Types of Compliance Reviews The Office of Provider Standards and Review (OPSR) conducts compliance reviews in licensed waiver funded settings, unlicensed waiver funded settings, licensed Intermediate Care Facilities for Individuals with Intellectual Disabilities (ICFs/IID) and county boards. In order to ensure consistency, a standardized review process is used across all settings. Compliance Review a regularly scheduled review of a provider conducted prior to the end of the provider s term license, accreditation term or at least once every 3 years for non-licensed waiver settings. The review is conducted utilizing the same review tool. Special Compliance Review an unscheduled review, which occurs due to identified concerns such as complaints, Major Unusual Incidents or adverse outcomes identified by other entities such as the Ohio Department of Health or the Ohio Department of Job and Family Services. New to the System Review a compliance review that occurs within one year of a new waiver provider s initial submission of waiver billing. Feasibility Review a review conducted prior to the licensing of a new facility to ensure compliance with physical environment standards. Initial Reviews a review conducted within 45 days of the opening of a newly developed residential facility. Initial reviews result in a 1-year term license. Plan of Compliance Verification a follow-up, performed either on-site or as a desk review to ensure that the provider has implemented the Plan of Compliance submitted in response to a compliance review. Advocacy & Protective Services, Inc. (APSI) Program Reviews a review of all six regional offices. An onsite review of all APSI representatives training requirements, as well as a random sample of at least one individual per representative. Documentation reviews consisted of determining how often representatives met with the individual, types of interactions, review of advocacy goals and report timelines as required by the courts. County Boards Accreditation reviews are conducted by the Ohio Department of Developmental Disabilities to ensure that County Boards of Developmental Disabilities meet accreditation standards as outlined in Ohio Administrative Code 5123:2-4-01. Through the accreditation process county boards are reviewed as a provider of service, if applicable, and as the administrative entity overseeing service delivery and waiver programs. Based on the results of an accreditation review, a County Board of DD is awarded an accreditation term of from one to four years.. 3

APSI Reviews During 2012, DODD conducted compliance reviews of Advocacy and Protective Services, Inc. (APSI) in each of their ten regional offices throughout the State of Ohio. During the onsite reviews, a protocol was used to review documentation, interview APSI Representatives and talk with stakeholders who support individuals that are served by APSI. Although each office reflected its own unique approach, the reviews identified some common strengths and areas for improvement statewide. Areas identified as strengths included awareness of the strategic plan, use of an electronic documentation system, training plans for representative personnel, use of medical specialists and regular visits with individuals served by APSI. Common areas for improvement included the need to examine caseload acuity, the need for more descriptive documentation of individual advocacy goals, the identification of trends and patterns from paper documents and a need for additional training in Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) Waiver requirements. 4

2012 Review Totals The Office of Provider Standards and Review is made up of a staff of 42 employees, 29 of which are the Review Specialists who conduct the reviews. In 2012, the office conducted a total of 1,587 reviews throughout the state.

2012 Initiatives in Licensed Settings In 2012, DODD launched three major initiatives related to the operation of licensed residential facilities. ODH to DODD License: This program was initiated to correspond with the transfer of the administration of the ICF/IID program to DODD. This initiative fostered the transfer of licenses from the Ohio Department of Health to the Ohio Department of Developmental Disabilities for 12 facilities that had chosen to remain licensed by ODH. The transfer of these licenses will bring under one department the regulatory responsibility to license the facility ensuring consistency with the licensure review process. HB 487 required that the 12 facilities terminate their ODH license and apply for a DODD license no later than July 1, 2013. As of December 31, 2012, three facilities applied for and received a DODD license. As part of the process, DODD has created a Technical Assistance Team that is providing training and support to these providers during their first year of operation under the new license. Streamlining Committee: In 2012, staff from the Office of Provider Standards and Review began working with the Office of Healthcare Transformation on an initiative to streamline the regulatory review process for ICFs/IID. ICFs/IID are currently certified by the Ohio Department of Health and licensed by the Ohio Department of Developmental Disabilities. In 2013, the Committee will explore the potential of allowing ODH and DODD to rely on each others findings, which could lead to a reduction in surveyor time on site at ICFs/IID. ICF Voluntary Conversion: This initiative gives ICF providers the opportunity to voluntarily convert an existing ICF/IID funded bed to a waiver funded bed for individuals who would prefer to receive Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) in a communitybased setting. Individuals will have the opportunity to use the funding they currently receive in the ICF to fund the waiver. Since the funding will be used for the waiver, the provider will surrender the ICF certification for the bed that the individual is currently occupying. This effort will not only assist the state in our long-term care rebalancing efforts, but will provide individuals with the opportunity to receive services in their preferred setting. 9

OPSR Annual Report Compliance Reviews of Licensed Settings Waiver Funded Licensed Facilities A residential facility operated by a certified HCBS waiver provider, which is licensed by the Ohio Department of Developmental Disabilities and serves individuals with disabilities enrolled in a Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waiver program. The Ohio Revised Code, Section 5123.19, mandates reviews of all facilities licensed by the department. The review results in the licensee being issued a license to operate the facility. A facility may receive a 1, 2 or 3-year term license based on the outcome of the review. Intermediate Care Facility for Individuals with Developmental Disabilities (ICF/IID) A residential facility, which is licensed by the Ohio Department of Developmental Disabilities and certified by the Ohio Department of Health. The Ohio Revised Code, Section 5123.19, mandates reviews of all facilities licensed by the department. The review results in the licensee being issued a license to operate the facility. A facility may receive a 1, 2 or 3-year term license based on the outcome of the review. In 2012, there were 1,095 licensed facilities in operation. Those facilities were categorized as: 10 Developmental Centers 421 ICF/IID Facilities 664 Non-ICF/IID Facilities 10

OPSR Annual Report Compliance Reviews of Licensed Settings Between January 1, and December 31, 2012, the department conducted 435 compliance reviews in licensed settings. Of the 435 compliance reviews conducted during 2012, 401 were regular compliance reviews, 26 were initial reviews, and 8 were special reviews. 6% 92% 2% Compliance Reviews Initial Compliance Reviews Special Reviews Compliance Reviews * 401 Initial Reviews 26 Special Reviews 8 Total 435 * Result in a 1, 2 or 3-year term license 11

A facility undergoing an Initial Review will only be issued a one year term license. 12

DEVELOPMENT The State of Ohio has capped the maximum number of licensed beds available in the state. There are no new beds available for development, but existing beds can undergo changes such as relocation, change of ownership and increases and decreases in the capacity of a facility. The Ohio Department of Developmental Disabilities is committed to the vision of communitybased services for individuals with developmental disabilities and has worked hand in hand with providers to assist in the evaluation of development proposals. In 2012, OPSR processed 64 of these types of developments. For each development that resulted in the licensed beds being moved to another location, DODD is required to complete a feasibility review to ensure that the new facility meets the physical environment requirements outlined in the Ohio Administrative Code. In 2012, OPSR completed 16 feasibility reviews. 32% 11% 2% 5% 30% 20% Change of Ownership Relocations Decrease Increase Change of Ownership & Relocation New Action Table Decrease in Capacity 21 Relocations (entire facility relocates to a new location) 19 Change of Ownerships 13 Increase in Capacity 6 New * 3 Change of Ownership & Relocation 1 Consolidations** 1 Total 64 * New = Facilities previously licenses by Ohio Dept. of Health ** Consolidations = consolidation of previously separately licensed buildings on the same campus 13

OPSR Annual Report Compliance Reviews of Community-Based Waiver Services A variety of Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) are provided in the homes and family homes of waiver recipients. Certified HCBS Waiver Providers deliver Homemaker Personal Care, Transportation, Adult Day Services and ancillary services such as Environmental Modifications, Social Work, Nutrition and Adaptive Equipment. Compliance reviews for HCBS providers are conducted by the Ohio Department of Developmental Disabilities and by the County Boards of Developmental Disabilities. Ohio Administrative Code 5123:2-9-08 requires certified HCBS providers to be reviewed once during the period of certification to ensure compliance with continuing certification standards of the services provided. In 2012, the department conducted 1,134 regular and special compliance reviews of both Agency and Independent Providers in non-licensed settings. In 2012, there were 414 newly certified providers subject to review within the year after first billing. Of that total, 379 were reviewed, of which 99% were conducted within the year. Thirty-seven providers were revoked or relinquished their certification. 32% Type of Providers Independent Provider Agency 68% Agency Reviews 359 Independent Provider Reviews 775 Total Reviews 1,134 Type of Reviews 97% 3% Regular Special Regular Reviews 1,095 Special Reviews 39 Total Reviews 1,134 14

DODD shares the responsibility for conducting compliance reviews of certified waiver providers with the county boards. DODD is also required to train all county board reviewers before they conduct compliance reviews. During the beginning of 2012, DODD trained county board reviewers on the new compliance review process and updated compliance tools, with the expectation that the new process would be used for 2012 reviews. The outcomes of the compliance reviews conducted by county boards during 2012 were comparable to the results of reviews conducted by DODD.

Adult Day Services Adult Day Service includes Adult Day Support, Vocational Habilitation, Supported Employment and Non-Medical Transportation. These services have provided individuals in Ohio with greater options for day services and employment; the opportunities and creative service ideas continue to grow. Adult Day Service providers are reviewed by OPSR staff only. In 2012, OPSR conducted 1,134 reviews of both Agency and Independent Providers in non-licensed settings. Of that total, 43 included a review of providers who exclusively deliver Day Services. Issues discovered during reviews of Adult Day Services in 2012 identified the following trends: Service plan does not clearly identify service needs, supervision levels or outcomes Physical Environment 16

OPSR Annual Report Compliance Reviews of County Boards of DD County Boards of DD the County Boards have administrative oversight responsibilities for the delivery of services to individuals with disabilities in each county of the state. In addition to administrative oversight, a County Board of DD may also be a certified HCBS waiver provider of adult day services to individuals with developmental disabilities within the county. The administrative oversight of the delivery of services is reviewed for all County Boards of DD and for those County Boards which are also certified as an HCBS waiver provider. The County Board undergoes the same review process as any certified provider of waiver services when providing Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) services. Eighteen counties were reviewed in 2012. The results of those surveys are as follows: ACCREDITATION TERMS ISSUED FOR COUNTY BOARDS OF DD 10 8 7 6 # of Years 6 4 3 2 1 1 0 0 0 5 Year 4 year 3 year 2 year 1 year Decision Abeyance Pending 17

ADVERSE OUTCOMES Medicaid Fraud The Ohio Department of Developmental Disabilities is committed to identifying and eliminating fraud. We view it as our collective responsibility to safeguard the limited resources available to Ohio Medicaid recipients. Providers are responsible for ensuring that Medicaid billings are accurate and that they are only billing for services for which they are authorized through the Individual Service Plan (ISP) and have provided. The County Boards and Councils of Government (COGs) provide local oversight and monitoring to ensure services are provided in accordance with the plan. Additional oversight is provided by the Department. The Department receives referral information regarding possible fraudulent activity and presents it to the Office of the Attorney General through bi-weekly Medicaid Fraud Control Unit Meetings. In 2012, seven DODD certified providers were convicted of Medicaid fraud, which matches the previous year s number. Additionally, DODD made nine referrals to the Attorney General s Office for possible fraudulent activities. A conviction of Medicaid fraud results in revocation of the provider s certification and/ or license. Suspension, Revocation and Abeyance The Department of Developmental Disabilities is committed to educating providers of the standards that must be followed and assisting them in maintaining compliance with rules through technical assistance and support. However, in some cases when good cause exists, the Department may initiate sanctions against a provider. Suspension or revocation proceedings of a provider s certification(s) or license(s) may be initiated if the Department finds one or more of the following: Substantial violation(s) of applicable requirements when violation(s) present a risk to an individual's health and welfare A pattern of non-compliance with either plans of compliance that have been accepted by the county board or those plans of compliance that the department has approved in accordance with this rule A pattern of continuing non-compliance with applicable requirements A licensed provider has had their license revoked by the licensing authority Other good cause, including misfeasance, malfeasance, nonfeasance, confirmed abuse or neglect, financial irresponsibility, or other conduct the director determines is injurious to individuals being served Placement on the Abuser Registry Conviction of Medicaid Fraud 18
