COORDINATED CARE TEAM
SUCCESSES TO-DATE
• Created Coordinated Care Team to support the Cal
MediConnect effort
• Ability to use historical claims, pharmacy, TAR’s and Continuity
of Care data to start creating care plans even before HRA’s
come in (measuring heavy ER usage, inpatient stays, high risk
medications, etc.)
• In the absence of HRA’s and historical claims data, using risk
profile scores from the health plans as a means to stratify
members and prioritize outreach efforts and resources
• Using analytics and creating dashboard to measure # of
appointments being made, translation of appointments into
IHA’s, enforcing and measuring Model of Care (MOC)
requirements (HRA, ICP, ICT)18
SUCCESSES (CONTINUED)
• Using analytics to create a list of non-contracted providers with
whom Letter of Agreement (LOA’s) have to be established
because of historical utilization and COC requirements
• Proactive systems setup & automation allowed AltaMed to divide
the CMC population by region, by risk level (initial stratification),
monitor HRA status, measure MOC statistics, etc.
• Capitation payments to PCPs for both Medi-Cal and Medicare
payments is simpler
19
OPPORTUNITIES TO IMPROVE
• Accurate member contact information
• Health Risk Assessments (HRA) for all members
• Standardizing HRA for all health plans
• Claims paid amount would further assist in stratifying members
• Prior member-provider relationship sometimes not considered
• Retention of members
20
BEST PRACTICES
• Early planning and training modules for health care changes
• Hiring staff competent in key LTSS programs such as IHSS,
CBAS, MSSP, LTC and hiring Social Workers
• Strong Data Analytics to stratify, prioritize, monitor program
• Ensure Behavioral Health Vendor and PCP in ICT
• Ensure LTSS provider/caregiver in ICT
• Development of Coordinated Care Model to meet the needs of
vulnerable population
• Dedicated SNFist and narrow network of quality SNFs
