Case Management Centene and Sunshine Health adhere to the Case Management Society of America s (CMSA) definition of case management. A collaborative process of assessment, planning, facilitation and advocacy for options and services to meet an individual s health needs through communication and available resources to promote quality cost-effective outcomes. Case management is appropriate for members needing a higher level of service with clinical needs. Members in case management may have a complex condition, multiple co-morbidities or those that are frail, elderly, disabled, or at the end of life. Members in case management typically can benefit from education on how to manage their health condition(s), assistance in accessing health care services, linking to community resources, and additional family or other care giver support/education. These members mostly need moderate to minimal assistance from a case manager for a short period of time. 9

Interventions and educational programs designed for individuals with chronic conditions designed to prevent recurrence of symptoms, maintain high quality of life, and prevent future need for medical resources by using an integrated, comprehensive approach to healthcare.

Health and Wellness Designed to address the health status of our members across the continuum of health from wellness to the management of one or more chronic conditions.

Standards of Care Sunshine Health focuses on collaborating with providers to ensure the best care and outcomes possible, and coordination with our ICM/CC staff is imperative. As an NCQA accredited organization, Sunshine Health adheres to HEDIS seven day follow up measures when a member has been discharged from an inpatient setting. Our expectation is that a member will have a follow up appointment scheduled with a licensed behavioral health professional within seven days at the time of discharge. Sunshine Health case management staff are able to assist as needed with scheduling this appointment. 17
Standards of Care (continued) Additionally, Sunshine Health case management staff will follow up with members after discharge to assist with alleviating any barriers to treatment adherence with this appointment. Case management Staff also provide members with discharge tool kits to provide resources related to mental illness, medication adherence, developing a wellness plan etc. 18
Case Management We recognize that multiple co-morbidities will be common among our membership. The goal of our program is to collaborate with the member and all treating providers to achieve the highest possible levels of wellness, functioning and quality of life.

Why We Integrate Care People with mental and/or substance abuse disorders may die decades earlier than the average person. Mostly from untreated and preventable chronic illnesses like: hypertension diabetes obesity cardiovascular disease These illnesses are aggravated by poor health habits like: inadequate physical activity poor nutrition smoking substance abuse Barriers to primary care coupled with challenges in navigating complex healthcare systems have been a major obstacle to care. http://www.integration.samhsa.gov/about-us/what-is-integrated-care 21

Integration of Physical and Behavior Health Within thirty days the case manager completes an assessment to help determine the behavioral health and physical health needs. When a member has both behavioral health and physical health conditions, the case manager follows the process identified in the four quadrant integration model to assign a primary case manager. The model serves as the conceptual framework for collaborative planning. Each quadrant considers the behavioral health and physical health risks and complexity of the population and appropriate ways to meet the member s needs. ICM/CC will provide coordination of services for members.. ICM/CC will assure member has a 7 day f/u appt post DC. ICM/CC will provide calls to OP providers to confirm appointments are in place. ICM/CC will follow up with OP providers to confirm appointments have been attended. (if hospital has failed to schedule and/or coordinate efforts with ICM/CC, ICM/CC to schedule a 7 day f/u appt utilizing list of contracted providers 23
Different Levels of Intervention Based on an assessment of the member s physical and behavioral health conditions, social considerations, and other barriers, the level of intervention to support the member is determined. This can be: High follow-up at least weekly Moderate follow-up at least monthly Low follow-up at least quarterly From this determination, case management or care coordination occurs. Key Interventions Coordinate care with the member s PCP and behavioral health provider Facilitate communication across member s all treating providers and continuum of care Facilitate appointments for all needed care Educate member and caregivers about their diagnoses, self-management principles, identification of symptoms, and medications. Educate member on their benefits and how to access them Identify and facilitate linkage to appropriate community supports 24
