Medicaid expansion or subsidized exchange purchasers – two views of individuals High Need •

Medicaid expansion or subsidized exchange purchasers – two views of individuals High Need • Needs for services to treat multiple chronic conditions, behavioral health and substance abuse • Consumers at the lower end of the poverty scale incur disproportionately high costs Low need • Relatively healthy young (age 19 -34) and predominately report themselves to be in “excellent” or “very good” physical and mental health • More likely to be in a working household Most likely to see a blend of these characteristics, but should not expect this population to be homogenous 5

Families with “Split Eligibility” • Numerous families will have members covered by different programs:

Families with “Split Eligibility” • Numerous families will have members covered by different programs: Medicaid, CHIP, Exchange (with subsidies) – 16. 2 million Medicaid or CHIP-eligible children have parents with income in Exchange-eligibility range. * – 75 percent of Exchange-eligible parents will have one or more children who are eligible for CHIP or Medicaid and must enroll in these programs. * • It is important to cover families in one plan – Parents need to learn only one health plan’s procedures. – In some MCOs and with family practitioners, parents & kids can be seen together if enrolled in a common plan. – Health coverage system needs to be consumer-friendly – doesn’t make sense to split families into separate programs and plans. *Urban Institute (http: //www. urban. org/Uploaded.

Specialized (Limited Benefit) Plans • Carve out supports a strong population management focus on

Specialized (Limited Benefit) Plans • Carve out supports a strong population management focus on individuals with chronic illness burden, such as serious mental illness or intellectual disabilities – This focus could occur in an integrated medical model but often does not due to special needs and stigma • Many of these individuals see the “specialty provider” as their primary points of contact • Carve out facilitates strong engagement with other human services (welfare, criminal justice, children and youth) • Tailored to meet consumer preference and provider expertise 10
