4. Terminology Review:COP vs. MA Waiver COP
100% (non-fed) state dollars All MA Waivers
(Non-fed) + (fed)
Non-fed : Fed ratio determined by CMS
Non-fed generates Federal funding
5. Terms to Know: Fed vs non-fed Non-federal funds
Roughly 40% of total
Comes from State or County
Used to generate federal dollars
aka match
6. Terms to Know: Match Match Source = Source of non-fed funding
7. Terms to Know: Match Over Match / Overage / Set aside
Portion spent over the daily rate. Must use local match to cover cost.
8. Overmatch: an Example
9. Your Questions Understanding & Using COP post-Family Care
COP LTS Planning Committee
COP Allowable Average
Waiver Mandate post-Family Care
10. Understanding COP post-Family Care
11. Understanding COP post-Family Care
12. Side Bar: How to code Mentally Ill on HSRS Code as Mentally Ill with 1st Client Characteristic
Why?? 1st Client Characteristic (Field 8) vs Target Group (Field 25)
1st Client Characteristic (Field 8)
Describes the person
Why the person is eligible
Constant for the whole LTS episode
Target Group (Field 25)
Describes why they need the service
Can differ by SPC
13. Q & A: Use of COP post-Family Care
14. COP 1.67 in Family Care? Doesnt exist
Lose MA eligibility = Lose Family Care eligibility
Could use local funds to sustain
15. The Community Options Program and the Questioned Costs From the audit guide: http://www.doa.state.wi.us/docview.asp?docid=7929&locid=3
A recipient of COP services must be:
BOTH Functionally and Financially eligible
Services that are NOT COP allowable:
Purchase land
Build buildings
Services/items for a person who is/will be residing in an RCAC (Wis. Stat. 50.034(6) )
Services billed but not provided
Administration claims without cost to justify
Services requiring variances:
Services provided in an institution or to an institutional resident
Services provided in a CBRF > 20 beds
CBRF costs over the established limit
16. The Community Options Program and the Questioned Costs From the audit guide: http://www.doa.state.wi.us/docview.asp?docid=7929&locid=3
Program Requirements / Possible Disallowances:
COP care management rate needs annual approval (COP Plan Update)
Double billing COP and MA (Forgot to remove the costs??)
Waiver must be used before COP, where possible
Waiver allowable services can NOT be billed 100% COP
COP is funding of LAST RESORT; Waiver Mandate
File must contain ISP signed by COP participant
COP Care Manager must meet training requirements
Financial eligibility reviewed annually
Semi-annually if they have a cost-share
If cost-share, it MUST be applied to COP services
COP Participant must have been a WI resident for 180 days
COP as match for SPC 509(CSP) and/or 510(CCS)
Use blended rate to calculate the match cost
Be careful that there is no double-billing
17. COP LTS Planning Committee Authority
Policy Decisions
Cost share (deductions)
Program Decisions
Variance approvals
Funding allocation between target groups
Living arrangements
Care plan service limits
Quality Assurance
Post-Family Care Structure
COP Committee still required
Members represent remaining target groups
Authority remains the same
May be a sub-committee of another County committee
18. COP Allowable Average Q: What is the significance of the COP allowable average?
Q: How is it calculated?
COP Allowable Average required by WI statute (COP Guidelines Appendix C)
Average COP expenditure = GPR portion of nursing home
CY 2009: $1,516.02 per month unless a variance is granted under Section 5.09 B.
Over limit? Variance is possible
19. COP Allowable Average Q: What is the significance of the COP allowable average?
Q: How is it calculated?
Calculation
30.41 x (straight COP + match + overmatch + admin)
total days of service
Service day is only counted once
Daily amount multiplied by 30.41 to get monthly average
20. Waiver Mandate post-Family Care Does the Waiver Mandate still apply to the remaining target groups after transition to managed care?
21. The BCA isn't "taken" as part of the county's transition to managed care.
The county makes the decision about how they pay the county obligation. Each year after the county transitions to managed care - the county obligation is reduced until the amount of obligation is no more than an amount equal to 22% of the county's BCA.
22. 90 days before: final transition plan
60 days before: ADRC is functional
TMG/BLTS needs enough time to review & approve plan, ensure continuity of placement and providers
Work closely and communicate relocation plans to the ADRC and MCO to avoid plan changes
Relocation/diversion funding is NOT available after transition
23. Relocation/diversion funding through MA Waiver is NOT available after transition
24. COP carry over is NOT available in the year you transition to managed care
Lapsed COP returns to Dept
25. Contract Cuts During Transition Year: Methodology
26. Contract Cuts: One Month Transition
27. Contract Cuts: One Month Transition
29. Average of COP dollars expended during two years prior to transition for:
Children (< 18 in rpt yr)
Mentally ill or AODA
HSRS 1st client char = MH or AODA (regardless of age)
PURE COP (not Waiver)
Admin added to each year
7% (of identified services)
30. How much?
10% of COP base A/P allocation
Uses:
Assessments/Plans for COP eligible target populations not eligible for Family Care
Children
Mentally Ill
AODA
Refer to Fiscal memo #5
