  6. Current HHSC Information

  7. Brief Review Texas Healthcare Transformation and Quality Improvement Program 1115 Waiver • Managed care expansion • Allows statewide Medicaid managed care services. • Includes legislatively mandated pharmacy carve-in and dental managed care. • Hospital financing component • Preserves upper payment limit (UPL) hospital funding under a new methodology. • Creates Regional Healthcare Partnerships (RHPs). • Five Year Waiver 2011 – 2016

  8. Brief Review Under the waiver, trended historic UPL funds and additional new funds are distributed to hospitals through two pools: • Uncompensated Care (UC) Pool • Costs of care provided to individuals who have no third party coverage for the services provided by hospitals or other providers (beginning in first year). • Delivery System Reform Incentive Payments (DSRIP) • Support coordinated care and quality improvements through Regional Healthcare Partnerships (RHPs) to transform care delivery systems (beginning in later waiver years).

  9. Impact on Local Entities • The waiver provides ways for local entities to access additional federal funding: • Through a program and process that is transparent and accountable for public funds. • To help pay for health-care services to individuals who are uninsured. • To help pay for “incentive” payments (DSRIP) for health-care related projects and investments to increase: • Access to health-care services. • Quality of health-care and health systems. • Cost effectiveness of services and health systems. • Regional collaboration and coordination.

  10. RHP Principles • RHPs are formed around the hospitals currently receiving UPL and one of these would serve as an anchor. • Anchors serve as the single point of contact, coordinate RHP activities, and serve administrative functions. • The anchor does not make decisions regarding other entities’ funds. • Develop plans to address local delivery system concerns with a focus on improved access, quality, cost-effectiveness, and coordination. • RHP regions should reflect delivery systems and geographic proximity. • UC and DSRIP pools are dependent on RHP plan participation. • Waiver funds still go directly to hospitals (not to counties). • With an exception for regions without a public hospital.

  11. RHP Stakeholder Participation • RHPs shall provide opportunities for public input in plan development and review. • HHSC is seeking broad local plan engagement including: • County medical associations/societies. • Local government partners. • Other key stakeholders.

  12. RHPs and DSRIP • RHP Plans include: • Regional health assessments. • Participating local public entities. • Identification of hospitals receiving incentives and of yearly performance measures. • Incentive projects by DSRIP categories. • RHPs and RHP plans do not: • Require four-year local funding commitments. • Determine health policy, Medicaid program policy, regional reimbursement, or managed care requirements.
