Case Management Plan with Goals Short and Long Term Goals: Upon completion of the HRA and the welcome call, the Care coordinator works with the beneficiary to develop short term goals (ones that can be achieved with 3 6 months) and long term goals (ones can be achieved within 9 12 months). The goals are mutually agreed upon with the Care Coordinator, the beneficiary and with consultation with the PCP. These goals are based on the immediate needs identified by the beneficiary including beneficiary preferences for care, as well as their future goals to improve their health status. These goals include the members life goals Additional Resources: When completing the care plan, at times additional resources may be identified during the care plan development. For example, for those that are at risk for falls or have mobility issues the additional resources may include PT, a home safety evaluation, and vision and hearing testing in order to successfully address the plan of care. These additional resources are communicated to the PCP by the Care Manager. Transition of Care Plan, when a beneficiary s care is transitioned to another setting, such as transfer to hospital or skilled nursing facility the care plan is adjusted to reflect their current environment and outcome possibilities. For example when a home bound beneficiary is transitioned to a skilled nursing facility, the plan of care will be adjusted to include elements of care in that setting and include discharge goals and outcomes and associated time frames. Near End of Life Issues: the plan of care in CCMS includes the documentation of completion of the beneficiary s Advance Directives and Power of Attorney. Add on services include MMAP counselors, hospice counselors, and other disease related foundations. Barriers: lack of understanding, motivation to change, financial, transportation In order to help beneficiaries understand the plan of care, the Care Coordinators spend time on the phone discussing the plan of care and send them the ICT brochure. It is written at a 6th grade reading level to assist in the comprehension of the information. The beneficiary receives a welcome packet that informs them of the Medicare and Medicaid benefits. They receive a welcome call from the Customer Service Representatives who answer their questions and discuss the Medicaid and Medicare benefits. The benefit of free transportation is discussed with the beneficiaries upon enrollment to assist in addressing transportation barriers. All contacts with the beneficiaries are done to motivate them to follow the plan of care. While their financial costs for medical care are covered through either Medicare or Medicaid, financial incentives are offered for completion of preventive services such as mammograms. Follow up Schedule: documentation of appointments; counseling, specialty physician, wound clinic; etc. to reflect beneficiary s status on adherence to the plan (making the appointments, keeping the appointment and any follow up of appointments) are documented in McKesson CCMS system. The results of the appointment and recommendations made by the referral provider are also documented in the CCMS system. For example, a PCP provides a referral to home care for extensive wound dressing changes and IV infusion of antibiotics. The Care coordinator facilitates the referral for that care and set ups the arrangements with wound care and IV infusion. The Care Coordinator would document wound dimension over time and ensure self care instructions are given to the beneficiary to assist in self management care. This would also be reflected in the plan of care and in CCMS and include updating the PCP of beneficiary s current status. Page 14 of 52
15 Self Management Plan: monitoring of symptoms, activity, BP, blood sugars; etc. Beneficiary s self management is an integral part of the care plan. The Care Coordinator re affirms the beneficiary understands of monitoring their symptoms as it relates to their specific disease process. Referrals to home care are made to assist in educating the beneficiaries on selfmanagement activities such as blood pressure monitoring, sugar level monitoring, daily weights, temperature monitoring, wound appearance monitoring, etc. It includes education on reporting significant findings of their symptoms to their PCP. Progress Assessment: Upon completion of the HRA, the HAP Midwest Care Coordinator works with the beneficiary to develop short term goals (ones that can be achieved with 3 6 months) and long term goals (ones can be achieved within 9 12 months). The goals are mutually agreed upon with the Care Coordinator, the beneficiary and with consultation with the PCP. These goals are based on the immediate needs identified by the beneficiary including beneficiary preferences for care, as well as their future goals to improve their health status. Timeframe for re evaluation is individualized based on the beneficiary s plan of care. Automatic prompts are displayed in the reminder log in the McKesson CCMS system based on the timeframes identified in the beneficiary s care plan. If the beneficiary does not meet their goal, the goal is revised or a new goal is established with the beneficiary based on their input. An annual, all encompassing reevaluation will be conducted after the annual HRA is completed. Interdisciplinary Care Team The beneficiary is the center of the Interdisciplinary Care Team. The HAP Midwest Care Coordinator ensures that the beneficiary has access to and input in the development of an Integrated Care Team (ICT) to ensure the integration of his/her medical, behavioral health, and psychosocial care, and LTSS based on the HRA. The ICT is person centered, built on the beneficiary s specific preferences and needs, and delivers services with transparency, individualization, accessibility, respect, linguistic and cultural competence, and dignity. The ICT honors the beneficiary s choice about his or her level of participation. This choice will be revisited periodically by the Care Coordinator as it may change. The Care Coordinator will include a person familiar with the needs, circumstances and preferences of the beneficiary when the beneficiary is unable to participate fully in or report accurately to the ICT. It is the beneficiary s right to determine the appropriate involvement of other members of the ICT based on the needs identified in the HRA in accordance with applicable privacy standards. It is the responsibility of the Care Coordinator and the beneficiary to set and facilitate ICT meetings as well as facilitate communication among ICT members. LTSS and PIHP Supports Coordinators will be members of ICTs (as applicable) to encourage communication and collaboration between ICOs, PIHPs and other providers. The HAP Midwest Care Coordinator is responsible to assure the ICT process, but the beneficiary may request his or her LTSS or PIHP Supports Coordinator remain his or her main point of contact regarding his or her care Page 15 of 52

Practitioners may freely communicate with patients about their treatment, including medication treatment options, regardless of benefit coverage limitations. HAP Midwest Health Plan encourages the PCP along with all health providers to develop plans of care with their patients (or patient s guardian or representative) since the member s participation is an integral part of the decision making for their treatment and care options. PCP REPORTING REQUIREMENTS PCPs and SCPs participating with HAP Midwest Health Plan are contractually obligated to submit documentation of all encounters (visits) with assigned members. The Plan is mandated to provide encounter information to the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services (MDHHS) and the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS). PCP PERFORMANCE AND PAY FOR PERFORMANCE (P4P) BONUS PROGRAM HAP Midwest Health Plan may pay providers additional money for increasing the quality of patient care received by enrollees of HAP Midwest Health Plan. Payment is based on quality outcomes for specific measures as outlined by the Plan. Each year HAP Midwest Health Plan reviews its Pay for Performance program and may make revisions to the program based on goals set for the upcoming year. PCPs are notified of P4P changes through their contract (found on our website in the financial section) as well as the HAP Midwest Health Plan website. The P4P criteria, Opportunity Reports, and remittance advices for these programs are found in the Provider s secure financial section of the website. HAP Midwest Health Plan reserves the right to use practitioner performance data for quality improvement activities designed to improve quality of care and services and the member s overall experience. PCP ACCESSIBILITY AND AVAILABILITY Every PCP site shall provide twenty four (24) hours per day, seven (7) days per week, three hundred sixty five (365) days per year, and physician on call coverage to their assigned recipients. Every physician contracted as a PCP must be available to see patients a minimum of twenty (20) hours per location/per week. The PCP shall give written prior notice to HAP Midwest Health Plan of alternative coverage arrangements during times of non availability. PCP's should encourage their members to contact them whenever possible, prior to seeking health care services outside of their office. HAP Midwest Health Plan requires the hours of operation that providers and practitioners offer to Medicaid members be no less than those offered to commercial members and comparable to those for Medicaid Fee for Service (FFS) members. Page 18 of 52
19 ACCESS TO CARE STANDARDS All HAP Midwest Health Plan PCPs are available (or will make the appropriate coverage available in their absence) for all HAP Midwest Health Plan members, on a 24 hours per day/7 days per week/52 weeks per year basis for urgent care and emergency care. Appointment Type Standard Description Preventive/Routine Care 14 days of member request Routine, non symptomatic care Urgent Care 48 hours of member request Symptomatic problems Emergency 24 hours of member request Life threatening situations Wait Time in the Office 30 minutes After checking in with the receptionist to being seen by the practitioner CREDENTIALING HAP Midwest Health Plan has delegated its credentialing activities to its parent organization, Health Alliance Plan (HAP). Questions regarding Credentialing should be directed to (313) NETWORKDEVELOPMENT/CONTRACTING PROCESS Providers may join the HAP Midwest Health Plan provider network by contacting the Network Development/Contracting department at (313) or e mail to Provider_Development@hap.org PROVIDERTERMINATIONS HAP Midwest Health Plan may immediately terminate a provider contract, pursuant to the termination provisions set forth in the provider agreement. Grounds for immediate termination include: Suspension or exclusion from the state Medicaid program, federal Medicare program or any other governmental public sector program. Failure to meet or comply with HAP Midwest Health Plan s credentialing requirements. In instances where HAP Midwest Health Plan reasonably believes that the Member s safety or care would be adversely affected by continuation of the contract. Conviction of Medicaid or Medicare fraud or any other fraudulent activity. An exclusion found via a background check DEMOGRAPHIC CHANGES The Provider is responsible to contacting the Network Development/Contracting department of changes in demographics, including: Address changes (additions and deletions) Addition of new providers under existing tax ID Updating providers who have voluntarily or otherwise terminated their contract. Change in Tax IDs, NPI numbers, etc. Updates in billing and remittance addresses Correction of incorrect provider demographic information Page 19 of 52
20 HEALTH SERVICES REFERRALSANDAUTHORIZATIONS HAP Midwest Health Plan has a vast network of specialists and ancillary providers. It is expected that referrals for services are made to in network providers whenever possible. A list of contracted providers and specialists is available online. If there is a question regarding the status of a provider or if it is felt a referral out of network is necessary, the Plan should be contacted. REFERRALS The Health Care Referral Form should be used when requesting services requiring HAP Midwest Health Plan notification/approval. In order to provide a timely decision, HAP Midwest Health Plan requests clinical documentation accompany the referral form to support the service being requested. HAP Midwest Health Plan does not require a referral to a contracted specialist. Only specified procedures require a referral and approval by HAP Midwest Health Plan. (See list of services below requiring plan notification (referral) and approval/prior authorization). HEALTH CARE REFERRAL FORM The Health Care Referral form was developed by the Michigan Association of Health Plans to simplify the PCP s duties in requesting services from all of the Michigan Health Plans. HAP Midwest Health Plan accepts the Health Care Referral Form for services requiring plan notification. HAP Midwest Health Plan expects the Referral form to be complete, timely, and legible. SERVICES REQUIRING PLAN NOTIFICATION (REFERRAL)/APPROVAL (PRIOR AUTHORIZATION) Plan notification and approval must occur prior to a member receiving the following services: Inpatient Hospital Care Chiropractic Care Inpatient Rehabilitation Care Cochlear Implant Skilled Nursing Facility Admission Cosmetic Procedures Non Custodial Nursing Home Care Genetic Testing Custodial Nursing Home Care Home Health Care (Skilled Nursing, PT, OT, Speech Therapy) Long Term Acute Care (LTAC) Long Term Support Services Ambulance (Non Emergency Service) Outpatient Therapy (PT, OT, & Speech) Bariatric Surgery Enteral & Parenteral Therapy Blepharoplasty (Eye Lid Surgery) Transplant Services Breast Reconstruction Vein Procedures (Sclerotherapy, Stripping/Ligation) Cardiac Rehabilitation Durable Medical Equipment ** refer to the plan website for detailed Authorization Grid Prior Authorization from HAP Midwest Health Plan for the above services must be obtained by the member s PCP or the Provider of the service (DME Company/Surgeon). In order to provide a timely decision, HAP Midwest Health Plan requests supporting clinical information accompany the referral form. Plan authorizations will be issued directly to the Provider of Service and the PCP. The Plan may contact the member s PCP or Specialist for information prior to issuing the authorization.
