CMHI GUIDING PRINCIPLES

Illinois Children’s Healthcare Foundation has adopted the following Guiding Principles for the Children’s Mental Health Initiative. These Principles must be agreed to by the Community Teams that are funded to implement their plans.

– Incorporates the concept of a medical home. The community system of care must include linkages to and integrate with a primary health care system.

KEY DEFINITIONS:

Commitment to the Concepts of a Medical Home

ILCHF is committed to a cost-effective, patient-centered medical home strategy whose benefits to children can be demonstrated with empirical evidence. The Foundation expects physicians will be a key resource for identifying children at risk for developmental, mental health and other behavioral health difficulties. Furthermore, the Foundation expects that once a child is identified as being at risk and is scheduled to undergo a full assessment, a physician will be an integral part of a child’s ongoing care, ensuring a continuum across health and mental health services.

What Makes A Good Plan?Nine Considerations and What to Look For:

– Focus and Direction– Operational Excellence– Professional Excellence– Human Resource Systems– Evaluation– Organizational Structure– Management Leadership

– Commitment to the Concepts of a Medical Home– Financial Sustainability

6

What Makes a Good Plan?

Positive Signs: Medical Home:

– Medical providers understand the medical home feature of the system of care and how they and their patients can benefit from it.

– There is a strategy for re-directing a child/family from relying upon ERs and ambulatory care settings for primary care to a medical home.

– The schools and other touch points in a child’s life play a role in helping a child/family establish a medical home.

– The system of care facilitates the sharing of information needed to support a medical home approach, especially the communication among providers.

– There is a plan to link all children who receive an assessment to have a physician integrated into the assessment team.

7

What Makes a Good Plan?

Negative Signs: Medical Home:

– Referring a child/family to a medical provider without follow-up is the extent of the medical home feature of the system of care.

– Medical providers are unclear on how the medical home feature of the system of care works.

– The concept of a medical home is seen as a mechanism to build medical practices rather than as a key feature of a system of care.

– The sharing of information among providers is inconsistent leading to poorly coordinated assessment and treatment.

Funding in each Community Selected for the 1st round:

Adams County – Integration of primary care and mental health services grant awarded to SIU, Quincy Family Practice Residency Program, a designated rural health clinic. Goal of the project is to establish new mental health services for children and adolescents within a patient-centered medical home. (co-location model). To date, the program has served/referred 215 unduplicated children with 1,474 patient contacts.

Berwyn/Cicero - Partnership between The Children’s Clinic and Family Services of Cicero Planning and implementation for co-location of primary care and mental health services at the Community Clinic site in Oak Park- will have the capabilities to screen 0-18, assess and treat and have a solid referral system with follow-up. Program is in its initial implementation phase.

12




City of Springfield - Planning Grant awarded to Mental Health Centers of Central Illinois in conjunction with the Children’s Health partnership: Integrating Primary Care and Mental Health Services and Creating a Medical Home at Noll Pavilion. Based on this planning, Illinois passed an act to create a medical home pilot project for special needs children.

13




Livingston County- Livingston County/OSF Hospital in Pontiac is part of the expansion of Resource Link. The Resource Link program was established in 2005 by Children’s Hospital in Peoria and combines physician training on mental health, psychiatric consultation, and care coordination with large or small practices.

14




Carroll, Lee, Ogle and Whiteside Counties- Grant given in 2008 to Whiteside County Community Health Clinic . The project expanded comprehensive screening, referral and treatment networks between a primary care setting and mental health system. Lessoned Learned: the identity of a rural culture creates unique challenges to overcome. The values of privacy and being independently minded are difficult to overcome and highlights the value of developing trust and rapport with families.

Primary Care and Mental Health What Do Community Resources Tell Us about Communicating With Primary Care Providers?

• difficult to access needed records and forms • lack of response to requests for medical records or

prescriptions for service• spend too much time on seemingly simple tasks– reaching the appropriate practice staff member,

securing signed forms • conflicting information regarding level of detail desired

in reports

Objectives

Participants will be able to • Identify the importance of Integrating primary

care and mental health• Understand Enhancing Developmentally

Oriented Primary Care (EDOPC) and how they work in Illinois

• Clarify the concept of a Medical Home

Medicaid Data Analysis - 2009

2009 = 32%

• percent of providers conducting at least one developmental screen in a year increased 2002 = 13% 2009 = 46%

AccessibleFamily-CenteredComprehensiveContinuousCoordinatedCompassionateCulturally-effective

Care that is:

A partnership between primary care physicians/ nurse practitioners and families

Care Coordination is Key

• Through a Medical Home partnership, PCPs can help the family access and coordinate – specialty care – educational services– in and out-of-home care– family support– other community services

• PCPs and Community Resources must work together to coordinate care

40

Summary• Primary care needs to be included in planning for

a system of mental health care

• EDOPC training and technical assistance improves providers ability to screen, treat, and follow up with children and make appropriate referrals to community resources

• A medical home is a partnership to help families access and coordinate care

ILCHF’s Investment in EDOPCGoals and Objectives

January 1 – December 31, 2011

Establish a policy framework for a statewide Bright Futures (BF) Initiative. Building on the previous work of EDOPC, improve the quality of preventive health and developmental services for young children within primary care medical homes as outlined in these guidelines.

43

ILCHF’s Investment in EDOPC January 1 – December 31, 2011

– Focus training and technical assistance on 4 FQHCs and their individual clinic sites outside of Chicago Metro area who are most likely to attain sustainability

– Complete infrastructure for two of the remaining “hubs”– Offer group regional technical assistance to the 5 ILCHF

Funded CMHI Communities, if requested
