25 Growth Trends: Challenges and Opportunities National health care reform Dramatically expanded coverage for previously uninsured persons in poverty with addictions New models of integrated behavioral health with primary care and increased demand for SUD treatment services Increased federal funds leverage (FFP) Requirements for professionalized SUD providers skilled in evidence-based practices, DMC documentation, and billing DMC and other insurers 25

26 Growth Trends: Challenges and Opportunities Prison reform Increased county responsibility for services to promote jail diversion and decrease recidivism Recognition of high rate of substance use disorders among offenders Increased referrals to substance use disorder services by criminal justice departments 26

27 Growth trends: Challenges and Opportunities Drug Medi-Cal (DMC) Waiver Timeline: Likely to be approved by CMS in early April, opt in plan by Bay Area Counties submitted in July Primary purpose: Design and implement an organized delivery system for SUD services Increased flexibility in: provider contracting, covered services, rate setting Increased accountability for: Access to services, care management, quality management 27

28 Guiding Principles for Strategic Planning: Individualized Treatment 1. Recovery from severe alcohol and/or drug dependence is a long-term process comparable in many respects to management of diabetes or hypertension - In medical terms, chronic disease management is a more appropriate model than acute care 2. Persons requesting treatment should be provided with the most appropriate type and amount of treatment according to an assessment of their condition, need and motivation using American Society of Addiction Medicine (ASAM) Criteria 3. Clients in treatment should be regularly reassessed and the type and amount of treatment should be adjusted to address ongoing changes in the client s condition, need and motivation 4. Clients in treatment should receive skills training in how to manage their alcohol and/or drug dependence to prevent relapse 5. Clients with co-occurring physical and/or mental health conditions should be treated for those conditions with a well-coordinated, integrated approach. 28

29 Guiding Principles for Strategic Planning: Cost Effectiveness 1. Providing clients with the care that best addresses their condition, needs and motivation is more cost-efficient and effective 2. The cost of providing inappropriate, ineffective care will likely be experienced outside ACBHCS by: - the clients: physical health problems, lost productivity, emotional suffering, social disconnection, etc. - the clients family: physical & emotional abuse, poverty, trauma - other county departments: increased use of emergency rooms & other medical services, increased arrests & incarcerations, etc. - society: lost productivity, decreased tax revenues, increased expenditures in county services 3. Measuring, monitoring and managing service quality and outcomes should be conducted within the framework of a chronic disease management model rather than an acute care model, and within an integrated approach to co-occurring conditions. 29

30 Guiding Principles for Strategic Planning: Organized System of Care 1. A continuum of services to address the range of client treatment needs 2. Use of American Society of Addiction Medicine Criteria to screen and match clients to the level of care and treatment that best fits their needs 4. Well coordinated care between providers, including warm handoffs from one program to the next as clients needs change 5. Staff training and incentives to implement evidence-based treatments 6. Performance measures to monitor and improve service quality and treatment outcomes 7. Learning collaboratives and other initiatives to encourage ongoing quality improvement. 30

31 Planning for the Future: Next steps Develop implementation plan for DMC Waiver Design and implement call center for screening, referrals and care management of SUD residential services Establish recovery residence + outpatient level of care with partial repurposing of SAPT Block Grant funds Assist CBOs to build infrastructure for staff training, chart documentation to meet DMC requirements, billing, and sustainability Resource and build BHCS staff infrastructure to manage access and quality of an organized delivery system for SUD services 31
