Health Reform and the Housing System

Key areas of opportunity and planning for the Housing System and health reform: 1. Enhanced roles in helping people get enrolled

in and retain health coverage.2. Care coordination & care transition

partnerships with Medicaid managed care organizations.

3. Potential for reimbursement of certain services under Medicaid

Page 16: Health Reform in King County Housing Development Consortium November 13, 2012 Jennifer DeYoung Health Reform Policy Analyst, Public Health - Seattle &

1. Enhanced roles in helping individuals get enrolled in and retain health coverage

• Community-wide strategy to assure people get enrolled in Medicaid expansion & Exchange will be crafted.

• Potential for longer-term payoff for housing providers→ greater access to earlier medical & behavioral health care.

Page 17: Health Reform in King County Housing Development Consortium November 13, 2012 Jennifer DeYoung Health Reform Policy Analyst, Public Health - Seattle &

2. Care coordination & care transition partnerships for those on Medicaid

• Significant numbers of formerly homeless clients will be on Medicaid and in a managed care plan.

• Over time housing providers will need to cultivate working relationships with all 5 Managed Care Organizations (MCOs).

• Many may be involved in a health home and receiving care coordination & care transition functions • Housing providers will play a critical role as essential

partners in health home networks 

Page 18: Health Reform in King County Housing Development Consortium November 13, 2012 Jennifer DeYoung Health Reform Policy Analyst, Public Health - Seattle &

3. Potential for reimbursement

• Medicaid Expansion provides a potential source of revenue for people in supportive housing who have clinical service needs

• Health Home Networks provide an opportunity to serve people with the highest needs more efficiently

• Opportunities for WA to propose new ways of approaching healthcare through different state “authorities” or “waivers”

18

Page 19: Health Reform in King County Housing Development Consortium November 13, 2012 Jennifer DeYoung Health Reform Policy Analyst, Public Health - Seattle &

Corporation For Supportive Housing

• Develop a “cost case” for supportive housing that demonstrates that housing is healthcare

• Develop a crosswalk of the services provided in supportive housing with one or two possible state waivers

• Keep housing and other stakeholders involved
