19 TEXAS MEDICAID DELIVERY SERVICES MODELS Texas Medicaid provides health care services through two service delivery models. Fee-for-Service: Providers are paid for each service they provide, such as an office visit, test, or procedure. Managed Care: The delivery of care is managed by a health plan Managed Care Organization (MCO) or Dental Maintenance Organization (DMO) through a network of medical or dental providers. Providers in a health plan s network are responsible for managing and delivering quality, cost-effective health care services. Page 19
20 DELIVERY SERVICE MODEL COMPARISONS Features Fee-for-Service Managed Care Who is at risk financially? Payment structure (plans) State (with federal match) N/A Health plans (MCOs/DMOs) State pays capitated monthly premium for enrolled members Payment structure (providers) Provider network contract State pays provider directly for claimed services Provider contracts directly with state Plan pays providers or subcontractors according to contract agreement Provider contracts with state first, then contracts with plan Credentialing N/A Plan verifies applicant provider credentials before contracting Page 20

26 TRANSITION FROM AUDITING FEE-FOR-SERVICE TO MANAGED CARE Coordinate and collaborate with: Legislature Governor s office HHSC executive management HHSC program areas, including the Medicaid/CHIP Division Stakeholders Audit entities Redefine audit client MCO or HHSC program contract management Page 26
27 TRANSITION FROM AUDITING FEE-FOR- SERVICE TO MANAGED CARE, CONT. Develop audit approaches Risk-based Coverage-based Geographic Large/small For profit/not-for-profit Audit each MCO at least once per year MCO-specific Focus on specific function across multiple MCOs SIUs Utilization management Page 27
28 MANAGED CARE AUDIT CHALLENGES Measurement of success Dollars recovered from providers was an important performance measure for audits under Fee-for-Service. Under Managed Care, dollars recovered from providers are returned to the MCO, so dollar impact to state is indirect (experience rebates and future capitation rates). Large number of MCOs and sub-contractors 19 MCOs, 2 DMOs MCOs transmit large amounts of protected health information across multiple IT applications and systems. MCOs may outsource claims processing, call centers, PBMs, behavioral health, etc. MCOs may have different contractual arrangements for payment of medical services with each provider. Page 28
29 MANAGED CARE AUDIT CHALLENGES, CONT. Inadequate quality and delivery of services In Fee-for-Service, audit focus was on the identification and recovery of overpayments made to providers for unnecessary or excessive services. Managed Care audits must address the risk that providers are not delivering necessary or adequate services due to an MCO s attempt to cut costs, such as by denying needed services during prior authorization. Page 29
30 PROVIDER FRAUD, WASTE, AND ABUSE Examples of managed care provider fraud, waste, and abuse: Billing for services not rendered Up-coding Unbundling Solicitation Providing unnecessary or excessive services Providing services outside scope of licensure Providing a service and billing for another or at a higher or inappropriate quantity Duplicate billing Billing for services rendered by excluded or non-contracted provider Page 30
31 MCO FRAUD, WASTE, AND ABUSE Examples of managed care plan fraud, waste, and abuse: Contract procurement fraud Provider credentials Financial solvency Inadequate network Bid-rigging Unreasonable prior authorization delays or denials Encounter data fraud Page 31
32 IG MANAGED CARE AUDITS IG has two managed care audits in progress: MCO special investigative units (SIU) performance MCO utilization management Page 32
33 SPECIAL INVESTIGATIVE UNIT AUDIT Audit objective is to determine the effectiveness of SIUs performance in: Determining and investigating fraud, waste, and abuse. Reporting SIU activities, results, and recoveries to HHSC. Audit background information MCOs received more than $17 billion in capitated services of federal and state funds in fiscal year HHSC Medicaid/CHIP Division administers MCO contracts and maintains oversight responsibility over MCOs. IG approves annual SIU fraud, waste, and abuse plans submitted by MCOs, and has oversight over MCO SIU performance. Page 33
34 SPECIAL INVESTIGATIVE UNIT AUDIT, CONT. The IG Audit Division s analysis of non-audited information submitted by MCOs indicates that: MCOs produce limited results in SIU detection, investigation, recovery, and referral efforts. In 2015, SIUs reported a total of $2.5 million in recoveries, representing two hundredths of one percent (0.02%) of $12.5 billion in medical claims submitted for services provided during the same year. The highest performing SIU in 2015 recovered or referred to IG Investigations less than one half of one percent of MCOs Medicaid and CHIP medical claims dollars. Page 34
35 UTILIZATION MANAGEMENT AUDIT Audit objective is to evaluate: The effectiveness of MCO acute care utilization practices in ensuring that care services, procedures, and facilities are medically necessary, appropriate, and efficient. Whether MCO acute care utilization practices achieve intended client outcomes, including those related to timeliness, availability, and quality of care. Audit background information MCOs use utilization management to review requests for approval of future medical or services needs, or to monitor and evaluate the appropriateness of past treatments and services. HHSC Medicaid/CHIP Division is responsible for managed care policy and oversight of MCOs. Page 35
36 IG MANAGED CARE AUDITS Additional audits on the IG audit plan include: Quality and completeness of MCO encounter data MCO comprehensive review DMO comprehensive review MCO support for quality payments MCO pharmacy benefit managed care compliance Physician administered drug rebate processes in MCOs MCO behavioral health initiatives funded with Medicaid dollars Page 36
37 CONCLUSION Understand difference between Fee-for-Service and Managed Care Direct vs. indirect relationship with provider and dollars recovered from provider Adapt to major changes in audit focus MCO-oriented Address audit challenges Develop new ways to conduct audits and measure success Page 37
