©Truven Health Analytics Inc. All Rights Reserved. 2 Approximately 450,000 People are Eligible for CHC. 95% of Them are “Full” Dual Eligibles, which Means they have Full Medicaid Benefits and Medicare.

©Truven Health Analytics Inc. All Rights Reserved. 4 One of CHC’s Goals is to Improve Coordination for Dually Eligible Beneficiaries Goal 2: Strengthen coordination of LTSS and other types of health care, including all Medicare and Medicaid services for dual eligibles.

©Truven Health Analytics Inc. All Rights Reserved. 5 Why is there Interest in Dual Eligibles?  Consumers with both Medicaid and Medicare navigate two parallel systems that are not coordinated.  Medicare is the first payer for doctors, hospitals and skilled therapies; Medicaid is the payer for LTSS.  Most people transition through hospitals and/or skilled therapies on their way to receiving LTSS. When coordination is lacking, the transitions can be difficult and ineffective.  One consequence of ineffective transitions is people getting stuck in nursing homes. Dual eligibles are more than 4 times as likely to live in a nursing home as Medicare-only beneficiaries.

©Truven Health Analytics Inc. All Rights Reserved. 16 Preliminary Findings from the Financial Alignment Initiative (FAI) Offer Lessons for Implementation FAI LessonsCHC Strategy Use multiple methods to engage stakeholders -Multiple methods in place -CHC-MCOs will be required to have member advisory committees Medicare passive enrollment was confusing for beneficiaries and overwhelmed MCOs -No Medicare passive enrollment– default Medicare action is no change. Enrollment improved with outreach by community organizations -Work with community organizations on outreach Materials were initially confusing and improved with consumer input -Develop and test enrollment materials with consumers Service coordinators were not always well trained -Require adequate training for service coordinators Service plans not available centrally -Service plans will be uploaded into the State’s system

©Truven Health Analytics Inc. All Rights Reserved. 17 FAI Preliminary Findings: Alignment of Medicare and Medicaid CHC Strategy Medicare and Medicaid systems are very difficult to align and take more time and resources than anticipated -“Go slow” approach to alignment, recognizing that it has taken more time than expected in other states -Step 1: require MCOs to have dual eligible special needs plans as an option for their dually eligible CHC members Source for FAI Findings: Report on Early Implementation of Demonstrations under the Financial Alignment Initiative.
