7 Duals Demonstration
8 Duals Demonstration Overview National pilot program: For people who have Medicare and Medi-Cal ( Medi-Medi or dual ) Focuses on making it easier to get available services by combining Medicare and Medi-Cal into a single health plan and creating one accountable entity to coordinate care Jointly run by CMS and the states: California applied and was one of 15 states chosen Coordinated Care Initiative gives California authority to participate in pilot California selected demonstration sites based on: Experience in providing services to dual eligibles Well-established partnerships among county agencies, providers and health plan Demonstrated ability to create an integrated and coordinated system of care 8
9 Duals Demonstration Overview Orange County selected as a demonstration site: CalOptima Board of Directors gave authority to proceed with application process Board asked staff to collaborate with Provider Advisory Committee and Member Advisory Committee to seek input and recommendations from stakeholders Provider Stakeholder Workgroup: Open to any provider stakeholder Member Stakeholder Workgroup: Open to any member stakeholder Behavioral Health Workgroup: Orange County Health Care Agency and CalOptima IHSS Workgroup: Social Services Agency, Public Authority and CalOptima Board will make final decision to participate in Duals Demonstration when final program details are released 9
10 Duals Demonstration Goals Coordinate Medicare and Medi-Cal benefits Ensure access to care across all settings, including home care and long-term care as appropriate Maximize the ability of duals to remain in their homes and community Increase availability, access and coordination of home- and community-based alternatives Preserve and enhance the ability for members to self-direct their care in a compassionate environment 10
11 Dual Eligible Population About 1.1 million duals live in California 66% are 65 and older 50% live on <$10,000/year 74,000 live in Orange County; 6.7% of total Many duals have complex needs Have multiple health conditions, see several providers and take a lot of medication Average member has 8 conditions, sees up to 15 providers and takes 10 medications May be culturally isolated or have language barriers In Orange County, 25% speak Vietnamese, 15% speak Spanish and 10% speak other languages Struggle to access health care because of challenging financial and social issues Have difficulty navigating through a complex system of disconnected programs Duals account for disproportionate share of health care spending 11
12 Duals Enrollment vs. Spending Medicare-Medicaid Enrollees Other Medicare Beneficiaries 12
13 Duals Case Studies Earsy, 77, is a dual eligible because she is elderly and has a low income. Diane, 59, is a dual eligible because of a disabling mental health condition. She has high blood pressure and diabetes, which led to a stroke 12 years ago that left her paralyzed on her right side. She uses a wheelchair and relies on caregivers through the state s IHSS program to assist with activities of daily living, such as getting in and out of bed, bathing, dressing, and meal preparation. For years, she has struggled with her disability and accessing medical care. She has had long stretches with no access to a psychiatrist. She went four years without going to the dentist or visiting an optometrist. For Diane, psychiatric services are crucial. She s been looking for a therapist and a doctor to monitor her medications.
