CalAIM 1115 示范和 1915(b) 豁免
加利福尼亚州获得了实施加利福尼亚州先进和创新型 Medi-Cal(CalAIM)所需的联邦权力,该框架涵盖了整个 Medi-Cal 计划的广泛交付系统、计划和支付改革。 CalAIM 是一项创新且长期的承诺,旨在改变和加强 Medi-Cal,使该计划更加公平、协调和以人为本,帮助人们最大限度地改善他们的健康和生活轨迹。 CalAIM 将 Medi-Cal 转变为人口健康方法(首次纳入 Medi-Cal 2020 第 1115 条示范),并将其提升到全州层面,优先考虑预防并解决健康的社会驱动因素。 总的来说,CalAIM 第 1115 条示范和 CalAIM 第 1915(b) 条豁免,以及相关合同和 Medi-Cal 州计划修正案,将使加州能够全面执行 CalAIM 计划,提供以人为本的护理,整合身体健康、行为健康和本地服务提供商之间的护理协调。
自 2018 年以来,DHCS 一直与利益相关者密切合作,设计 Medi-Cal 交付系统关键方面的转型,以实现三个主要目标:
- 通过全人护理方法和健康的社会驱动力来识别和管理综合需求;
- 通过降低复杂性和增加灵活性,使 Medi-Cal 成为一个更加一致、无缝的系统,方便参保者使用;
- 通过基于价值的举措、现代化和支付改革,改善质量结果、减少健康差距并转变服务提供系统。
2019 年和 2020 年初,DHCS 就拟议的 CalAIM 计划进行了广泛的利益相关者参与。 CalAIM 实施原定于 2021 年 1 月开始,但由于 COVID-19 公共卫生紧急事件的影响而被推迟。 2020 年 12 月 29 日,DHCS 获得医疗保险和医疗补助服务中心 (CMS) 的批准,将现有的 Medi-Cal 2020 第 1115 条示范延长 12 个月(至 2021 年 12 月 31 日)。 DHCS 于 2021 年 6 月向 CMS 提交了两项请求:(1) CalAIM 第 1115 条示范(以前称为 Medi-Cal 2020 第 1115 条示范),要求进行五年续期,并进行修订;(2) CalAIM 第 1915(b) 条豁免,要求进行五年续期,并进行修订。 DHCS 于 2021 年 12 月 29 日获得了示范和豁免的批准,有效期至 2026 年 12 月 31 日。
Since December 2021, CMS has approved six amendments to the CalAIM Section 1115 demonstration, including 1) to permit the state to increase and eventually eliminate asset limits for certain low-income individuals whose eligibility is not determined using the modified adjusted gross income (MAGI)-based financial methods; 2) to permit the state to provide in-reach services to justice-involved populations for up to 90-days prior to release; 3) to assist the state in delivering the most effective care to its members in light of the COVID-19 PHE, and ensure renewals of eligibility and transitions between coverage programs occur in an orderly process that minimizes member burden and promotes continuity of coverage at the end of the COVID-19 PHE; 4) to implement county-based model changes in its Medi-Cal Managed Care program (aligns with related changes approved in to the CalAIM Section 1915(b) waiver); 5) to provide coverage to Medicaid and Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP) beneficiaries for traditional health care practices received through Indian Health Service (IHS) facilities, facilities operated by Tribes or Tribal organizations under the Indian Self-Determination and Education Assistance Act (ISDEAA), or facilities operated by urban Indian organizations under Title V of the Indian Health Care Improvement Act (IHCIA); and 6) to provide waiver authority related to the approved reentry demonstration initiative for a limited purpose, provide Title XXI expenditure authority for health-related social needs (HRSN), include updates to the special terms and conditions (STCs) for already approved HRSN services in alignment with CMS’s housing duration and frequency policy, and other technical changes.
DHCS and CMS continue to work toward additional approvals for equity-oriented CalAIM Section 1115 demonstration requests, including authority to provide continuous coverage in Medicaid (Medi-Cal) and the Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP) for eligible children through age four, regardless of when they first enroll in Medi-Cal or CHIP, and regardless of changes in circumstances that would otherwise cause a loss of eligibility.
See the CalAIM Waiver Issue Brief and December 29, 2021 press release for additional details.
