What’s in it
This bill directs the department of human services (DHS) to provide written notice in accordance with the termination provisions of the contract, to each managed care organization (MCO) with whom DHS executed a contract to administer the Iowa high quality health care initiative as established by the department, to terminate such contracts as applicable to the long-term services and supports population, following a 60-day transition period. DHS is directed to transfer the long-term services and supports population to fee-for-service program administration.
Read the full explanation
The transition is to be based on a transition plan developed by the department and submitted to the council on human services and the medical assistance advisory council for review. The bill requires DHS to use Medicaid program claims paid data for the period beginning April 1, 2015, and ending March 31, 2016, as base data to develop and certify capitation rates for home and community-based services provided through the intellectual disability waiver under Medicaid managed care for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2019. The bill requires DHS to seek any Medicaid state plan or waiver amendments necessary to administer the bill. The bill takes effect upon enactment.
