"Section 1. Minnesota Statutes 2016, section 256B.0758, is amended to read:
256B.0758
HEALTH CARE DELIVERY PILOT PROGRAM.
Subdivision 1. Pilot
projects. (a) The commissioner may
shall establish a health care delivery pilot program to test alternative and innovative integrated health
care delivery networks, including accountable care organizations or a. Pilot projects may be established by
community-based collaborative care network networks including but not
limited to care networks created by or including North Memorial Health Care. If required, the commissioner shall seek
federal approval of a new waiver request or amend an existing demonstration
pilot project waiver. The pilot
program shall target groups with a higher incidence of poor overall health
relative to the general population due to a combination of medical, economic,
behavioral health, cultural, and geographic risk factors.
(b) Individuals eligible for The
pilot program shall be serve individuals who:
(1) are eligible for medical
assistance under section 256B.055 or MinnesotaCare under chapter 256L;
(2) reside in the service area of the
care network;
(3) have a combination of multiple risk
factors identified by the care network and approved by the commissioner; and
(4) have agreed to participate in the pilot project.
The commissioner may identify individuals who are potentially eligible to be enrolled in the pilot program based on zip code or other geographic designation, diagnosis, utilization history, or other factors indicating whether the individuals would benefit from an integrated health care delivery network.
(c) In developing a payment system for the pilot programs, the commissioner shall establish a total cost of care for the individuals enrolled in the pilot program that equals the cost of care that would otherwise be spent for these enrollees in the prepaid medical assistance program.
(d) Participation in the pilot program
is limited to no more than six pilot projects, including North Memorial Health
Care's care network and up to five additional community-based care network
pilot projects meeting criteria established by the commissioner. The commissioner shall consider the following
criteria when selecting the additional pilot projects:
(1) the care network serves a high
percentage of patients who are enrolled in Minnesota health care programs or
are uninsured, compared to the overall Minnesota population;
(2) the population in the care
network's geographic service area experiences substantially poorer overall
health compared to the overall Minnesota population;
(3) health care providers in the care
network have lower quality-of-care scores under some traditional quality
measures due to economic, behavioral health, cultural, and geographic factors
of the patients served rather than the clinical expertise of the providers in
the care network; and
(4) the health care utilization history
of the population in the care network's service area provides an opportunity to
improve health outcomes and reduce total cost of care through better patient
engagement, coordination of care, and the provision of specialized services to
address nonclinical risk factors and barriers to access.
(e) The commissioner shall seek to
authorize at least one rural pilot project, at least one community-based
primary care safety net project, and at least one behavioral health-focused
pilot project.
Subd. 2. Requirements
related to integrated health partnerships.
(a) The commissioner may require pilot project care networks to
meet the conditions and requirements for integrated health networks under
section 256B.0755, except as follows:
(1) standardized quality of care and
patient satisfaction standards for integrated health partnerships must be
waived, changed, or risk-adjusted based on the economic, behavioral health,
cultural, and geographic risk factors of the patients served;
(2) participating care networks must be
paid a monthly care coordination fee of at least $12 per enrolled person per
month, in addition to any other payments, gain sharing, or health care home
payments that would otherwise be received;
(3) patient attribution to the care
network shall be based on the patients who meet the criteria in this section
and have agreed to participate in the pilot project;
(4) requirements establishing a minimum
number of persons in order to be eligible to participate in the integrated
health partnership do not apply; and
(5) the commissioner shall waive or
modify integrated health partnership requirements that may discourage participation
by rural, independent, community-based, and safety net providers.
(b) An existing integrated health
partnership that meets the criteria in this section is eligible to participate
in the pilot project while continuing as an integrated health partnership and
qualifies for the integrated health partnership exceptions in paragraph (a).
(c)
All pilot projects authorized under this section are eligible to receive the
information and data provided by the commissioner to integrated health
partnerships.
Subd. 3. Payment
and quality measurement reforms. The
commissioner, in consultation with the commissioner of health, pilot project
care networks, and organizations with expertise in serving the patients and
communities identified in this section, shall design and administer the pilot
project in a manner that allows the testing and evaluation of new care models,
payment methods, and quality-of-care measures to determine the extent to which
these initiatives:
(1) improve outcomes and reduce the
total cost of care for specific high-risk groups of patients enrolled in
Minnesota health care programs; and
(2) reduce administrative burdens and costs for health care providers and state agencies."
