1 Home Health Services Prior Authorization for DDS Waiver Clients March 31, 2015
2 Introduction Welcome to the Home Care Provider Webinar These webinars are open to all Connecticut Medical Assistance Program (CMAP) enrolled home healthcare providers and serve as a platform to optimize collaboration, identify opportunities to streamline and improve processes, and increase quality of care. You are encouraged to use the Home Care Provider Forum box at HCProvForum@chnct.org to forward your questions regarding information provided at these forums, or to share recommendations for future Home Care Provider Forum agenda topics. Please feel free to share your thoughts and ask questions at the end of today s presentation. Community Health Network of Connecticut, Inc. (CHNCT) is committed to maintaining an open line of communication with the home care provider community. At CHNCT, our goal is to ensure that all HUSKY program members are able to access medically necessary care that is delivered at the right time, in the right setting, and at the most appropriate level of service. 1
3 Overview The CHNCT Prior Authorization unit will be working in conjunction with the Department of Development Services (DDS) to coordinate care for HUSKY members with DDS waiver services. The goal of this coordination will be to get the member the care they need at the right time, in the right setting, and at the most appropriate level of service. HUSKY members residing in DDS medication-certified group homes will be authorized for skilled nursing visits required to administer injectable medication or perform fasting blood sugar checks. Oral medications and g- tube feedings will be expected to be administered by the medicationcertified staff, or a transitional plan will be expected to be initiated. Home Health Aide services should not be required for a HUSKY member residing in a group home. Personal care assistance is part of the services that are provided by the group home staff. 2
4 Overview (cont.) Skilled wound care may be required for HUSKY members in a group home, and will only be authorized as per coordination of benefits. If the HUSKY member is homebound (i.e., it is considered a taxing effort to leave the home because he/she requires the aid of a wheelchair/cane, or the assistance of a person) and has Medicare prime, the wound care should be billed to Medicare first. Medicare does consider care performed to maintain the status of an individual s condition, or to slow or prevent the deterioration of the condition, as skilled care. Therefore, skilled wound care is coverable under Medicare. It is important to note that the ongoing need for skilled level of care must be documented in order to receive reimbursement from Medicare. Please refer to the Provider Bulletin on the publications page of the website or Chapter 11 on the same site for further billing instructions. 3
