Benchmark cost

The projected cost of care for a specific shared savings entity against which savings are measured. Benchmark costs are expressed as an average amount per beneficiary.

Benchmark trend

The fixed percentage growth applied to PCMH practices' historical baseline fixed costs of care to project benchmark cost.

Care coordination

The ongoing work of engaging beneficiaries and organizing their care needs across providers and care settings.

Care coordination payment

Quarterly payments made to participating practices to support care coordination services. Payment amount is calculated per attributed beneficiary, per month.

211.000Enrollment Eligibility

To be eligible to enroll in the PCMH program:

A. The entity must be a participating practice as defined in Section 200.000.
B. The practice must include PCPs enrolled in the ConnectCare Primary Care Case Management (PCCM) Program.
C. The practice may not participate in the PCCM shared savings pilot established under Act 1453 of 2013.
D. The practice must have at least 300 attributed beneficiaries at the time of enrollment.

DMS may modify the number of attributed beneficiaries required for enrollment based on provider experience and will publish at www.pavmentinitiative.organy such modification.

E. The practice must meet eligibility criteria as specified in the conditions for enrollment as indicated in the PCMH activities and metrics list. These criteria are published at www.pavmentinitiative.org/referenceMaterials/Documents/2016PCMHProgramPolicv Addendum.pdf.
212.000Practice Enrollment

Enrollment in the PCMH program is voluntary and practices must re-enroll annually. To enroll, practices must access the Advanced Health Information Network (AHIN) provider portal and submit a complete and accurate Arkansas Medicaid Patient-Centered Medical Home Practice Participation Agreement (DMS-844). The AHIN portal can be accessed at www.pavmentinitiative.org/medicalHomes/Pages/Enrollment-Process.aspx. Once enrolled, a participating PCMH remains in the PCMH program until:

A. The PCMH withdraws;
B. The practice or provider changes ownership, becomes ineligible, is suspended or terminated from the Medicaid program or the PCMH program; or
C. DMS terminates the PCMH program.

A physician may be affiliated with only one participating practice. A participating practice must update the Department of Human Services (DHS) on changes to the list of physicians who are part of the practice. Physicians who are no longer participating within a practice are required to update in writing via email at ARKPCMH(S)hp.comwithin 30 days of the change.

To withdraw from the PCMH program, the participating practice must email a complete and accurate Arkansas Patient-Centered Medical Home Withdrawal Form (DMS-846) to ARKPCMH(S)hp.com. View or print the Arkansas Patient-Centered Medical Home Withdrawal Form (DMS-846)or download the form from the AHIN provider portal.

213.000Enrollment Schedule

Enrollment is open for approximately 3 months in Quarter 3 and Quarter 4 of the preceding calendar year.

DMS will not accept any enrollment documents received other than during an enrollment period.

214.000Caseload Management

A participating practice must manage its caseload of attributed beneficiaries, including removal of a beneficiary from its panel. DMS retains the right to disallow beneficiary removals if it was determined it was done so to dismiss high costs and/or high-risk patients from the panel.

221.000Practice Support Scope

Practice support includes both care coordination payments made to a PCMH and practice transformation support provided by a Division of Medical Services (DMS) contracted vendor and is subject to funding limitations on the part of DMS.

Receipt and use of the care coordination payments is not conditioned on the PCMH engaging a care coordination vendor, as payment can be used to support participating practices' investments (e.g., time and energy) in enacting changes to achieve PCMH goals. Care coordination payments are risk-adjusted to account for the varying levels of care coordination services needed for beneficiaries with different risk profiles.

DMS will contract with a practice transformation vendor on behalf of PCMHs that require additional support to catalyze practice transformation and retain and use such vendor. PCMHs must maintain documentation of the months they have contracted with a practice transformation vendor. Practice transformation vendors must report to DMS the level and type of service delivered to each PCMH. Payments to a practice transformation vendor on behalf of a participating practice may continue for up to 24 months.

However, no practice support may extend beyond June 30, 2017, regardless of the number of months practice support was received by a practice. PCMHs may contract with only one vendor at a given time. PCMHs are able to change vendors at any time with notification in writing to the outgoing vendor and DMS. Failure to provide written notification will result in the PCMH being liable for any duplicate payments.

DMS may pay, recover or offset overpayment or underpayment of care coordination payments.

DMS will also support PCMHs through improved access to information through the reports described in Section 244.000.

222.000Practice Support Eligibility

In addition to the enrollment eligibility requirements listed in Section 211.000, in order for PCMHs to receive practice support, DMS measures PCMH performance against activities tracked for practice support identified in Section 241.000. PCMHs must meet the requirements of this section to receive practice support.

Each PCMH in a shared entity will, if individually qualified, receive practice support even if another PCMH in a shared savings entity does not qualify for practice support.

223.000Care Coordination Payment Amount

The care coordination payment is risk adjusted based on factors including demographics (age, sex), diagnoses and utilization. DMS will publish the current payment scale at www.pavmentinitiative.org/referenceMaterials/Documents/2016PCMHProgramPolicvAdde ndum.pdf.

After each quarter, DMS may pay, recover or offset the care coordination payments to ensure that a PCMH did not receive a care coordination payment for any beneficiary who died, lost eligibility or if the practice lost eligibility during the quarter.

If a PCMH withdraws from the PCMH program, then the PCMH is only eligible for care coordination payments based on a complete quarter's participation in the PCMH program.

232.000Shared Savings Incentive Payments Eligibility

To receive shared savings incentive payments, a shared savings entity must have a minimum of 5,000 attributed beneficiaries once the exclusions listed below have been applied. A shared savings entity may meet this requirement as a single PCMH or by pooling attributed beneficiaries across more than one PCMH as described in Section 233.000.

A. The following beneficiaries shall not be counted toward the 5,000 attributed beneficiary requirements.
1. Beneficiaries that have been attributed to that entity's PCMH(s) for less than half of the performance period.
2. Beneficiaries that a PCMH prospectively designates for exclusion from per beneficiary cost of care (also known as physician-selected exclusions) on or before the 90th day of the performance period. Once a beneficiary is designated for exclusion, a PCMH may not update selection for the duration of the performance period. The total number of physician-selected exclusions will be directly proportional to the PCMH's total number of attributed beneficiaries (e.g., up to one exclusion for every 1,000 attributed beneficiaries).
3. Beneficiaries for whom DMS has identified another payer that is legally liable for all or part of the cost of Medicaid care and services provided to the beneficiary.

DMS may add, remove or adjust these exclusions based on new research, empirical evidence, provider experience with select beneficiary populations or inclusion of new payers. DMS will publish such an addition, removal or modification on

www.pavmentinitiative.org/referenceMaterials/Documents/2016PCMHProgramPolicvAdde ndum.pdf.

B. Shared savings incentive payments are conditioned upon a shared savings entity:
1. Enrolling during the enrollment period prior to the beginning of the performance period;
2. Meeting Section 241.000 requirements for activities tracked for practice support;
3. Meeting requirements for metrics tracked for shared savings incentive payments in Section 243.000 based on the performance for beneficiaries attributed to the shared savings entity for the majority of the performance period; and
4. Maintaining eligibility for practice support as described in Section 222.000.

Eligibility requirements for shared savings for Comprehensive Primary Care (CPC) practices are described in Section 251.000.

Shared savings payments are made to the individual PCMHs which are part of a shared savings entity. These payments are risk- and time- adjusted and prorated based on the number of beneficiaries of each PCMH. These payments are predicated on each PCMH maintaining eligibility for practice support as described in Section 222.000.

233.000Pools of Attributed Beneficiaries

Shared savings entities will meet the minimum pool size of 5,000 attributed beneficiaries as described in Section 232.000 in one of three ways:

A. Meet minimum pool size independently;
B. Pool attributed beneficiaries voluntarily with other participating PCMHs as described in Section 234.000; or
C. Be assigned to the default pool as described in Section 234.000.

In the methods B and C listed above, PCMHs have their performance measured together by aggregating performance of the per beneficiary cost of care. In the method B, the quality metrics are tracked for shared savings incentive payments across all the PCMHs in the pool. In the method C, the quality metrics are tracked for shared savings incentive payments on an individual PCMH level. A shared savings entity's configuration (A, B orC) is established during the enrollment period and cannot be changed after the end of the enrollment period.

234.000Requirements for Joining and Leaving Pools

PCMHs may voluntarily pool for purposes described in Section 233.000 before the end of the enrollment period that precedes the start of the performance period. To pool, the participating practice must email a complete and accurate Arkansas Medicaid Patient-Centered Medical Home Program Pooling Request Form (DMS-845) to ARKPCMH@hp.com. View or print the Arkansas Medicaid Patient-Centered Medical Home Program Pooling Request Form.You can also download the form from the AHIN provider portal.

The DMS-845 Pooling form must be executed by all PCMHs participating in the pool. Before the end of the enrollment period, PCMHs that are on their own or through pooling do not reach a minimum of 5,000 attributed beneficiaries will be assigned to the default pool. Individual PCMHs whose attribution changes during the performance period will be classified as standalone or default pool members according to their attribution count at the end of the performance period. This exception does not apply to voluntary pools.

Pooling is effective for a single performance period and must be renewed for each subsequent year.

When a PCMH has voluntarily pooled, its performance is measured in the associated shared savings entity throughout the duration of the performance period unless it withdraws from the PCMH program during the performance period. When a PCMH in the voluntary pool withdraws from the PCMH program, any and all PCMHs in the shared savings entity will have their performance measured as if the withdrawn PCMH had never participated in the pool.

235.000Per Beneficiary Cost of Care Calculation

Each year, the per beneficiary cost of care performance is aggregated and assessed across a shared savings entity. Per beneficiary cost of care is calculated as the risk- and time-adjusted average of such entity's attributed beneficiaries' total fee-for-service claims (based on the published reimbursement methodology) during the annual performance period, with adjustments and exclusions as defined below.

One hundred percent of the dollar value of care coordination payments is included in the per beneficiary cost of care calculation.

As described in Section 232.000, beneficiaries not counted toward the minimum number of attributed beneficiaries for shared savings incentive payments will be excluded from the calculation of per beneficiary cost of care.

Some costs are excluded from the calculation of per beneficiary cost of care. Each year DMS will announce which costs are excluded at

www.pavmentinitiative.org/referenceMaterials/Documents/2016PCMHProgramPolicvAdde ndum.pdf.

236.000Baseline and Benchmark Cost Calculations

DMS will calculate a historical baseline per beneficiary cost of care for each shared savings entity. This shared savings entity-specific historical baseline will be calculated as a multi-year blended average of each shared savings entity's per beneficiary cost of care.

DMS will calculate benchmark costs for each shared savings entity by applying a 2.6% benchmark trend to the entity's historical baseline per beneficiary cost of care. DMS may reevaluate the value of this benchmark trend if the annual, system-average per beneficiary cost of care growth rate differs significantly from a benchmark, to be specified by DMS. DMS will publish any modification to the benchmark trend at

www.pavmentinitiative.org/referenceMaterials/Documents/2016PCMHProgramPolicvAdde ndum.pdf.

237.000Shared Savings Incentive Payments Amounts

A shared savings entity is eligible to receive a shared savings incentive payment that is the greater of:

(A) a shared savings incentive payment for performance improvement; or
(B) a shared savings incentive payment for absolute performance.
A. Shared savings incentive payments for performance improvement are calculated as follows:
1. During each performance period, each shared savings entity's per beneficiary savings is calculated as: [benchmark cost for that performance period] - [per beneficiary cost of care for that performance period].
2. If the shared savings entity's per beneficiary cost of care falls below that entity's benchmark cost for that performance period by at least the minimum savings rate, only then may the shared savings entity be eligible for a shared savings incentive payment for performance improvement.
3. The per beneficiary shared savings incentive payment for performance improvement for which the shared savings entity may be eligible is calculated as follows: [per beneficiary savings for that performance period] * [shared savings entity's shared savings percentage for that performance period].
4. To establish shared savings percentages for performance improvement in a given performance period, DMS will compare the entity's previous year per beneficiary cost of care to the previous year's medium and high cost thresholds.
5. If, in the previous performance period, a shared savings entity's per beneficiary cost of care was:
a. Below the medium cost threshold, then the shared savings entity may receive 50% of per beneficiary savings created in the current performance period (i.e., the entity's shared savings percentage will be 50%);
b. Between the medium and high cost thresholds, then the shared savings entity may receive 30% of per beneficiary savings created in the current performance period (i.e., the entity's shared savings percentage will be 30%);
c. Above the high cost threshold, the shared savings entity may receive 10% of per beneficiary savings created in the current performance period (i.e., the entity's shared savings percentage will be 10%) unless the shared savings entity's per beneficiary cost of care falls above the current performance period high cost incentive payment for that performance period.
B. Shared savings incentive payments for absolute performance are calculated as follows:

If the shared savings entity's per beneficiary cost of care falls below the current performance period medium cost threshold, then the shared savings entity may be eligible for a shared savings incentive payment for absolute performance. The per beneficiary shared savings incentive payment for absolute performance for which the entity may be eligible is calculated as follows: ([medium cost threshold for that performance period] - [per beneficiary cost of care for that performance period]) * [50%].

Shared savings calculations under absolute performance and performance improvements are subject to the following criteria:

These thresholds reflect an annual increase of 1.5% from the base year thresholds (base year medium cost threshold: $1,972; base year high cost threshold: $2,638) and will increase by 1.5% each subsequent year. Adjustments to the thresholds will be posted at

www.paymentinitiative.org/referenceMaterials/Documents/2016PCMHProgramPolicy Addendum.pdf.

1. The minimum savings rate is 2%. DMS may adjust this rate based on new research, empirical evidence or experience from initial provider experience with shared savings incentive payments. DMS will publish any such modification of the minimum savings rate at

www.paymentinitiative.org/referenceMaterials/Documents/2016PCMHProgram PolicyAddendum.pdf.

2. If the per beneficiary shared savings incentive payment for which the shared savings entity is eligible exceeds the shared savings incentive payment cap, expressed as 10% of the shared savings entity's benchmark cost for that performance period, the shared savings entity will be eligible for a per beneficiary shared savings incentive payment equal to 10% of its benchmark cost for that performance period.
3. If the shared savings entity's per beneficiary cost of care falls above the current performance period total cost of care floor, then the shared savings entity's per beneficiary cost of care will be set as the total cost of care floor, for purposes of calculating shared savings incentive payments. The 2014 cost of care floor is set at $1,400 and will increase by 1.5% each subsequent year, or as specified at www.paymentinitiative.org.
4. A shared savings entity's total shared savings incentive payment will be calculated as the per beneficiary shared savings incentive payment for which it is eligible multiplied by the number of attributed beneficiaries as described in Section 232.000, adjusted based on the amount of time beneficiaries were attributed to such PCMHs and the risk profile of the attributed beneficiaries.

If participating practices have pooled their attributed beneficiaries together, then shared savings incentive payments will be allocated to those practices based on risk- and time-adjustment and in proportion to the number of attributed beneficiaries that each PCMH contributed to such pool.

1. A shared savings entity will not receive shared savings incentive payments unless it meets all the conditions described in Section 232.000.
2. DMS pays shared savings incentive payments on an annual basis for the most recently completed performance period and may withhold a portion of shared savings incentive payments to allow for final payment adjustment after a year of claims data is available.
3. Final payment will include any adjustments required in order to account for all claims for dates of service within the performance period. If the final payment adjustment is negative, then DMS may recover the payment adjustment from the participating PCMH.
241.000Activities Tracked for Practice Support

Using the provider portal, participating PCMHs must complete and document the activities as announced by DMS at

www.pavmentinitiative.org/referenceMaterials/Documents/2016PCMHProgramPolicvAdde ndum.pdf.The reference point for the deadlines is the first day of the calendar year.

242.000 Accountability for Practice Support

If a PCMH does not meet deadlines and targets for activities tracked for practice support as described in Section 241.000, then the practice must remediate its performance to avoid suspension or termination of practice support.

DMS will verify whether attestation and required documentation was submitted as required by the PCMH program. Failure to comply with this requirement will result in a Notice of Attestation Failure.

DMS will also validate whether attested activities met the PCMH program requirements. Failure to pass validation will result in a Notice of Validation Failure.

PCMHs which received a Notice of Attestation Failure and/or PCMHs which received a Notice of Validation Failure will have 15 calendar days to submit sufficient QIP. Failure to submit sufficient QIP within 15 days of receiving a Notice of Attestation Failure and/or a Notice of Validation Failure will result in suspension or termination of practice support. PCMHs which receive a Notice of Attestation Failure will have 90 days to remediate their performance from the date of the Notice of Attestation Failure. PCMHs which received a Notice of Validation Failure will have 45 days to remediate their performance from the date of the Notice of Validation Failure.

If a PCMH fails to meet the deadlines or targets for activities within the specified remediation time, then DMS will suspend or terminate practice support.

243.000Quality Metrics Tracked for Shared Savings Incentive Payments

DMS assesses quality metrics tracked for shared savings incentive payments according to the targets announced by DMS at www.pavmentinitiative.org. To receive a shared savings incentive payment, the shared savings entity or PCMH must meet the quality metrics on which the entity or PCMH is assessed and which are published at

www.pavmentinitiative.org/referenceMaterials/Documents/2016PCMHProgramPolicvAdde ndum.pdf.

244.000Provider Reports

DMS provides participating PCMH provider reports containing information about their PCMH performance on activities tracked for practice support, quality metrics tracked for shared savings incentive payments and their per beneficiary cost of care via the provider portal.

Providers who have concerns about information included in their reports should send an email to PCMH(S)AFMC.org. The PCMH Quality Assurance Manager will respond to the provider/practice with a review of their inquiry. If the review leads to a discovery that the provider report is inaccurate or does not reflect actual performance, DMS will take the necessary steps to correct the inaccuracies including those that are a result of a systems and/or algorithm error. Providers can also call the APII help desk at 501-301-8311 or 866-322-4698 and by email at ARKPII@HPE.com.

A. Appeals

If you disagree with DMS' decision regarding program participation, payment or other adverse action, you have the right to request reconsideration and you have the right to request an administrative appeal.

B. Request Reconsideration

The Division of Medical Services must receive written request for reconsideration within (30) calendar days of the Date of the adverse action, notice. Send your request to the Director, Division of Medical Services P.O. Box 1437, Slot S401, Little Rock, AR 72203.

C. Request an Administrative Appeal
