; c. give priority to urgent needs and emergency situations; d. support timely initiation of services; and e. provide for placement on a waiting list, if desired. See also MH 1.02 process The 2009 Office of Inspector General (OIG) Report of a PA PRT cited that this provider violated their own Admission Criteria by accepting a large number of juvenile corrections clients within a short time frame. In their view, this created an unsafe environment, led to an increase in restrictive interventions, and created major disruptions in the therapeutic environment. These findings resulted in a major recoupment of MA funding from this provider. CM 2.03 Individuals and families who cannot be served, or cannot be served promptly, are referred or connected to appropriate resources. See also MH 1.03 Acceptance or Referral Referral acceptance CM 2.02 Outcome of the admission 4
5 documented in client record Deny Wait List Offer other treatment options if agency is unable to provide service based on insurance provider limitations or ability to pay Prompt, responsive screening practices: a. include screening for level or intensity of service; b. ensure equitable treatment; c. give priority to urgent needs and emergency situations; d. support timely initiation of services; and e. provide for placement on a waiting list, if desired. See also MH 1.02 CM 2.03 Individuals and families who cannot be served, or cannot be served promptly, are referred or connected to appropriate resources.

Evaluation Intake scheduled Client or legal guardian completes required documentation: Consent to Treat Patient Demographic Forms HIPPA Acknowledgement State-required preadmission documents CR 1.04 Clients are informed of their responsibility to provide relevant information as a basis for receiving services and participating in service decisions. CR 1.07 Clients participate in all service decisions and have the right to: a. b. refuse any service, treatment, or medication, unless mandated by law or court order; c. RPM 7.02 Case records comply with all legal requirements and contain information necessary to provide services, including: a. demographic and contact information; b. the reason for requesting 6
7 Assessment Baseline client assessment is conducted in accordance with the following criteria: thorough and timely completion by appropriately qualified individuals; legible clinician signatures, credentials, and job title; an assessment summary that contains a complete and chronological description of the reasons why the individual (and their family, in the case of a minor child) is seeking treatment or being referred for services; c. up-to-date assessments; d. the service plan, including mutually developed goals and objectives; e. copies of all signed consent forms; f. CM 3 Individuals and families participate in a comprehensive, individualized, strengths-based, culturally responsive assessment. See also RTX 3 and MH 2 CM 3.01 Personnel who conduct assessments are qualified by training, skill, and experience and can recognize individuals and families with special needs. See also RTX 3.03 and MH CM 3.02 The information gathered for assessments is comprehensive, directed at concerns identified in the initial screening, and limited to material that is pertinent for Most State MA Plans require that the client s need for services be re-assessed on an annual basis. 7
8 results that clearly outline the focus areas of treatment; a diagnosis Common required elements in most State MA Plan include: Presenting problem(s) and history, including the client s, legal representative s and family s assessment of the situation; Psychiatric and medical history Recipient s current and potential strengths Resources that are available to the client through his or her natural support system Client s school placement, adjustment and progress, as applicable Client s relationship with his or her family and significant other Identification and effectiveness of services currently being provided meeting service requests and objectives. See also MH 2.01 CM 3.03 Assessments are conducted inperson in a place of the individual s or family's choice, when possible, and include assessment of natural supports and helping networks. See also RTX 3.04 and MH 2.03 CM 3.04 The organization promptly provides or makes arrangements for specialized assessments, as needed.

9 b. when there is a change in the individual or family s status or circumstances, or a new issue arises; and c. within 48 hours of notification that hospital or institutional discharge is imminent. Interpretation: An organization that, due to contractual requirements, is unable to conduct event-based reassessments according to these timeframes can modify them to meet the needs and goals of the population served. RPM 7.02 Case records comply with all legal requirements and contain information necessary to provide services, including: a. demographic and contact information; b. the reason for requesting or being referred for services; c. up-to-date assessments; d. the service plan, including mutually developed goals and objectives; 9

21 Provider Qualifications Provider qualifications are reasonably related to the population being served and the services delivered Provider requirements and credentials are verified and expected to be proactive with respect to aftercare planning. See also RTX 18.05, RTX 18.08, and MH 10 CM 9.01 An aftercare plan is developed sufficiently in advance of case closing to ensure an orderly transition. See also RTX and MH CM 9.02 An aftercare plan identifies services needed or desired and specifies steps for obtaining these services. See also RTX and MH CM 9.03 The organization takes the initiative to explore suitable resources and make contact with service providers.

HR 3.03 Screening procedures include appropriate, legally permissible, and mandated reviews of state criminal history records and civil child abuse and neglect registries work experience, training, credentialing, supervision and licensing requirements. The lack of appropriate credentials and initial and ongoing training has been a key focus of CMS and OIG reviews. Services provided by a staff member who is not appropriately qualified or who has not completed the initial and on-going training requirements within the required time-lines has resulted in denials of the entire length of stay of all clients that were treated by that individual. 22
