  1. New York State Health Homes Phase I Implementation UpdateStatewide Webinar Presented by: New York State Department of Health December 9, 2011

  2. Health Homes Phase I • Applications reviewed for: • Meeting Provider Qualifications and Standards and providing adequate choice within Health Home partnerships • Care Management “Bandwidth” ability to meet needs of all facets of complex populations (e.g., Mental Health, Housing, Substance Use Disorder, etc.) • Promoting the State vision to minimize silos and concentrate volume over a few rather than many Health Home networks/systems thereby assuring a more limited accountability structure and more financially viable Health Homes. • Creating choices where applicable between institutional lead and community based lead Health Homes

  3. Final Phase I counties • Bronx • Brooklyn • Nassau • Schenectady • Washington Monroe and Saratoga moved to Phase II St. Lawrence moved to Phase III Hamilton Clinton Franklin Warren Essex

  4. Contingently Approved Designated Provider-led Phase I Health Homes

  5. Managed Care Plans Health Homes-Phase I

  6. Managed Care Plans Health Homes – Phase I

  7. Health Plans and Health Home Contracting • DOH will approve health plan health home applications so plans may assist with arranging for health home services. This approval is contingent on the following: • Contracting with State Designated Provider-led Health Homes is required in areas with sufficient approved State Designated Provider-led Health Homes capacity. • In instances where the plan is contracting with State Designated Provider Based Health Homes the plan may: • choose which State Designated Provider Based Health home(s) to contract with. • assist with the provision of certain health home services (e.g., data management) as contractually agreed to by the State Designated Provider-led Health Home and the Health Plan - in this any case dollars retained by the plan shall be proportional to effort. • Plans should only directly provide health home services in areas where such approved capacity is insufficient as agreed upon by the State and the Health Plan.

  8. Continued Opportunities for Partnerships • The Contingent Designated Provider-led Health Homes are still finalizing joint governance arrangements and contracts • The State is still suggesting additional providers and provider types to designated Health Homes to include in their partnership – some of this is necessary to address approval contingencies.

  9. What if my application was not designated as a Health Home? • Many high-quality providers submitted Health Home applications • The State could not approve all of the applicants as Health Homes • Applicants who were not designated as Health Homes and are not currently partnering with an approved Health Home provider should reach out to designated provider-led Health Homes and discuss possible partnerships

  10. HH Rosters and Sharing of lists • State has started to share lists with Plans about their members who qualify for Health Home services • Lead Health Homes will be required to submit a Data Exchange Agreement Application (DEAA) to share lists with their health home network providers • Lead Health Homes are responsible for securing member consent at enrollment to allow full access to member data.
