PMHP Assignment
1. In the most recent measurement period, if your study indicator rate improved, what do you attribute the improvement to?
2. In the most recent measurement period, if your study indicator rate declined, why do you think there was a decline?
3. Have you evaluated interventions? If so, what did you do to evaluate interventions?
3
Access Behavioral Health
Demonstrated improvement for the most recent measurement period
Peer Transition Liaison intervention is credited for increases in follow-up appointment attendance
However, many of the appointments that are being kept are not within 7 days of discharge
Encounter data shows member did not attend the first weekly group therapy appointment
In some instances, the follow-up appointment the member attended was not within the 7 day period
4
Access Behavioral Health cont.
Plan to implement an additional intervention strategy
Subgroup analysis revealed that the rate of members discharged from one CSU far exceeded the rate of members discharged from other facilities
The Comprehensive Behavioral Health Provider operating that CSU also provides outpatient follow-up services to most members discharged from its CSU
5
Access Behavioral Health cont.
Asked that provider agency to present the provider-based intervention strategy they have applied during the ABH Quality Council (held last week during March)
To the degree that their strategy can be applied by other providers, ABH will promote the adoption of similar procedures

Community Based Care PartnershipChild Welfare PMHP
Demonstrated improvement in the most recent measurement period
Attributed improvement to the interventions implemented during 2011
7
Community Based Care PartnershipChild Welfare PMHP cont.
The main interventions were: Work plan to address barriers to improvement Concurrent review teams Three facilities fully participating in the “Bridge
Program” Outreach to Medicaid transportation services Case managers conducting “Welcome home calls” Updating and increasing the list or providers who
can give appointments quickly
8
Community Based Care PartnershipChild Welfare PMHP cont.
Developed and implemented Webinars
“Provider Focus” newsletter
Increase coordination between the follow-up specialists and the PMHP to improve follow-up and coordination of care for child welfare recipients discharged from inpatient facilities and crisis stabilization units
9
Community Based Care PartnershipChild Welfare PMHP cont.
Plan’s focus for 2012:
Continue Bridge Program
More evaluation to determine effectiveness of interventions
10
Community Based Care PartnershipChild Welfare PMHP cont.
Interventions and barriers for improvement analyzed on an ongoing basis
Data analysts provide monthly reports
Can identify quickly if there are systematic barriers to follow-up appointments
11
Community Based Care PartnershipChild Welfare PMHP cont.
Mechanisms used to quickly identify issues are:
Care Managers and Follow-up Specialists’ observations and reports
Facility score cards
Monthly evaluations of performance12
Community Based Care PartnershipChild Welfare PMHP cont.
Evaluation of interventions to reach goals held in both local and national management meetings
Includes clinical operation and public sector “core performance indicators” review meetings
13
Florida Health Partners/North Florida Behavioral Health Partners
Did not demonstrate improvement for the most recent measurement period
One area’s result remained the same as the prior measurement period
The remaining areas had declines that were not statistically significant
14
Florida Health Partners/North Florida Behavioral Health Partners cont.
Identified through a number of critical incidents in 2011 that additional efforts have been made on behalf of Value Options to ensure continuity of care between inpatient and outpatient providers is occurring
Value Options terminated one Network Provider effective August 2011
Identified that appropriate discharge planning and follow-up care were not occurring
Specific scenarios have been agenda items in Quality Meetings with providers
Targeted reviews and conference calls with providers for discussion 1
5
Florida Health Partners/North Florida Behavioral Health Partners cont.
Interventions that are used on an ongoing basis: On-going discussion with network providers Care coordination with Clinical Care Managers
and Quality Department Care coordination through monthly report to
network providers Referral to Value Options Medical
Management/Intensive Care Management Program
16
Florida Health Partners/North Florida Behavioral Health Partners cont.
Will continue to utilize the current interventions in addition to considering the following:
Outreach letter to non-partner/out-of-network facilities
Network provider survey/record review identifying those members with no follow-up care after discharge from a CSU
17
Florida Health Partners/North Florida Behavioral Health Partners cont.
Evaluated the pre-appointment reminder call intervention
Biggest barrier to a successful intervention is the inability to contact members
18

Specific intervention for Area 2 was the commitment of Emerald Coast Hospital to participate in the Bridge Program
Barriers in Area 4 included difficulties reaching an agreement with the largest inpatient provider in the area
Planning specific intervention (on-site coordination activities) for Area 4 pending results of a pilot program in Area 9
22
Magellan cont.
Specific intervention for Area 9:
Started in September 2011 with the collection of data on the Field Care Worker’s productivity and her interventions in the community
23
Magellan cont.
Plan’s focus for 2012:

Public Health Trust
Demonstrated improvement in the most recent measurement period
Attributed improvement to the expansion of the fast-track “Opening Doors” program
Program available at three facilities In addition, three providers are accessible to
conduct in-home comprehensive post discharge assessments
28
Public Health Trust cont.
Improved working relationships with inpatient facilities
Improved aftercare coordination, more accuracy in analyzing and recording post discharge data
Increased emphasis on conducting welcome calls to members
29
Public Health Trust cont.
Major intervention-fast access to care program at a single hospital
Evaluated success of the intervention by calculating rates of compliance for only those individuals assigned to this intervention
The compliance rates for this group were 98 to 100 percent
Program was rolled out to the entire group
