Implement Challenges we faced early on 1. Enrollment Strategy 2. 11 th hour rule changes prior to GO LIVE 3. Universal Notification for all eligible clients originally planned 4. BHH Billing process design 5. Coordination and structure to MQC, MHMC and SIM 6. BHH training standards, resources 7. BHH Member restriction to ONLY partnered (MOU) PCPs originally planned
Evaluate What we learned following roll out 1. Utilization and Claims Data - Robust Data Pool 2. Training for BHH Staff Chronic Conditions 3. Competition/Collaboration Dynamic and Service Delivery Reform 4. Rate Setting 5. Differentiation of Services, Target population, goals and transition criteria/structure 5. The model works!
