  1. No Wrong Door System 2015 Planning Grant

  2. No Wrong Door System Vision A visible and integrated system that empowers Hoosiers to make informed decisions about their long term services and supports needs

  3. What is a No Wrong Door System? A No Wrong Door (NWD) system: • Recognizes that resources are limited and insufficient to address the growing need for long term services and support (LTSS) counseling and assessment; • Identifies the many “doors” consumers already use in their attempts to access long term services and support (LTSS); • Addresses all populations and all payers; and • Creates tools and training to prepare the individuals and organizations that man those “doors” to provide assessment and supported decision-making to consumers and their families.

  4. Evolution to No Wrong Door

  5. Why Does Indiana Need a No Wrong Door System? Indiana needs a NWD system because: • There is a growing need for long term services and supports as our population ages; • There are not sufficient resources to fund existing portal agencies to handle the demand; and • Consumers need to be met where they are, with information and support so they can make informed choices in order to purchase or obtain the right care at the right time, in the least restrictive setting.

  6. Core Goals of Indiana’s NWD System • Supporting rebalancing of public expenditures to home and community-based services by reducing or eliminating the highly fragmented systems of accessing those services. • Putting the person at the center of the programs that serve them. • Providing systems of access to the right care, in the right (least restrictive) place, at the right time.

  7. No Wrong Door System Functions

  8. NWD System Vision – Public Outreach

  9. Public Outreach & Coordination • The “front porch” of the NWD system • Creation of high levels of visibility and trust • Visibility to create opportunities for proactive engagement with the consumers and public education • Trust that people know where to go and the information received is reliable • Comprehensive communications strategy that keeps all members on message, and promotes inclusion by a wide variety of populations

  10. NWD System Vision – Person Centered

  11. Person-Centered Counseling • “If we can’t get person-centered counseling and planning right, it is very difficult to claim that we are actually meeting the needs of the people we are trying to serve.” • Options counseling credentialing to ensure reliability of information being presented • Requires a commitment to ongoing training and learning • More complicated in a NWD system because of the varieties of people that come through the doors

  12. NWD System Vision – Streamlined Access

  13. Streamlined Access to Public Programs • Universal preliminary functional eligibility assessment for public programs (Level 1) • Final determination of functional eligibility for public programs (Level 2) – may be population-specific • Goal is that people need to tell their story only once • Preliminary financial eligibility assessment for public programs • Final determination of financial eligibility

  14. NWD System Vision - Governance

  15. State Governance & Administration • No one agency or organization has the capacity, expertise, or authority to effectively carry out the functions of a NWD system for all the different populations that will be served. • Agencies to be involved must include: • State Medicaid agency • State Unit on Aging • State agency that administers mental health services • State agencies that serve the needs of people with physical, and intellectual or developmental disabilities

  16. No Wrong Door System Vision

  17. What Happens Now? • Right now Indiana is preparing a three-year plan for the implementation of a NWD system. Next steps include: • Involving stakeholders in an analysis of the strengths and weaknesses of the current system and what the NWD system should look like; • Developing a branding and marketing plan for this statewide system of resources; and • Determining performance measures for the NWD system; what will success look like?

  18. Indiana’s Plan • Adding network–by–network, starting with Aging • Transforming Pre-Admission Screening (PAS) was the core of our initial plan • Still a priority door, but scope is much bigger • Leveraging technology to create portals that can be used in multiple doors and that workflows appropriate referrals directly to the ADRC network • Creating branding/marketing plan
