NEWS FACTS:
-
Scheduled Speaker: Jeff Schiff, M.D., M.B.A., Medical Director, Minnesota Health Care Programs, Minnesota Department of Human Services
-
Conference Focus: The Minnesota Department of Human Services, Minnesota’s Medicaid agency, has begun a process to transform healthcare delivery in the primary care setting. Legislation passed in both 2007 and 2005 and a Medicaid Transformation Grant have allowed the state to begin work on the creation of a payment support infrastructure for primary care in the form of risk-adjusted care coordination capitation. The existing model of fee-for-service is being replaced by proactive care planning and management with the patient and families.
The payment methodology takes into account both medical and social/demographic factors associated with medical care coordination. Dr. Jeff Schiff will describe this methodology and will explain how Minnesota addresses the challenges associated with risk adjustment, including the “year two” problem and the addition of clinical data to the model.
