Alaska’s Behavioral Health System Presentation to the Idaho Behavioral Health Transformation Workgroup March 24 th 2010 Bill Hogan Commissioner Commissioner Alaska Department of Health and Social Services

Alaska’s Behavioral Health System Alaska Department of Health and Social Services is a ….. “Super Agency” Broad Authority and Responsibility Public Health, Pioneer Homes, Children’s Services, Juvenile Justice, Public Assistance, Senior and Disabilities Services, Medicaid, Faith Based and Community Initiatives – as well as Behavioral Health

Alaska’s Behavioral Health System In 2003, Alaska reorganized it’s Department of Health and Social Services through Executive Order The previously separate Divisions of Mental Health and Alcoholism and Drug Abuse were merged to create a new Division of Behavioral Health (and Responsibility for “Managing” Behavioral Health Medicaid was given to this Division)

Alaska’s Behavioral Health System Financial Assistance from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) Co-occurring Disorders State Incentive Grant (Co-Sig) Created an “Integrated” Behavioral Health Division - using Vision, Mission and Values development and creation of a “Functional” Organizational Structure with Input from all Staff

Alaska’s Behavioral Health System Created a Planning Structure to Develop an “Integrated” Behavioral Health Services Delivery System Our Vision for this System – “All Alaskans with Behavioral Health needs will be provided Services that are – Welcoming, Accessible, Integrated, Continuous and Comprehensive” ……..

Alaska’ Behavioral Health System …… whether they have Mental Health needs, Substance Use Disorders, or both ……. and the System …. shall be Cost Effective; Administratively Efficient; Sensitive to Local Needs; Maximize Consumer, Family and Provider Participation; and has the capacity to Continuously Improve Quality and Track Outcomes

Alaska’s Behavioral Health System System “Transformation” overseen by “Executive Steering Committee” comprised of: Governor’s Office Representative Department of Health and Social Services Commissioner’s Office Representative Director of the Division of Behavioral Health Chief Executive Officer of the Alaska Mental Health Trust Authority Executive Directors of the Alaska Mental Health Board and the Advisory Board on Alcoholism and Drug Abuse

Alaska’s Behavioral Health System Structure included an “External Implementation Task Force” Responsibility to work collaboratively as “Agents of Change” Membership included: Consumers Families Advocates Providers Hospitals and Community Health Centers University Representatives from Child Welfare, Juvenile Justice, Senior Services, Developmental Disabilities, Long Term Care Programs, Alaska Native Health Community, Corrections, the Court System, etc. Key Legislators

Alaska’s Behavioral Health System Continuum of Care from Prevention and Early Intervention through Treatment and Recovery From our Smallest Villages to our “Hub” Communities to our largest Cities Levels of Care vis a vis Size of Community

Alaska’s Behavioral Health System Model Behavioral Health Statute Integrated Behavioral Health Regulations and Standards Define the Target Population and Design the System Workforce – Competencies and Credentialing Financing Information Exchange - AKAIMS Outcomes Identification and System Performance – Consumer, Program, Community and State Levels – Client Status Review (CSR)

Alaska’s Behavioral Health System Clinical Integration “No Wrong Door” Standardized Screening – 58% of those screened in FY ’09 have a “Co-occurring Disorder” ….. 40% have a Brain Injury! Comprehensive Treatment Plan – receiving services for both problems simultaneously Services provided by the same agency where practical and feasible

Alaska’s Behavioral Health System Administrative Integration Assist Communities/Agencies in Designing the Administrative Infrastructure needed to support Clinical Integration Eliminate Administrative Inefficiencies Consolidate Administrative Functions where Feasible Merge agencies where appropriate

Alaska’s Behavioral Health System What’s Worked: Governor’s Office and Legislative Involvement Broad Stakeholder Involvement – both in Policy Making and Advisory Roles Clearly defining what Integration Means for the Consumer and Family Standardized Screening – Alaska Screening Tool Leadership and Perseverance Outcome Focus Change Agent Training

Alaska’s Behavioral Health System What Have Been the Challenges: Managing Expectations – “When will we be done with this Initiative” Fiscal Environment – Limited Resources / Budget Reductions in the first Two Years Scope too Large / too Broad / too Much Maintaining Momentum Other Major Initiatives i.e. Bring the Kids Home taking Time, Energy and Resources

Alaska’s Behavioral Health System What’s Next: Primary Care / Behavioral Health Integration Continued Support for Workforce Development Substance Abuse Medicaid Waiver Alaska Native “Managed Care” Initiative Complete / Finalize Bring the Kids Home Initiative – Building of Children’s System Families First Initiative with Public Assistance, Child Welfare and Juvenile Justice Performance Based Contracting / Funding
