Key Issues for Medicaid in 2013
• Fiscal pressure: a driving factor affecting Medicaid at both the state and federal level
• Making Medicaid better: Widespread focus on accountability, quality improvement, delivery system and reimbursement strategies
• Health reform: State-specific responses to opportunities in ACA, including those for persons with disabilities, chronic conditions, or for seniors.

What Medicaid Has Become: America’s Largest Health Program
3
– Medicaid enrollment: 63 Million (2013 avg. monthly, including 6 million children in CHIP)
– With turnover, over 75 million enrolled for part or all of 2013
– Medicaid spending: $491 billion (2013)
– Federal share: $282 billion; State share: $209 billion
• Medicare, by comparison, will cover 51 million persons and spend $598 billion in 2013
Source: HMA projections for 2013, based on CMS, Office of the Actuary, 2012.
Medicaid Is Not One Program, But Several, Each with a Key Role
4
• Health insurance for low-income families, persons with disabilities and the elderly
• Assistance to low-income Medicare beneficiaries (40% of Medicaid spending)
• Long-term care, including home and community services (Over 30% of Medicaid spending)
• Other roles, such as:• Support for safety net providers who serve the uninsured -
DSH payments to hospitals• Financial support for other programs such as mental health,
school and public health

Governors Are Often Frustrated by Persistent Medicaid Cost Growth
“Medicaid growth is simply unsustainable and threatens to consume the core functions of state government.”
• Governor Jan Brewer, (R – Arizona), signing request for waiver of “Maintenance of Effort” law in order to cut adults from Medicaid.
11
States Have Looked for Every Possible Way to Slow Medicaid Cost Growth, But …
12
• Easy actions have been taken– State fiscal stress has meant a perennial focus on cost containment– Some options, like eligibility restrictions, are off the table for now
• Medicaid patients are sicker– Compared to low-income adults with private health insurance, over twice
as likely to be in fair or poor physical or mental health, or to have chronic health conditions
• Medicaid costs are already lower than other payers’– Adjusted for health status, costs per capita are 1/4 less for adults; 1/3 less
for children; further cuts could jeopardize access• Medicaid cost growth has been lower
– 23% less per capita than for persons with private health insurance

States Have Found Managed Care Provides a Platform for Accountability and Quality
“We are unashamed to use the power of Medicaid to raise the standard of care for all the citizens of our state.” – Craigan Gray, MD, Former NC Medicaid director
• Wide Range of Quality Initiatives• Care management programs for high risk / high cost patients
• Performance improvement projects (e.g., reducing avoidable ER visits)
• Consumer guides and MCO performance report cards, based on HEDIS and CAHPS
• Special initiatives for priority population health (e.g., reducing obesity, disparities)
• Reimbursement Strategies• Bonus payments for high performance on HEDIS® or CAHPS® quality performance measures selected
annually
• Penalties for poor performance
• Higher payment when meet medical home or chronic care management standards
• Procurements based on quality

Many States Are Incorporating LTSS into their Risk-Based Managed Care Programs
• A transformational change is occurring: States have gained confidence that the long term care population can be well served through health plans or managed long term care.
• Massachusetts, Arizona, Minnesota and Wisconsin led the way 2 decades ago
• Programs generally included Medicaid services only, but programs in Massachusetts, New York, and Wisconsin also included Medicare services.
• At least half of states now include, or have plans to include LTSS in managed care

behavioral health and LTSS statewide• FL – Managed LTC (MLTC) contracts were announced in January • NY – MLTC moving voluntary to mandatory in NYC.

Duals Demo Projects Aim for Integrated, Coordinated Care to Patients
• A total of 34 states were looking at a “duals initiative” of some kind for FY 2013
• CMS has approved “financial alignment” demos in Massachusetts, Washington, Ohio– Capitated (MA, OH) or managed FFS (WA) models
• CMS continues to review demo MOUs for:– Capitated only models: MI, NY, VT – Both Cap and FFS Models: CA, SC, WI– Managed FFS models: CO, CT, NC, OK
• MN, OR and TN were selected by CMS for demo grants but have withdrawn proposals
27
The Michigan Dual Eligible Project
• Will integrate physical health, behavioral health and long term care for up to 70,000 of Michigan’s 200,000 duals, in 4 regions – Wayne County, Macomb County, 8 SW Counties, All 15 UP Counties
• Integrated Care Organizations will use the Care Bridge to coordinate all care– PIHPs handle for behavioral health and habilitative services for persons
with developmental disabilities, mental illness and substance abuse.
• Medicaid PMPM payments to ICOs and to PIHPs • Medicare payments to ICOs – PIHP subcontracts required• Timeline:
– Expect RFP for ICOs soon; Expect awards ~ June 2013– Expect final contracts and outreach ~ Fall 2013– Implementation January 1, 2014

The State Innovation Models Initiative
– CMMI announced initiative in July 2012 to accelerate the development and testing of new payment and service delivery models; applications were due in September 2012.
– Will fund limited number of states to test new payment and service delivery models that have potential to lower costs for Medicare, Medicaid and CHIP while improving health and quality of care.
– Goal is to involve multi-payer models that raise community health status and reduce long term health risks for program beneficiaries
– Awards expected soon• Up to $50 million to up to 25 states for model design• Up to $225 million for 3-4 years for up to 5 states for model testing

“Deficits are projected to increase later in the coming decade, however, because of the pressures of an aging population, rising health care costs, an expansion of federal subsidies for health insurance, and growing interest payments on federal debt.”

What Will Congress Do Under Pressure to Cut Federal Cost of Medicare and Medicaid?
“The primary driver of our national debt is our healthcare programs. There's no one magic bullet — like pass this and it's fixed — but, save the healthcare system and you're saving the country from its debt crisis.”

It is Hard for Congress Not to Focus on Federal Cost of Medicare and Medicaid

Medicare and Medicaid Are the Primary Drivers of Future Federal Spending Growth and Deficits

This is a historic and uncertain time for Medicaid – and all of health care
– Medicaid is innovating with payment and delivery systems, greater use of managed care and care management
• New accountability focused on access, quality, cost savings• Using opportunities particularly for dual eligibles, persons with
disabilities, chronic conditions, and long term care.
– Budget issues continue to be a driver for change in Medicaid • Rising health costs and aging of the population add to urgency
– Change is occurring quickly in Medicaid• Innovations promise more value for state and federal dollars, better
care for patients• Providers who serve Medicaid patients will need to adapt to the
new rules, opportunities and challenges
