Medicaid Little Rock Clinic 123456789 April 2013 Arkansas Health Care Payment Improvement Initiative Provider Report Medicaid Report date: April 2013 Historical performance: January 1, 2012 – December 31, 2012 DISCLAIMER: The information contained in these reports is intended solely for use in the administration of the Medicaid program. The data in the reports is neither intended nor suitable for other uses, including the selection of a health care provider. The figures in this report are preliminary and are subject to revision.

Division of Medical Services P.O. Box 1437, Slot S-415 · Little Rock, AR 72203-1437 501-683-4120 · Fax: 501-683-4124 Dear Medicaid provider, This is an update on the Arkansas Health Care Payment Improvement Initiative (APII) – a payment system developed with input from hundreds of health care providers, patients and family members. Our goal is to support and reward providers who consistently deliver high-quality, coordinated, and cost-effective care. As a reminder, a core component of this multi-payer initiative is episodes of care. An episode is the collection of care provided to treat a particular condition over a given length of time. Since July of 2012, Arkansas Medicaid has introduced new episodes, including Upper Respiratory Infection (URI), Perinatal (colloquially, called “pregnancy”), Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), and more. To see the most up to date list of episodes visit the APII website at www.paymentinitiative.org. For each episode, the provider that holds the main responsibility for ensuring that care is delivered at appropriate cost and quality will be designated as the Principal Accountable Provider (PAPs). For some episodes in the period covered in the attached report, you were identified as the PAP. After appropriate risk-adjustments and exclusions, your average quality and cost was compared with previously announced thresholds. This determines any potential sharing of savings or excess cost indicated in the report. Note that all information described throughout your report is based on claims already submitted and all providers should continue to submit and receive reimbursement for claims as they do today. This report contains episodes currently in the ‘preparatory phase’ and so the data and analyses for these reports are historical only (i.e. they are not data from the time period that you will be measured against). To see “performance” reports (i.e., containing episodes eligible for gain or risk sharing) for episodes launched earlier, log onto the provider portal at www.paymentinitiative.org to download a separate report. To aid you in your role as a PAP for future episodes, we have been working hard with providers and other payers to design a set of reports that give you detailed data about the quality and cost of your care as well as how this compares with previously announced thresholds and the range of performance of other providers. As each payer will send a report covering their patients, you may receive similar reports from Arkansas Blue Cross Blue Shield and / or QualChoice. We encourage you to log onto the provider portal to access your current and previous ‘preparatory period’ and ‘performance period’ reports. As a PAP for select episodes, you should begin using this portal to enter selected quality metrics for each patient with an episode of care starting. To see which episodes have quality metrics linked to gain sharing visit the APII website. We have been working diligently to solicit feedback from the provider community and will continue in our efforts to respond to all questions, comments and concerns raised in a timely and consistent manner. For answers to frequently asked questions regarding the initiative and episodes, please refer to the payment initiative website (www.paymentinitiative.org) You can also call us at 1-866-322-4696 or locally at 501-301-8311 with questions or email ARKPII@hp.com. Additionally, be sure to check the website regularly for updates on upcoming informational WebEx sessions, other resources, or to sign up for alerts.
