  6. Overview • State’s Health Reform Landscape • Parallel effort to MRT for DD population re health care delivery transformation: to provide integrated, coordinated & comprehensive services in a more efficient manner that improves outcomes of the population. • 1915(b) and (c) Waiver • (b): Authorize creation of managed care service delivery system for DD populations • (c): Establish specific supports and services that will be provided • Impacted population: all 95,000 persons with DD in New York “People First” Waiver

  7. Goals • Improving access to services (“No Wrong Door”) • Implementing a Uniform Needs Assessment. • Implementing Care Management and Integrated Care Coordination. • Establishing a Sustainable Fiscal Platform. The system would move from a fee-for-service to a capitated reimbursement system that pays for integration and coordination of care. • Incorporating Robust Community Supports. • Reducing Reliance on Institutional Settings. • Enhancing Quality Assurance. “People First” Waiver

  8. DISCOs • DISCOs (Developmental Disabilities Individual Support and Care Coordination Organizations) = the core of OPWDD’s waiver proposal. • essentially a managed care organization – will need Art. 44 licensure • responsible for developing and maintaining a network of providers, coordinating care of their members, ensuring quality standards are met, and serving as the fiscal intermediary (accepting capitated payments and paying contracted providers). • partially- or fully-capitated • Under either model, eventually the only excluded services remaining in Fee-For-Service would be school supported health, early intervention, and certain residential services (OPWDD ICF/DD-DC/SRU). • private or public not-for-profit entities • care coordination experience • Cultural competence • Regions “People First” Waiver

  9. Capitation • Need to demonstrate an ability to manage risk. • Will cover Medicaid services, including care coordination and the person’s individualized budget under the self-direction option. • Rates will account for that DISCO’s member acuity level. • DOH = rate setting authority, working with OPWDD. “People First” Waiver
