Overview: MLTSS Program 7
MLTSS Overview Historically the State of NJ had four waivers: ACCAP TBI GO CRPD Please note that the CCW Waiver is not part of MLTSS. As of 7/1/2014 the State of NJ is combining the services provided under these four waivers into one waiver, Managed Long Term Care Services and Supports (MLTSS). The benefits covered under this new waiver will move from Fee-for-Service Medicaid to Managed Care. The Managed Care Organizations (MCOs) will be responsible for reimbursement of these services effective 7/1/2014. Authorizations provided under Fee-for-Service Medicaid will remain in effect during the Continuity of Care period. Assessments will be made by a Care Coordinator and that time a new authorization will be provided to the provider. 8

What s changing/not changing for Assisted Living? Any service that was considered inclusive of your Assisted Living per diem remains inclusive of your Assisted Living per diem. Any service that you received separate reimbursement for (in addition to your AL per diem) under FFS you will receive separate reimbursement for when billing United. Procedures on how you handle a member coming into an AL that is not currently approved for Medicaid and will be applying for Medicaid coverage will not change. United will not be responsible for any payment to the AL or other MLTSS provider until the member is enrolled with United. There is no retro enrollment to an MCO for members that are newly enrolled to Medicaid. Assignment to an MCO takes place prospectively. 11
Description of Units Per Diem one unit equals once per day, only one unit can be billed per date of service. Per Service one unit equals one service (i.e. one PERS instillation set up would be one unit of service). Per Meal one meal equals one unit of service. Per Month one unit equals one unit of service, only one unit can be billed per month. Per Hour one unit equals one hour of service. Per 15 Minutes one unit equals 15 minutes of service. 12
Member Liability Members receiving services in an Assisted Living Facility or via Adult Family Care may be subject to member liability. If a member has member liability it is the responsibility of the provider to collect payment from the member. Your explanation of benefits will reflect whether member responsibility is applicable. Any payment due to the provider will be less any member liability if applicable. 13
Prior Authorization Requirements and Continuity of Care 14
Prior Authorization Required Prior Authorization is required for ALL MLTSS services regardless of whether the provider is participating or non-participating. The Complete Prior Authorization List for Medicaid and MLTSS is available under the Billing & Reference Guides Tab at: www.uhccommunityplan.com. Dedicated MLTSS Intake/Prior Authorization number is (800) 262.0305. 15
Continuity of Care All State approved services will be authorized until the member is assessed by his/her care manager Once the member is assessed a new service plan will be created with corresponding authorizations where necessary All MLTSS requests prior to 7/1/14 are the responsibility of the State The State is providing prior authorization files to UHC that contain the services that members receive under FFS prior to 7/1/14 UHC is responsible for services once the individual s Medicaid eligibility is confirmed AND is enrolled in managed care. 16
Long Term Care Team UHC has a dedicated unit to provide customer service for MLTSS members All members receiving MLTSS services will receive a face to face assessment for evaluation of needs Providers/members are provided with a direct line for contacting their Care Manager (800) 645-9409 Members can reach a nurse 24x7 by calling Member Services or the Nurseline at 888-433-1904. 17
Gaps in care and when a new authorization is required Provider gets authorization to service a member. During the authorized time frame the member transfers to a new agency. Within the same authorized time frame the member decides to transfer back to the original agency. The agency will need to obtain a new authorization to resume servicing the member. When ever a member transfers agencies the authorization tied to the previous agency is always end dated. Provider gets authorization to service a member. Member goes on vacation for X amount of time. Member returns to same agency. The agency does not need to get a new authorization to resume services. Agency must notify the MCO that the member is on vacation to avoid an unable to contact issue resulting in a critical incident. * Please note provider should not bill for services when member is on vacation. Provider gets authorization to service a member. Member enters hospital or SNF for less than 30 days. Member returns home to same agency. The agency does not need to get a new authorization to resume services. Agency must notify the MCO and potentially the member may require a face to face assessment. Provider gets authorization to service a member. Member enters hospital or SNF for 30 days or more. Member returns home to same agency. The agency must get a new authorization for services. The agency can continue to service the member at the previously approved hours until a face to face assessment is completed. 18
19 Utilization Management

HIPAA Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) 1996 Improves the portability and continuity of health benefits Ensures greater accountability in the area of healthcare fraud Standardize both medical and non-medical codes across the entire health care industry Under HIPAA, all local medical service codes must now be replaced with appropriate HCPCS and CPT-4 codes. Among other types of acceptable disclosures, providers are permitted to disclose protected health information (PHI) to health plans for the purpose of quality assurance, quality improvement, and accreditation activities. No authorization needed from the patient when both the provider and health plan had a relationship with the patient and the information relates to that relationship. 21

29 Unable to Contact & Gaps in Care
Unable to Contact Unable to Contact shall be defined as an MLTSS Member who is absent, without notification, from any program or service offered and MLTSS provider is unable to identify the location of the Member using contact information available. In the event that an MLTSS Member is unable to be contacted, MLTSS providers must take the following steps in investigating and reporting unable to contact events: 1. Immediate outreach to the client using contact information on file. 2. If no response, immediate outreach to emergency contact(s) for Member. 3. If unsuccessful to the above, immediately notify the Member s MLTSS Care Manager. 30
Gaps in Care Gap in Care - the difference between the number of hours or services scheduled in a Member s plan of care and the hours or services that are actually delivered to that Member. When a provider is aware of an upcoming gap in care, it is required to contact the Member before the scheduled service to advise him/her that the regular caregiver will be unavailable, that the Member may choose to receive the service from a back-up substitute caregiver, at an alternative time from the regular caregiver or from an alternate caregiver from the Member s informal support system. 31 Whenever there is a gap in services, the provider must contact the Member immediately, acknowledging the gap and provide an explanation as to the reason for the gap, and the alternative plan being created to resolve the particular gap and any likely future gaps. The provider must also notify the Member s MLTSS Care Manager of any gaps.
