熱門新聞​​ 

關於持份者每兩個月更新的公告​​ 

DHCS 正在整合其利益相關者更新,未來將發布每週利益相關者新聞電子郵件,而不是每兩個月更新。 這項變更將使利害關係人更頻繁地接收更及時的新聞。​​ 

ACE 認知​​ 

ACEs Aware 倡議發佈了一份新的季度數據報告,詳細列出了 1 月1,2020, 和 9 月30,2021 期間為加州兒童和成人進行的不良童年經歷 (ACE) 篩檢數量。資料顯示 Medi-Cal 臨床醫師 (主要是兒科、家庭醫學和行為健康專業人員) 對超過 793,000 名 Medi-Cal 受益人進行了約 987,500 次 ACE 篩檢。​​  

本報告同時追蹤在 12 月4,2019 和 5 月31,2022 之間完成「成為加州 ACE 認知」線上訓練的臨床團隊成員人數。 資料顯示有超過 23,400 人參加了 ACE 認知訓練,其中有 11,900 人是獲得 ACE 認知認證的 Medi-Cal 臨床醫師,有資格因進行 ACE 篩檢而獲得 Medi-Cal 付款。​​    

行為健康持續基礎設施計劃(BHCIP)更新​​ 

DHCS 透過 2021 年立法授權建立 BHCIP,並頒發 21 億美元獎金,用於建設、收購和擴建與行為健康相關的財產和投資移動危機基礎設施。 為了擴展行為健康設施,資金將透過多輪撥款發放,以下是即將發放的最新資金:​​ 

  • BHCIP 第四輪:兒童及青少年​​ 

Round 4 focuses on children and youth ages 25 and younger, including pregnant and postpartum people and their children, children, and transition-age youth, as well as their families. All applicants must demonstrate how their infrastructure project will expand behavioral health services for this population exclusively. DHCS will award $480.5 million for children- and youth-focused behavioral health infrastructure projects in this fourth round of competitive grants. The deadline to submit applications for the Request for Application (RFA) for Round 4: Children and Youth is August 31, 2022. Applicants will be expected to demonstrate “project readiness”, as detailed in the posted RFA, and will be funded according to which of three pre-construction phases their project is in. Full project funding will be contingent upon completion of all three phases of development planning.​​ 

  • BHCIP 第 5 輪和第 6 輪:第 5 輪和第 6 輪目前處於規劃階段。第 5 輪:危機連續性的聽取會議預定於 8 月 4 日下午 1 點至 2 點舉行,為符合資格的申請人提供直接向 DHCS 提供意見的機會,以便為 BHCIP 第 5 輪的規劃和實施提供資訊。第 5 輪聆聽會必須註冊。如需 BHCIP 的詳細資訊,請造訪 BHCIP 專案網站或寄電子郵件至 BHCIP@dhcs.ca.gov。​​ 

牙科轉型倡議​​ 

On August 1, DHCS will begin issuing final Dental Transformation Initiative (DTI) payments for specific domains. The Budget Act of 2022 included $30.2 million to make DTI payments in fiscal year (FY) 2022-23 and $1.5 million in FY 2023-24. The DTI consisted of four domains to improve dental health for Medi-Cal children by focusing on high-value care, improved access, and utilization of performance measures to drive delivery system reform.​​ 

Domain 1 compensated service office locations with incentive payments for select preventive services if the provider increased enrolled Medi-Cal beneficiary utilization. Domain 2 allowed participating Medi-Cal Dental providers to receive payments for providing services to enrolled Medi-Cal beneficiaries, ages 6 and under, for a bundled service that included a caries risk assessment, treatment plan, nutritional counseling, and motivational interviewing. Domain 3 provided annual incentive payments to service office locations that maintained continuity of care for enrolled Medi-Cal beneficiaries. Dental managed care plans are not offered these incentive payments given the inherent requirement that managed care delivery systems provide continuity of care for their covered populations.​​ 

領域 1 和領域 2 的付款將支付給全州 Medi-Cal 牙科付費服務 (FFS) 提供系統中所有符合資格的 Medi-Cal 牙科服務提供者,包括符合資格的安全網診所(如聯邦合格醫療中心、鄉村醫療診所和印第安人醫療服務/協議備忘錄診所(社區醫療中心)),以及 Sacramento 和洛杉磯縣的牙科管理性護理提供系統。領域 1 的付款將於 8 月 1 日當週發出,領域 2 的付款將於 8 月 8 日當週發出。領域 3 的付款也將於 8 月 1 日當週支付給 FFS 醫療服務提供者。​​ 

DHCS 預計這個付款週期是領域 1 和領域 2 的最後一次付款,另外一次領域 3 的付款將於 7 月3,2023 。將於 7 月 29 日在 Medi-Cal 牙醫保健提供者公告網站發佈和出版一份特別提供者公告,以通知提供者。​​ 

Domain 4, Local Dental Pilot Projects (LDPP), addressed Domains 1-3 through local pilot programs aimed at specific demographics. The goals were to address one or more of the three domains through alternative programs and potentially use strategies focused on rural areas, including local case management initiatives and education partnerships. As of December 31, 2020, all 13 LDPPs concluded their operations and began their administrative closeout phase.​​ 

加強審查設定公開評論期間​​ 

7 月 29 日,DHCS 公佈了居家和社區服務 (HCBS) 設定最終規則文件,以徵求 30 天的公眾意見。這包括 115 家被 DHCS 確定為需要加強審查的生活輔助和集中居住保健設施的摘要表,這些設施後來被 DHCS 確定為符合 HCB 設定最終規則的標準。​​ 

根據 HCB 設定最終規則的要求,州政府必須確定哪些設定被假定為具有機構特質。這些環境包括1) 在提供住院機構治療的公有或私有設施內;2) 在公共機構內,或緊鄰公共機構;或 3) 將接受 Medi-Cal 資助 HCBS 服務的個人與更廣泛的社區隔離。只有在州政府確定該環境克服了機構推定時,才會啟動加強審查程序;因此,州政府向聯邦醫療保險& 聯邦醫療補助服務中心 (CMS) 提交的任何加強審查環境,都是那些已證明其本質上不是機構的環境。​​ 

對於每一種設施環境,都有一份摘要表,說明該設施環境、需要加強審查的原因,以及支持 DHCS 認定該設施環境符合 HCB 設定最終規則標準的可用證據,供公眾在 7 月 29 日至 8 月 28 日期間提出意見。​​ 

DHCS HCBS 全州過渡計劃網頁上有提交公眾意見的說明。DHCS 將收集此資訊,並更新全州過渡計劃的最終版本,以便在提交 CMS 之前再給公眾一個評論期。DHCS 鼓勵利益相關者繼續訪問網站以獲取更多資訊,如有任何問題,請發送電子郵件至STP@dhcs.ca.gov。​​ 

猴子花更新:實驗室計費​​ 

7 月26 ,2022 ,美國醫學協會現行程序術語 (CPT) 編輯小組建立並發佈了 CPT代碼,以簡化目前在美國可用的矯正痘病毒和猴痘檢測報告,其中包括實驗室檢測的代碼:​​ 

  • 87593:通過核酸(DNA 或 RNA)檢測傳染病因;正直腸病毒(例如猴子花病毒,牛花病毒,疫苗病毒),擴大探測技術,各種。​​ 

This new code is currently not programmed for billing in FFS Medi-Cal. Medi-Cal will announce when the claims adjudication system is ready, and release additional instructions providers should use when billing for a monkeypox testing code. Until then, providers are advised to administer the test when medically indicated and hold the Medi-Cal claim submission until further notice.​​ 

檢測的機會越來越多,包括 Labcorp、Quest、Aegis、Mayo Clinic Labs 和 Sonic Healthcare 在內的幾家大型商業實驗室都提供檢測服務。 一些當地的公共衛生實驗室也提供測試服務。 公共衛生檢測不收取費用,商業檢測應按上述方式收費。目前,聯邦政府分配給加州的猴痘疫苗劑量有限,加州公共衛生局 (CDPH) 正與地方衛生部門合作提供這些劑量。​​  

DHCS will continue to update and inform all Medi-Cal providers about testing and vaccinations related to monkeypox as guidance becomes available.​​ 

Both the CDPH and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention websites provide further guidance on monkeypox symptoms, testing, treatment, and vaccination.​​ 

牙科提供者申請和註冊驗證(PAVE)門戶網站​​ 

10 月 31 日,DHCS 將為牙科服務提供者實施 PAVE 入口網站。PAVE 入口網站是以網路為基礎的應用程式,旨在簡化並加速註冊程序。PAVE 將提供一個新的模式,讓申請人使用 Medi-Cal 提供者電子表格申請表,向 DHCS 提交牙科提供者註冊申請和所需文件。一旦實施 PAVE,DHCS 將不再接受紙質申請表。​​ 

Dental providers are invited to attend an online demonstration. The two-part series will begin with an introduction to PAVE on August 24, and an overview of key features to be scheduled for October. A more in-depth training session will be scheduled for November, following the implementation of PAVE.  Each session is one hour. The demonstrations will be recorded and made accessible for future reference on the DHCS PAVE webpage. DHCS will release a Special Provider Bulletin by August 8 to notify providers about the upcoming trainings.​​   

全州 HCBS 差距分析和多年路線圖 — 承包商選擇​​ 

2022 年 3 月,DHCS 發佈了一份資訊徵求 (RFI),向有興趣的各方徵求資訊,以協助 DHCS 開展一項重大計畫,對加州的 HCBS 和 Medi-Cal 長期支援與服務 (MLTSS) 計畫和網路進行全州範圍的差距分析和多年期路線圖。DHCS 收到了多份競標書,並通過其嚴謹的選擇過程,確定 Mathematica 最適合實現 Money Follows the Person (MFP) Supplemental Funding - Gap Analysis and Multiyear Roadmap 的目標。DHCS 計劃在 8 月與 Mathematica 敲定合約/工作範圍,承包商將在合約執行後立即開始工作。差距分析將於 9 月前提交30,2023, 多年期路線圖將於 3 月前提交31,2024 。DHCS 將於 6 月30,2024 前向利益相關者和立法者提交最終成果。​​
