IHSS COORDINATION GUIDE DEVELOPMENT � Workgroup: All 5 Health Plans, AIS IHSS Managers/Program Staff, Public Authority � Commitment: � CCI A single protocol Advisory Committee: review & approval
HEALTH PLAN PERSPECTIVE � IHSS is a core service that is needed to keep members with ADL/IADL deficiencies living in the community � We need to make it easier for our members to transition from hospital to home with IHSS services, than it is to transition from a hospital to a SNF! – especially on a Friday evening! We need expedited IHSS assessments and extended hours. � All IHSS recipients’ needs are not the same! Programs need to be FLEXIBILE to meet
IHSS COORDINATION GUIDE KEY ELEMENTS � Application Process flow chart – especially helpful for the Health Plans at the beginning of the process � Call Center and Web Referral processes – giving them the contact information they would need and letting them know what type of information they will need to provide on referrals. � The establishment of “expedited” referral criteria and the development of an “expedited”
IHSS COORDINATION GUIDE KEY ELEMENTS � Differentiating between “expedited referrals” and situations where “urgent service referrals” are appropriate � Explaining form requirements and how the Health Plans may play a key role in assisting the member with this � Providing phone numbers to each district office, as well as a zip code list of which office handled which zip code, so that Health Plans could contact the clerical staff at each office with
EXPEDITED IHSS APPLICATIONS � Expedited applications will be processed within 10 business days of receipt by the IHSS Social Worker. Health Plans will be contacted if there are problems that prevent or delay the process. Examples could include but are not limited to the following: � Refusal � Failure of services by the Health Plan Member to cooperate or provide required information
EXPEDITED CRITERIA Someone who has critical care needs and: q No one is available to provide in-home care q q Is unsafe in his/her own home Is at risk of hospitalization (or rehospitalization) without additional assistance Someone who has critical care needs: q That cannot be fully met without additional assistance from IHSS q Is unsafe in his/her own home q Is at risk of hospitalization (or rehospitalization) without services in place
ADDITIONAL EXPEDITED INDICATORS Other indicators for an expedited referral could include: q A diagnosis of a terminal illness. q A rapid decline in health. q Client Is transitioning out of a hospital, and no one is available to provide in-home care or the care needs can’t be fully met. If necessary the IHSS Social Worker may conduct a needs assessment in the hospital. Once the Member transitions home, the IHSS Social Worker must complete an in-home needs assessment within 10 business days from the date of discharge.
APPROVAL/DENIAL ON EXPEDITED APPS �A Notice of Action (NOA) will be issued providing information on services and the number of hours authorized, or the reason for any denial of services � IHSS will inform the Health Plan of any ineligibility to IHSS services � The client has 90 days from the date of the Notice of Action to file an appeal
HEALTH PLAN PERSPECTIVE: IMPORTANT ACCOMPLISHMENTS � AIS was willing to be flexible � AIS was willing to expedite referrals for Plan members transitioning from hospital or SNF to home � Agreement from all 5 Health Plans, Public Authority and AIS on a single, core protocol � Shared value for the consumer-driven foundation of the IHSS program
CCI IMPLEMENTATION CHALLENGES & OPPORTUNITIES � Partnerships/relationships are everything!! � Broad coordination is critical! � Training, re-training…and more training! � Slow beginning for IHSS – applications (standard and expedited) and CCT’s – Why? � Continuous efforts at delivering information and resources to consumers & IP’s � HICAP/Consumer Center for Health Education & Advocacy calls – steady, but settling, burst at start of the month
