Proposed measures: MRMIB will assess its effectiveness in meeting these goals for the insurance program. MRMIB’s enrollment contractor will track the percentage of insurance program applications which are approved without being mailed back for additional information, and will ensure that the average time interval between receipt of application and establishment of eligibility is no more than 10 days. By July 1, 1998, MRMIB will ensure that all enrollment materials for the insurance program are available in the threshold languages identified by DHS and that materials are available at an eighth grade reading level. By June 1, 1998, DHS will develop a work plan for creating a simplified Medi-Cal application. By April 1, 1998, DHS will have all program enrollment materials in the threshold languages. Objective 4: Assure that financial barriers do not keep families from enrolling their children in the program. Performance goals: 4.1 Limit program costs to a point where cost of participating in health coverage will not exceed two percent of a family’s annual household income. Proposed measures: California will survey uninsured persons in the target population to determine if financial barriers prevent their enrollment, and track such data longitudinally. MRMIB will also survey families disenrolling from the insurance program to assess whether cost influenced their decision to disenroll. Objective 5: Assure that health services purchased by the program are accessible to enrolled children. Performance goals: 5.1 Achieve year to year improvements in the percentage of targeted low income children that have had a visit with a primary care provider during the year.
