9. What is Managed Care? Managed care is when health care organizations manage how their enrollees receive health care services. Managed care is a financing and delivery system that may employ provider network management, utilization management and quality assurance. 9

10. What is Managed Care? Managed Care Organizations (MCOs) contract with a variety of health care providers to offer quality health care services to ensure enrollees have access to the health care they need. MCOs may be paid through a capitated arrangement where the health plan receives a per member per month reimbursement to provide all covered medical services to its members. 10

11. Key Terminology Member: A person who has selected or been assigned to a managed care plan. Prepaid: Managed care plans are paid at the beginning of each month. Capitation: The monthly fixed amount paid to the MCO for each member. Per Member Per Month (PMPM): MCOs receive capitation payment each month for each member. At Risk: A managed care plan is responsible for arranging for and paying for all covered services regardless of the cost. 11

12. Key Terminology (continued) Provider Network: health care and long-term care service providers (e.g., doctors, hospitals, nursing facilities, home health agencies) that contract with a managed care plan to provide services. –The MCO reimburses the contracted providers for services rendered to the plan’s enrolled members. –MCOs can limit the number of providers with which they contract. 12

13. Common Types of Managed Care Plans in Florida Health Maintenance Organizations (HMOs) –Licensed under Chapter 641, Florida Statutes. –HMO networks are not limited to Medicaid-enrolled providers. Provider Service Networks (PSNs) –A network established or organized and operated by a health care provider, or group of affiliated health care providers. –Provides a substantial proportion of the health care items and services under a contract directly through the provider or group of affiliated providers. –May be fee for service or capitated. 13

14. Statewide Medicaid Managed Care In 2011, the Florida Legislature created a new program under Chapter 409, Part IV, Florida Statutes called : Statewide Medicaid Managed Care (SMMC). 14

15. Statewide Medicaid Managed Care Goals The Statewide Medicaid Managed Care Program is designed to: Emphasize patient centered care, personal responsibility and active patient participation; Coordinate fully integrated long-term care and health care in different health care settings; Provide a choice of the best managed care plans to meet recipients’ needs; and Implement innovations in reimbursement methodologies, managed care plan quality and plan accountability. 15

Plans may limit the providers in their networks based on credentials, quality indicators and price. 38

39. Enrollment Process Recipients are encouraged to choose the managed care plan that best meets their needs. If a recipient who is required to enroll does not choose a plan within 30 days, AHCA will automatically assign the recipient to a managed care plan. Enrollees can change their providers within their plan at any time. Recipients have 30 days to enroll in a plan. Recipients have 90 days after enrollment to change plans. After 90 days, recipients must stay in their plan for the remainder of the 12 month period before changing plans again. 39

40. Managed Care Enrollment Process Prior to implementation of the program in each region of the state, the Medicaid Enrollment Broker will mail plan selection materials to recipients or their designated representatives. Individuals from the Medicaid Enrollment Broker, the local Aging and Disability Resource Centers (ADRC), and the local Medicaid Area Offices will assist individuals in securing the information they need to select a plan that best meets their needs. 40

41. Managed Care Enrollment Process After 90 days, individuals must remain in their plan until the next open enrollment period (approximately 9 months later), unless they have good cause to change plans. Examples of good cause include, but not limited to: –The recipient is ineligible for enrollment in the health plan; –they are receiving poor quality of care; or –were unreasonably denied services. 41
