FY 2010 General Fund Reality as a result of projected state funding reductions – August 26, 2009 DRAFT
GF supports services to the following Saginaw citizens: • Uninsured persons • Persons requiring specialty mental health services receiving Social Security Disability, insured by Medicare only • Persons requiring specialty mental health services with commercial insurance: • Insurance does not cover full cost of these services • Insurance does not cover CMH deep end services, at all • Insurance benefit for mental health services has been exhausted by either annual or lifetime benefits • Insurance has co-pays or deductibles that are beyond the consumers “Ability to Pay” • Persons with a Medicaid Spend down until Spend down is met
Persons Supported by General Fund in 2009 • 2,586 persons had all or part of their service costs covered by general fund • 2,043 adults with mental illness • 367 children with serious emotional disturbance • 176 persons with developmental disabilities
State Rules for General Fund • Medicaid funds cannot be used for anything except services to Medicaid beneficiaries • We must serve the most disabled first, all others may wait • Eligibility is determined locally and based on available funding • Based on the Michigan Mental Health Code the following must be provided: • 24 / 7 crisis screening / eligibility determination • Payment for all state inpatient hospital care regardless of any other insurance, including Medicaid • Payment for inpatient psychiatric care at local hospitals for uninsured / underinsured persons for whom we’ve authorized admission
Permissible Uses of General Fund • If funding is available: • Access to all other CMH specialty services for uninsured & underinsured persons with serious and persistent mental illness (SPMI), developmental disabilities (DD), serious emotional disturbance (SED) • Jail Diversion / Juvenile Detention • Psychotropic medications for uninsured / underinsured persons • Homeless and special populations outreach • Inmate services • Guardianship • Other community benefit / collaborative efforts
Steps Taken in 2009 to Reduce Expenditures / Increase Revenue • Staff vacancies left unfilled • GF benefits cut (Respite per Governor’s Executive Order) • Delayed capitol improvements • Expansion of patient assistance program for pharmacy needs • Training & conferences restrictions • Operational efficiencies • Delayed technology upgrades • Review of entitlement history and improved status by DHS entitlement staff • Maximize grant opportunities • Layoff / Furlough days
Strategies to Reduce Expenditures / Increase Revenues in 2010 • Continue 2009 Strategies • Intensified utilization review in all service areas (what kind of service? How long? How much? - scope/duration/intensity of service plans) • Develop tools to better tie specialized residential contract rates to consumer level of care • Centralizing residential rate negotiations • Review admission risks and recidivism for inpatient care • Gathering data in order to make cut to General Fund package • Identifying consumers to be eliminated from services • Reduce length of authorizations for person receiving services supported by General Fund • Continue to work with DHS on behalf of consumers with Medicaid Spend down • Denying services for person receiving services supported by General Fund unwilling to complete a Medicaid application • Evaluating the cost savings of directing all eligible consumers receiving services supported by General Fund to contracted network providers
