Outcomes and Results • • • Reduced inpatient utilization Reduced jail bookings and length of stay in jail Increased connection to services Increased access to housing Increasing use of crisis services Savings in ER and inpatient admit avoidance
Reduced Inpatient Utilization Average Daily In-Patient Census by Month of Service 40. 0 MCOT fully operational as Receiving Center 35. 0 Average Daily Bed Census 30. 0 Wellness Recovery Center opened in 25. 0 20. 0 FY 12 FY 13 15. 0 FY 14 10. 0 5. 0 Jul Aug Sep Oct Nov Dec Jan Month of Service Feb Mar Apr May Jun
Medical Cost Avoidance Data from Crisis Program diversions show substantial savings to overall health system - $2. 88 million for first quarter
Evidence of Success CORE & JDOT Study Design: The outcomes data presented follow the group who participated in services in FY 2012 (July 1, 2011 -June 30, 2012). The outcomes compare 1 year prior to program enrollment and 1 year after program enrollment. Because the ATI transport and CRT are one-time/short-term involvement, the outcomes will focus on whether participants were engaged in treatment services 30 days after release from jail for ATI and 90 days for CRT. Housing data show a comparison of housing at enrollment and at discharge from the program. *Results include only bookings in the SLCO jail. They do not reflect prison or out-of-state bookings. 17
Evidence of Success Combined With SL Co Housing Participation in the County’s Housing programs increases the power of the Alternatives to Incarceration programs significantly, particularly for jail bookings for new charges (21% greater reduction) and length of stay in jail (45% greater reduction). 18
Evidence of Success ATI Transport & CRT 100% % of Participants Attached to VMH Services after Enrollment 80% The ATI Transport and CRT were effective in attaching participants to behavioral health services upon leaving incarceration. ATI Transport (Attached) 60% 40% CRT (Remaining Attached After 90 Days) 20% 0% Q 1 12 Q 2 12 Q 3 12 Q 4 12 Q 1 13 Q 2 13 Overall, • 89% of ATI participants attached to services within 30 days. • 100% of CRT participants attached to services and 63% of CRT participants remained attached after 90 days. 19
What Remains to be Addressed • Programs specific for women • Youth Services programs (MCOT and FAST) • Address DCFS Medicaid carve-out and Coordination • Medicaid Enrollment Process at Corrections • ACA Impacts – Utah’s version of Medicaid Expansion • Council of State Governments Study
Lessons Learned • Political Support and Alignment • Everyone is welcome – needed at the table • County is a single payer for all these services- what delivers best outcomes and efficiency • Align incentives with mission and vision • Persistence is a virtue and strength • OK to proceed incrementally
