I. GENERAL PROVISIONS

A. The purpose of this Chapter is to establish principles of reimbursement that shall apply to each intermediate care facility for individuals with intellectual disabilities (ICF/IID) participating in the District of Columbia Medicaid program.

B. An ICF/IID that is eligible to receive reimbursement under this chapter shall be certified as a Level 2 group home for mentally retarded persons (GHMRP), by the Department of Health (DOH), pursuant to 22 DCMR §§ 3100 et seq. for a period up to fifteen (15) months.

C. Medicaid reimbursement to ICFs/IID for services provided beginning on or after October 1, 2012, shall be on a prospective payment system consistent with the requirements set forth in this Chapter.

D. The Department of Health Care Finance (DHCF) shall pay for ICF/IID services through the use of rates that are reasonable and adequate to meet the costs that must be incurred by efficiently, economically operated facilities in order to provide services in conformity with applicable District and Federal laws, regulations, and quality and safety standards. DHCF applied consistent financial principles in developing the reimbursement methodology described in this chapter, including the following:

1. Basing payment rates on the acuity of each beneficiary, as determined by DHCF, or its designee; :

2. Establishing uniform reimbursement of services constituting the active treatment program for individuals who meet the requirements of 42 C.F.R. § 483.440(a);

3. Establishing consistent payment rates across the District of Columbia for the same classes of facilities serving individuals with comparable levels of need; and

4. One (1) day, inclusive of residential care and active treatment services, shall ; constitute the unit of service.

E. DHCF assures that the reimbursement methodology and policies set forth in this State Plan Amendment meet the requirements of 42 C.F.R. §§ 447.250 et seg. and 42 C.F.R. § 430.10.

industry average reported expenses per licensed bed day for the line items included in the cost center, and shall be uniformly set for all providers.

. Administration cost center reimbursement rates shall be calculated based on the staffing ratios, facility size, and individuals’ acuity levels. The Administration rate shall vary based on the nature of ownership of the physical premises where the ICF/IID is

housed. The Administration rate shall be a uniform percentage of the sum of the rates for all other cost centers and acuity levels, as set forth in the D.C. Municipal Regulations.

. Non-Emergency Transportation cost center reimbursement rates shall be based on the industry average expenses divided by the total number of licensed bed days. The industry average expense is determined based on the rate charged by the District’s Non- Emergency Transportation broker for services provided to beneficiaries with comparable medical need (i.e., enrolled in the 1915(c) ID/DD HCBS Waiver). This rate is then adjusted to account for group-based transportation of ICF/IID residents, using an average of two beneficiaries being present for each round-trip.

. Capital cost center reimbursement rates shall be calculated in accordance with 42 C.F.R. § 413.130 and based on the industry average reported expenses per licensed bed day for the line items included in this cost center as described above and the rate shall vary based on the nature of ownership of the physical premises where the ICF/IID is housed. The Capital rate for leased premises shall be equal to the industry average reported expenses per licensed bed day for the line items included. The Capital rate for provider-owned premises shall be equal to fifty percent (50%) of the rate for leased premises. The Capital rate shall also be subject to the following principles:

1, When a sale/leaseback of an existing ICF/IID facility occurs, the ICF/IID’s allowable capital related cost may not exceed the amount that the facility would have included had the facility retained legal title;

2. When a depreciable asset is acquired, the cost basis of the depreciable asset is the . lesser of the net book value of the previous owner or the fair market value;

3. Facilities must employ the straight-line method for calculating depreciation; accelerated methods for calculating depreciation are not acceptable. The amount of an annual depreciation is determined by first reducing the cost of the assets by any salvage value and then dividing by the number of years of useful life of the asset.

Supplement 5 to Attachment 4.19-B 1

TN# 19-005 Approval Date: February 3, 2020 Effective Date: February 1, 2020 Supersedes TN# NEW Medicaid Reimbursement Methodology for Programs of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE)

This Section applies to reimbursement for Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE) services described in Supplement 7 to Attachment 3.1-A, Page 6-7 and Supplement 4 to Attachment 3.1-B, Page 6- 7.

Federal regulation requires that states pay PACE organizations a monthly capitated payment that: • Is less than the amount Medicaid would otherwise have paid for PACE eligible individuals under the state plan (commonly referred to as the “amount that would otherwise have been paid” (AWOP) for PACE); • Takes into account the comparative frailty of the PACE population; and • Is a fixed amount regardless of participant’s health status. The District will utilize a payment methodology that fulfills the requirements set forth above. A general description of the methodology follows: The District will obtain the most recent Medicaid claims available and calculate Medicaid costs incurred for two categories of beneficiaries: individuals residing in nursing facilities and individuals enrolled in home-and-community-based services (HCBS). To better capture the frailty of the PACE eligible population, the nursing facility population will be limited to long-term users, such as those with stays of at least three months, and the HCBS population will be limited to those in the District’s 1915(c) Elderly and Physically Disabled (EPD) waiver, as these individuals must meet a nursing facility level-of-care standard to qualify. Medicaid costs for those two populations will be blended in proportions that reflect their expected enrollment in PACE. In its analysis, the District may make the following exclusions or adjustments: • Those enrolled in managed care plans will be excluded. Most beneficiaries who qualify as elderly or due to disability are exempted from the managed care program. • Sub-categories of beneficiaries who are not relevant to PACE, such as Qualified Medicare Beneficiaries (QMBs), will be excluded. • Costs that do not reflect services covered under PACE, such as patient liability or spend- down amounts, will be excluded. • The District will account for any other factors as necessary, including, but not limited to, claims processing time lag; pharmacy rebates; programmatic changes; health care cost inflation; any irrelevant payments, such as DSH, GME, and IME; third party liability; and copayments. The District will calculate a per-member-per-month (pmpm) payment rate based on a percentage of the PACE AWOP. Depending on cost patterns observed in the analysis above, the District may implement separate capitated rates for dual eligible and Medicaid-only PACE enrollees or other sub-groups. The final rate(s) will never be equal to or more than the PACE AWOP.

The purpose of this amendment is to renew the District of Columbia’s 1915(i) State Plan HCBS benefit. The effective date for this renewal is April 1, 2020. Enclosed is a copy of the approved SPA. Since the state has elected to target the population who can receive these §1915(i) State Plan HCBS, CMS approves this SPA for a five-year period, in accordance with §1915(i)(7) of the Social Security Act. To renew the §1915(i) State Plan HCBS benefit for an additional five-year period, the state must submit a renewal application to CMS at least 180 days prior to the end of the approval period. CMS’ approval of a renewal request is contingent upon state adherence to federal requirements and the state meeting its objectives with respect to quality improvement and beneficiary outcomes. Per 42 CFR §441.745(a)(i), the state will annually provide CMS with the projected number of individuals to be enrolled in the benefit and the actual number of unduplicated individuals enrolled in the §1915(i) State Plan HCBS in the previous year. Additionally, at least 21 months prior to the end of the five-year approval period, the state must submit evidence of the state’s quality monitoring in accordance with the Quality Improvement Strategy in their approved SPA. The evidence must include data analysis, findings, remediation, and describe any system improvement for each of the §1915(i) requirements. It is important to note that CMS’ approval of this 1915(i) HCBS state plan benefit solely addresses the state’s compliance with the applicable Medicaid authorities. CMS’ approval does not address the state’s independent and separate obligations under federal laws including, but not limited to, the Americans with Disabilities Act, Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act, or the Supreme Court’s Olmstead decision.

Responsibility for Performing Evaluations / Reevaluations. Eligibility for the State plan HCBS benefit must be determined through an independent evaluation of each individual). Independent evaluations/reevaluations to determine whether applicants are eligible for the State plan HCBS benefit are performed (Select one): { Directly by the Medicaid agency 9 By Other (specify State agency or entity under contract with the State Medicaid agency): The DC Aging and Disability Resource Center (ADRC) performs evaluations/ reevaluations of eligibility for State Plan HCBS in accordance with its interagency agreement with DHCF. 2. Qualifications of Individuals Performing Evaluation/Reevaluation. The independent evaluation is performed by an agent that is independent and qualified. There are qualifications (that are reasonably related to performing evaluations) for the individual responsible for evaluation/reevaluation of needs- based eligibility for State plan HCBS. (Specify qualifications): Initial assessments /reassessments of needs-based eligibility criteria are conducted by a registered nurse (RN) or licensed independent clinical social worker (LICSW) employed by DHCF’s LTCSS Contractor. The assessment/reassessment determinations are then released to the ADRC for evaluations/revaluations of eligibility. The ADRC staff responsible for the evaluations/reevaluations are licensed social workers. 3. Process for Performing Evaluation/Reevaluation. Describe the process for evaluating whether individuals meet the needs-based State plan HCBS eligibility criteria and any instrument(s) used to make this determination. If the reevaluation process differs from the evaluation process, describe the differences: The beneficiary first must get a LTCSS Prescription Order Form (POF) signed by an enrolled Medicaid provider (MD or APRN), which identifies the age of the individual as well as any diagnosed chronic medical conditions. To initiate the LTCSS face-to-face assessment process, the signed POF is sent directly to DHCF’s LTCSS Contractor or uploaded into DC CareConnect. Upon receipt of the POF, DHCF’s LTCSS Contractor schedules and then conducts the face-to-face assessment of the beneficiary’s need for LTCSS using a standardized assessment tool that has been designed and validated for all long-term care populations. The needs-based criteria for the State Plan HCBS benefit, including ADHP services, is developed and determined by DHCF. As noted above, assessments and reassessments will be conducted in-person by a RN or LICSW employed/contracted by DHCF’s LTCSS Contractor. The assessment tool identifies a beneficiary’s needs across multiple domains, including functional, clinical, and behavioral; the resulting numerical score indicates whether the individual meets the needs-based eligibility criteria for the 1915(i) HCBS benefit. Once DHCF’s LTCSS Contractor has completed the assessment, the findings are immediately available to ADRC in DC CareConnect. ADRC then evaluates information/documentation in DC Care Connect and determines whether the individual is eligible for the 1915(i) State Plan HCBS benefit. If any individual is found not to meet the eligibility criteria, the individual has the right to request a reconsideration and/or fair hearing.

(By checking this box the state assures that): Needs-based criteria are used to evaluate and reevaluate whether an individual is eligible for State plan HCBS. The criteria take into account the individual’s support needs, and may include other risk factors: (Specify the needs-based criteria): To be eligible for 1915(i) ADHP services, an individual has to obtain a minimum score of four (4) on the assessment tool. The needs-based criteria are determined by a standardized assessment tool which evaluates the individual’s care and support needs across three domains: (1) functional; (2) skilled care; and (3) cognitive/behavioral. 1) Functional - Type and frequency of assistance required with activities of daily living such as bathing, dressing, eating/feeding, eating/feeding, transferring, mobility, and toileting. 2) Skilled Care – Occurrence and frequency of certain treatments/procedures, skilled care (e.g. wound care, infusions), medical visits, and other types of formal care. 3) Cognitive/Behavioral – Presence of and frequency with which certain conditions and behaviors occur (e.g., communications impairments, hallucinations or delusions, physical/verbal behavioral symptoms, eloping or wandering). Completion of the assessment will yield a final total score determined by adding up the individual scores from the three domains. 6. ; Needs-based Institutional and Waiver Criteria. (By checking this box the state assures that): There are needs-based criteria for receipt of institutional services and participation in certain waivers that are more stringent than the criteria above for receipt of State plan HCBS. If the state has revised institutional level of care to reflect more stringent needs-based criteria, individuals receiving institutional services and participating in certain waivers on the date that more stringent criteria become effective are exempt from the new criteria until such time as they no longer require that level of care.

The assessment meets federal requirements at 42 CFR §441.720. 2. ; Based on the independent assessment, there is a person-centered service plan for each individual determined to be eligible for the State plan HCBS benefit. The person-centered service plan is developed using a person-centered planning process in accordance with 42 CFR §441.725(a), and the written person- centered service plan meets federal requirements at 42 CFR §441.725(b). 3. ; The person-centered service plan is reviewed, and revised upon reassessment of functional need as required under 42 CFR §441.720, at least every 12 months, when the individual’s circumstances or needs change significantly, and at the request of the individual. 4. Responsibility for Face-to-Face Assessment of an Individual’s Support Needs and Capabilities. There are educational/professional qualifications (that are reasonably related to performing assessments) of the individuals who will be responsible for conducting the independent assessment, including specific training in assessment of individuals with need for HCBS. (Specify qualifications): DHCF’s LTCSS Contractor will perform face-to-face assessments to determine eligibility for all LTCSS programs. In particular, the initial face-to-face assessment will assess the participant’s level of need for all LTCSS including State Plan HCBS benefit by using a standardized assessment tool. The LTCSS contractor will also perform reassessments at least once every twelve (12) month period, or whenever there is a significant change to the person’s health or service needs. The face-to-face assessment will be performed by an RN or LICSW employed by DHCF’s LTCSS Contractor. The staff performing the assessment will be licensed health care professionals trained in assessment of individuals with physical, cognitive, or mental conditions that trigger a potential for HCBS services and supports. Each RN and LICSW will be licensed or authorized to practice pursuant to qualifications prescribed by the District of Columbia Department of Health, Health Occupation and Regulations Act. 5. Responsibility for Development of Person-Centered Service Plan. There are qualifications (that are reasonably related to developing service plans) for persons responsible for the development of the individualized, person-centered service plan. (Specify qualifications): The Aging, Disability, and Resource Center (ADRC), through an MOU with DHCF, will be responsible for developing the person-centered service plan. The person-centered service plans will be developed in consultation with the beneficiary, the beneficiary’s guardian or representative, and any other person(s) chosen by the individual. Staff and agents performing person-centered service plans (PCSPs) are licensed social workers employed by ADRC. The ADRC staff/agents performing the PCSPs also must have intake assessment and options counseling experience, have completed person-centered thinking (PCT) trainings, have current knowledge of available resources, services options and providers, and be knowledgeable regarding best practices to improve health and quality of life outcomes.

Supporting the Participant in Development of Person-Centered Service Plan. Supports and information are made available to the participant (and/or the additional parties specified, as appropriate) to direct and be actively engaged in the person-centered service plan development process. (Specify: (a) the supports and information made available, and (b) the participant’s authority to determine who is included in the process): The person-centered service plan shall be based on a person-centered planning approach. The person-centered planning process shall be directed by the individual with long-term support needs and may include a representative whom the individual has freely chosen and others chosen by the individual to contribute to the process. The minimum requirements of the person-centered planning process are that the process results in a person-centered service plan with individually identified goals and preferences, including those related to community participation, health care and wellness, education, and others. The plan will reflect the services and supports to be received, and who provides them. The planning process, and the resulting person-centered service plan, will assist the individual in achieving personally defined outcomes in the most integrated community setting, ensure delivery of services in a manner that reflects personal preferences and choices, and contribute to the assurance of health and welfare. During the person-centered planning process, each person and their representative shall receive information regarding all services and supports for which they are eligible based upon the results of the face-to-face assessment. Once they have made a choice of service type, they will receive information regarding qualified providers. Trained staff, who are experienced in providing “options” counseling will assist persons to make an informed choice based upon his/her needs and preferences. All information will be presented in simple and easily understood English and individuals with limited English proficiency will receive services that are culturally and linguistically appropriate. Additionally, persons with disabilities will be provided with alternative formats and other assistance to ensure equal access. 7. Informed Choice of Providers. (Describe how participants are assisted in obtaining information about and selecting from among qualified providers of the 1915(i) services in the person-centered service plan): At the ADRC, each beneficiary is given a choice of 1915(i) ADHP providers from which to select. This information is provided by a licensed social worker staff person at the ADRC during the intake and assessment process, PCSP development process, and as well as via informational materials on the 1915(i) benefit /program—includes both general and ADHP-specific materials. Additional information on the 1915(i) benefit and a District ADHP provider directory are both available on DHCF’s Long Term Care Administration website. . Once the beneficiary has selected an ADHP provider, based on the information and guidance provided by the ADRC, and has a completed PCSP, they will work with a designated staff person at the ADHP provider site to develop a written plan of care. The designated staff at the ADHP provider will have primary responsibility for developing a written plan of care to implement each person’s PCSP. In doing so, the staff person will play an essential role in assisting persons to learn about the various professionals offering

Process for Making Person-Centered Service Plan Subject to the Approval of the Medicaid Agency. (Describe the process by which the person-centered service plan is made subject to the approval of the Medicaid agency): The SMA or its designee will review each person-centered service plan as part of their administrative authority. Once the person-centered service plan has been completed by the ADRC, the QIO reviews and approves it using the District’s electronic case management system. Following approval, the QIO creates a service authorization. 9. Maintenance of Person-Centered Service Plan Forms. Written copies or electronic facsimiles of service plans are maintained for a minimum period of 3 years as required by 45 CFR §74.53. Service plans are maintained by the following (check each that applies):

Medicaid agency ; Operating agency

Case manager ; Other (specify): Service providers Services 1. State plan HCBS. (Complete the following table for each service. Copy table as needed): Service Specifications (Specify a service title for the HCBS listed in Attachment 4.19-B that the state plans to cover): Service Title: Adult Day Health Services Program (ADHP) Service Definition (Scope): ADHPs provide essential services including social service supports, therapeutic activities meals, medication administration, and transportation to therapeutic activities for adults, age fifty-five (55) and over, during the day, in a safe community setting outside of his or her home. Each community setting will be enrolled as a Medicaid provider of ADHP services. Adult day health includes the following services: medical and nursing consultation services including health counseling to improve the health, safety and psycho-social needs of participants; individual and group therapeutic activities, including social, recreational and educational activities provided by licensed therapists such as an occupational or physical therapist, and speech language pathologist; social service supports provided by a social service professional including consultations to determine the individual’s need for services, offering guidance through counseling and teaching on matters related to the person’s health, safety, and general welfare; direct care supports services to provide direct supports like supports and services at the ADHP provider site, and selecting qualified providers and professionals to deliver their array of services. In this way, participants will exercise their freedom of choice as it relates to which providers and professionals to select to obtain ADHP services and supports. If additional options counseling is needed or desired, the beneficiary may be referred back to the Aging and Disability Resource Center (ADRC) for information regarding available services and to obtain information about qualified providers. ADRC staff offers options counseling to persons who desire assistance to select or change qualified providers.

Participants will also be provided with nutrition and meal services consisting of nutritional education, training, and counseling to participants and their families, and provision of meals and snacks while in attendance at the ADHP setting; however, meals provided as part of these services shall not constitute a full nutritional regimen (3 meals a day). All services will be paid for through bundled per-diem rates. Each participant will receive services based upon their strength, preferences and health care needs as reflected by their level of need and person-centered plan. Once an applicant requests the receipt of LTCSS, DHCF’s LTCSS Contractor, will conduct a face-to-face assessment of the individuals physical, cognitive, and behavioral health care and support needs, strengths and preferences, available service and housing options and availability of unpaid caregiver support to determine the individual’s level of care (LOC) for long-term care services and supports. This assessment process to determine non-financial eligibility is also the prior authorization of State Plan HCBS services. The assessment process uses a standardized assessment tool and results in a numerical score that identifies the individual’s level of need. Recognizing that some participants may have more complex needs (such as a greater need for supervision or support), DHCF has developed two reimbursement rates – one for those who meet the threshold eligibility criteria based upon their assessed needs (Acuity level 1) and the other for those whose assessed needs are higher (Acuity level 2). The enhanced rates recognize that staffing levels must increase when participants have higher acuity levels. Additional needs-based criteria for receiving the service, if applicable (specify): Specify limits (if any) on the amount, duration, or scope of this service. Per 42 CFR Section 440.240, services available to any categorically needy recipient cannot be less in amount, duration and scope than those services available to a medically needy recipient, and services must be equal for any individual within a group. States must also separately address standard state plan service questions related to sufficiency of services.

Method for Evaluating Effectiveness of System Changes x As part of its Quality Improvement Strategy, the State Medicaid Agency proposes to work collaboratively with the provider to examine systems, identify issues, evaluate factors impacting the delivery of services, design corrective actions and measure the success of system improvement. The SMA has primary day to day responsibility for assuring that there is an effective and efficient quality management system is in place. The SMA will work with internal and external stakeholders and make recommendations regarding enhancements to the quality management system on an ongoing basis. x The focus of system improvement will be on the discovery of issues, remediation, monitoring action taken, and making system improvement when necessary. Information gathered at the individual and provider level will be used to remedy situations on those levels and to inform overall system performance and improvements. x On an annual basis, the provider will submit a program evaluation report which summarizes program and operational performance throughout the year. Based on the data contained in the report, input from stakeholders and the outcome of monitoring activities conducted by the SMA, the SMA will evaluate key performance measures indicators and the provider’s quality management system. Results of this evaluation may demonstrate a need to change performance indicators, including changing priorities; using different approaches to ensure progress; modifying roles and responsibilities, and data sources in order to obtain the information needed for system changes. x Upon identification of deficiencies the provider will be required to implement satisfactory improvements within timeframe identified by SMA. Each deficiency may require different timelines based on the impact the deficiency has on the delivery of services. Providers will be notified of deficiencies during face: face meetings, by email or through the SMA documentation, and submission of a discovery/remediation tool.

HCBS Personal Care ; HCBS Adult Day Health Reimbursement for adult day health services associated with the 1915(i) HCBS State Plan Option shall be paid based upon uniform per-diem rates at two acuity levels. Acuity level 1 and Acuity level 2 services shall be reimbursed in accordance with the District of Columbia Medicaid Fee Schedule. The agency’s fee schedule rate will be set as of 4/1/2020 and will be effective for services provided on or after that date. All rates are published on the agency’s website at https://www.dc- medicaid.com/dcwebportal/nonsecure/feeScheduleDownload. Except as otherwise noted in the Plan, State developed fee schedule rates are the same for both governmental and private individual practitioners and the fee schedule and any annual/periodic adjustments to the fee schedule are published in the DHCF Provider Web Portal available at www.dc-medicaid.com/dcwebportal/home. ADHPs will be reimbursed at two different acuity levels. To be eligible for reimbursement at acuity level 1 ADHP services, an individual shall obtain a total score of four (4) or five (5). To be eligible for reimbursement at acuity level 2 ADHP services, an individual shall obtain a total score of six (6) or higher. The specific acuity level does not affect the benefit package received by an individual. ADHP consists of one set of services that are available to all participants, regardless of acuity level. Each participant will receive services based upon their strength, preferences and health care needs as reflected by their level of need and person-centered service plan. Recognizing that some participants may have more complex needs (such as a greater need for supervision or support), DHCF has developed two reimbursement rates – one for those who meet the threshold eligibility criteria based upon their assessed needs and the other, for those whose assessed needs are higher. The enhanced rates recognize that staffing levels must increase when participants have higher acuity levels.

State: District of Columbia §1915(i) State plan HCBS State plan Attachment 4.19–B, Part I: TN: 19-007 Page 30 Effective: April 1, 2020 Approved: March 18, 2020 Supersedes: 14-004 Adult Day Health providers are defined in this Attachment. Reimbursement for adult day health services is paid using two bundled per-diem rates that are reasonable and adequate to meet the costs incurred by an efficient and economically prudent provider. The bundled per-diem rate consists of staffing costs in addition to program materials, indirect costs, and administrative costs. Room and board are excluded in the per-diem rates. The per diem rates are binding rates; the District will pay each provider a fixed per-diem rate. The District will pay the lesser of the per-diem rate or the amount billed by a provider in accordance with standard Medicaid payment methodology. The staffing structure used to develop the rates were tied to the program requirements and is sufficient to allow providers to meet all program requirements, but they are not bound to adhere to the wages or benefit rates included in the rate model beyond compliance with existing federal and District laws (such as our living wage laws) and the program requirements outlined in the SPA. The agency’s per diem rates will be effective on the date of approval, for any services provided on or after that date. Except as otherwise noted in the Plan, State developed per-diem rates are the same for both governmental and private individual practitioners and will be published via transmittal available at https://www.dc- medicaid.com. Staffing, wages, and benefits The model incorporates five principle types of employees to ensure adequate staffing to meet beneficiary needs and program requirements. These include direct support personnel (DSP) providing hands-on support and care; social services professionals delivering services and programming; a program director; a registered nurse (RN); and a medical director. The cost of each of these staff types was estimated as a function of five data points: (1) the base wage or salary required to recruit and retain qualified staff and to meet District living wage law; (2) the hour paid staff would be on-duty at the program, as well as hours for paid leave; (3) the ratio of each staff member to beneficiaries attending the program; (4) the number of days in a fiscal year a program would reasonably be operating; and (5) the additional cost of providing employee benefits such as health insurance or other fringe benefits as appropriate. Information about these five data points and how they were determined for each of the five staffing types are shown in the table below. Base wage or salary Hours on duty per fiscal year Ratio of staff member to beneficiaries Number of operating days Marginal addition for fringe benefits

State: District of Columbia §1915(i) State plan HCBS State plan Attachment 4.19–B, Part I: TN: 19-007 Page 32 Effective: April 1, 2020 Approved: March 18, 2020 Supersedes: 14-004 beneficiary rates using an expected operating year of 260 days and expected program size of 40 beneficiaries. After summing the staffing component and the program and indirect costs, an additional 13% was added to the rate to reflect administrative costs. The District uses this rate for other provider types and it was used here for consistency. Lastly, the rate was adjusted to reflect attendance rates; effectively, the rate was increased slightly to accommodate continued operating costs each day a provider is open for business, despite its complete census not attending every day. Service Limitations ADHP services shall not be provided to persons who reside in institutions. Providers cannot bill for services that are provided for more than five (5) days per week and for more than eight (8) hours per day. Additionally, providers will not be reimbursed for ADHP services if the participant is receiving the following services concurrently (i.e., during the same hours on the date of service): (a) Day Habilitation and Individualized Day Supports under the 1915(c) Waiver for Individuals with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities (ID/DD); (b) Intensive day treatment or day treatment mental health rehabilitative services (MHRS); (c) Personal Care Aide services; (State Plan and 1915(c) waivers), or (d) Services funded by the Older Americans Act of 1965, Title IV, Public Law 89-73, 79 Stat. 218, as amended; Public Law 97-115, 95 Stat. 1595; Public Law 98-459, 98 Stat. 1767; Public Law 100-175; Public Law 100-628, 42 U.S.C. 3031-3037b; Public Law 102-375; Public Law 106-501.

Cost Effectiveness Determination 1. The cost-effectiveness determination is performed: 2. The calculation is made at the individual level, using the following methodology: Description: (a) The Department of Health Care Finance (DHCF) shall employ the following methodology upon a child’s initial application to determine cost effectiveness: (1) The annual cost of the services that the child is prescribed or ordered to receive in the Care Plan will be estimated using the established District of Columbia Medicaid Fee Schedule, which shall also factor in the child’s acuity level and severity of illness, as supported in the child’s Care Plan and LOC forms; (2) The annual cost of services, if those services were provided in an institution, will be estimated by multiplying the current institutional Medicaid reimbursement rates with the number of days in one year. DHCF will use the applicable per-diem Medicaid reimbursement rates of an institution (specialty hospital, intermediate care facility, or nursing facility) enrolled in the DC Medicaid Program that most closely meets the medical needs of the child. The beneficiary’s acuity level, severity of illness, and length of stay, as supported in the child’s Care Plan and LOC forms, shall be factored into the estimation. This estimate will be the institutional/maximum allowable cost; (3) The annual Care Plan cost identified in (a)(1) will be compared with the institutional/maximum allowable cost identified in (a)(2); (4) If a cost effectiveness review using the methodology under (a)(1) – (a)(3) reveals that the estimated annual Care Plan cost identified in (a)(1) does not exceed the institutional/maximum allowable costs identified in (a)(2), the child’s annual cost of care outside of an institution is deemed cost effective; and (5) If the estimated annual Care Plan cost identified in (a)(1) exceeds the institutional/maximum allowable cost identified in (a)(2), the child shall be deemed ineligible for Medicaid coverage under the Katie Beckett eligibility group. (b) DHCF shall employ the following methodology during annual renewals to determine cost effectiveness, unless there is a significant change in services prescribed or ordered for a child: (1) Calculate the actual or estimated annual cost of care incurred for the child in the preceding year by aggregating the actual monthly costs of care; (2) Compare actual or estimated annual cost determined under (b)(1) with the institutional/maximum allowable costs that was previously determined under (a)(2); (3) If a cost effectiveness review using the methodology under (b)(1) – (b)(2) reveals that actual or estimated costs of care incurred for the child do not exceed the institutional/maximum allowable costs, the child’s annual cost of care outside of an institution is deemed cost effective; and (4) If the cost effectiveness review conducted reveals that a child’s estimated Medicaid cost of care received at home exceeds the estimated Medicaid costs of care received in an institution, the child shall be deemed ineligible for Medicaid coverage under the Katie Beckett eligibility group. (c) DHCF shall employ the methodology described under (a)(1) – (a)(3) if there is a significant change to the services prescribed or ordered for a child in the Care Plan that is submitted at annual renewal. (d) DHCF shall conduct a new cost effectiveness review using the methodology set forth under (a)(1) – (a)(3) if additional services are prescribed or ordered for the child before the end of the child’s eligibility period. a. Annually b. Semi-annually c. Other frequency: a. Standard methodology is used. b. An alternative methodology is used.

Melisa Byrd Medicaid Director Department of Health Care Finance 441 4th Street, N.W., 9th Floor, South Washington, DC 20001

Re: District of Columbia State Plan Amendment (SPA) 23-0001

Dear Director Byrd:

We have reviewed the proposed amendment and accompanying section 1135 waivers to add section 7.5 Medicaid Disaster Relief for the COVID-19 National Emergency to your Medicaid state plan, as submitted on March 3, 2023 under transmittal number (TN) 23-0001. This amendment proposes to implement temporary policies, which are different from those policies and procedures otherwise applied under your Medicaid state plan, during the period of the Presidential and Secretarial emergency declarations related to the COVID-19 outbreak (or any renewals thereof).

On March 13, 2020, the President of the United States issued a proclamation that the COVID-19 outbreak in the United States constitutes a national emergency by the authorities vested in him by the Constitution and the laws of the United States, including sections 201 and 301 of the National Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 1601 et seq.), and consistent with section 1135 of the Social Security Act (Act). On March 13, 2020, pursuant to section 1135(b) of the Act, the Secretary of the United States Department of Health and Human Services invoked his authority to waive or modify certain requirements of titles XVIII, XIX, and XXI of the Act as a result of the consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic, to the extent necessary, as determined by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), to ensure that sufficient health care items and services are available to meet the needs of individuals enrolled in the respective programs and to ensure that health care providers that furnish such items and services in good faith, but are unable to comply with one or more of such requirements as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, may be reimbursed for such items and services and exempted from sanctions for such noncompliance, absent any determination of fraud or abuse. This authority took effect as of 6PM Eastern Standard Time on March 15, 2020, with a retroactive effective date of March 1, 2020. The emergency period will terminate, and this state plan provision will no longer be in effect, upon termination of the public health emergency, including any extensions.

(dc-23-0001)(approval-document)(page-3)Page 3#

Pursuant to section 1135(b)(5) of the Act, for the period of the public health emergency, CMS is modifying the requirement at 42 C.F.R. 430.20 that the state submit SPAs related to the COVID- 19 public health emergency by the final day of the quarter, to obtain a SPA effective date during the quarter, enabling SPAs submitted after the last day of the quarter to have an effective date in a previous quarter, but no earlier than the effective date of the public health emergency.

The District of Columbia also requested a waiver of public notice requirements applicable to the SPA submission process. Pursuant to section 1135(b)(1)(C) of the Act, CMS is waiving public notice requirements applicable to the SPA submission process. Public notice for SPAs is required under 42 C.F.R. §447.205 for changes in statewide methods and standards for setting Medicaid payment rates, 42 C.F.R. §447.57 for changes to premiums and cost sharing, and 42 C.F.R. §440.386 for changes to Alternative Benefit Plans (ABPs). Pursuant to section 1135(b)(1)(C) of the Act, CMS is approving the state’s request to waive these notice requirements otherwise applicable to SPA submissions.

These waivers or modifications of the requirements related to SPA submission timelines and public notice apply only with respect to SPAs that meet the following criteria: (1) the SPA provides or increases beneficiary access to items and services related to COVID-19 (such as by waiving or eliminating cost sharing, increasing payment rates or amending ABPs to add services or providers); (2) the SPA does not restrict or limit payment or services or otherwise burden beneficiaries and providers; and (3) the SPA is temporary, with a specified sunset date that is not later than the last day of the declared COVID-19 public health emergency (or any extension thereof). We nonetheless encourage states to make all relevant information about the SPA available to the public so they are aware of the changes.

We conducted our review of your submittal according to the statutory requirements at section 1902(a) of the Act and implementing regulations. This letter is to inform you that the District of Columbia’s Medicaid SPA Transmittal Number 23-0001 is approved effective March 1, 2020. This SPA is in addition to all previous approved Disaster Relief SPAs, and does not supersede anything approved in those SPAs.

Enclosed is a copy of the CMS-179 summary form and the approved state plan pages.

Please contact Dan Belnap at 215-861-4273 or by email at Dan.Belnap@cms.hhs.gov if you have any questions about this approval. We appreciate the efforts of you and your staff in responding to the needs of the residents of the District of Columbia and the health care community.

Sincerely,

Alissa Mooney DeBoy

The state assures the independence of persons performing evaluations, assessments, and plans of care. Written conflict of interest standards ensure, at a minimum, that persons performing these functions are not: • related by blood or marriage to the individual, or any paid caregiver of the individual • financially responsible for the individual • empowered to make financial or health-related decisions on behalf of the individual • providers of State plan HCBS for the individual, or those who have interest in or are employed by a provider of State plan HCBS; except, at the option of the state, when providers are given responsibility to perform assessments and plans of care because such individuals are the only willing and qualified entity in a geographic area, and the state devises conflict of interest protections. (if the state chooses this option, specify the conflict of interest protections the state will implement): When an ADHP participant is enrolled in a D-SNP, the D-SNP holds a financial interest in providing the 191 S(i) ADHP service, and thus, the state must protect against conflict of interest. When the 1915(i) service is delivered through contracted arrangements with D-SNPs, the D-SNPS are the only willing and qualified entity in the geographic area to perform assessments of need and develop person-centered service plans (PCSP). The following conflict of interest safeguards are in place for developing and monitoring person-centered service plans developed by the D-SNPs: 1. All PCSPs completed by a D-SNP are reviewed and approved by the Department of Health Care Finance, or its third-party designee. 2. Contracted D-SNPs are prohibited from directly providing the l 9 l 5(i) Service. The District conducts ongoing review and monitoring of the DSNP's provider network. 3. The provider selection process is facilitated by the District's third-party LTCS contractor and contracted D-SNPs are not listed as available providers. DHCF conducts ongoing review and monitoring of provider choice counseling, ADHP provider selection process, and appeals/grievances related to the delivery of the service. All Medicaid beneficiaries are provided with disclosure of the potential conflict of interest and are supported in exercising their right to freedom of choice of providers in the D-SNP provider network and are provided information about the full range of waiver services, not just the services furnished by the D-SNP that is responsible for developing and monitoring the PCSP. 4. Beneficiaries are provided an oppo1tunity to challenge whether the D-SNP in which they are enrolled is the only willing and available provider for ADHP 191 S(i) services. Beneficiaries may also elect to access ADHP through a DSNP or, alternatively, through the Medicaid fee-for-service program. 5. All beneficiaries are advised about the Medicaid Fair Hearing process at application, annually at the PSCP meeting, and at any time upon request. The beneficiary may use the Fair Hearing process to appeal any adverse action related to the l 9 l 5(i) service; including eligibility and the amount, scope, and duration of services. The individual who performs the assessment of need and develops the person-centered services plan for an individual cannot be a provider of 1915(i) HCBS for the same participant. 6. 0 Fair Hearings and Appeals. The state assures that individuals have opportunities for fair hearings and appeals in accordance with 42 CFR 431 Subpart E.

Additionally, persons with disabilities will be provided with alternative formats and other assistance to ensure equal access. 7. Informed Choice of Providers. (Describe how participants are assisted in obtaining in.formation about and selecting.from among qualified providers of the 1915(i) services in the person- centered service plan): Each beneficiary is given a choice of 1915(i) ADHP providers from which to select. This information is provided by the contracted health plan for D-SNP enrollees or, for fee-for service Medicaid enrollees, a licensed social worker at the ADRC during the intake and assessment process, PCSP development process, and via infonnational materials on the 191 S(i) benefit /program. Additional infonnation on the 191 S(i) benefit and a District ADHP provider directory are both available on DHCF's Long Tenn Care Administration website. Once the beneficiary has selected an ADHP provider, based on the infonnation and guidance provided by the contracted health plan or ADRC, and has a completed PCSP, they will work with the ADHP provider to develop a w1itten plan of care. The designated staff at the ADHP provider will have primary responsibility for developing a written plan of care to implement each person's PCSP.

Method for Evaluating Effectiveness of System Changes State plan Attachment 3.1-i: Page 42a Supersedes: 21-00 14 • As part of its Quality Improvement Strategy, the State Medicaid Agency proposes to work collaboratively with providers and contracted health plans to examine systems, identify issues, evaluate factors impacting the delivery of services, design c01Tective actions and measure the success of system improvement. The SMA has primary responsibility for assming that there is an effective and efficient quality management system is in place. The SMA will work with internal and external stakeholders and make recommendations regarding enhancements to the quality management system on an ongoing basis. • The focus of system improvement will be on the discovery of issues, remediation, monitoring action taken, and making system improvement when necessary. Information gathered at the individual, provider, and contracted health plan level will be used to remedy situations on those levels and to inform overall system perfonnance and improvements. • On an annual basis, the provider will submit a program evaluation report which summarizes program and operational performance throughout the year. Based on the data contained in the repo11, input from stakeholders and the outcome of monitoring activities conducted by the SMA, the SMA will evaluate key performance measures indicators and the provider's quality management system. Results of this evaluation may demonstrate a need to change performance indicators, including changing priorities; using different approaches to ensure progress; modifying roles and responsibilities, and data sources in order to obtain the information needed for system changes. • Upon identification of deficiencies the provider will be required to implement satisfactory improvements within timeframe identified by SMA. Each deficiency may require different timelines based on the impact the deficiency has on the delivery of services. Providers will be notified of deficiencies during face to face meetings, by emailor through the SMA documentation, and submission of a discovery/remediation tool.

Services Provided Under Section 191 S(i) of the Social Security Act. For each optional service, describe the methods and standards used to set the associated payment rate. (Check each that applies, and describe methods and standards to set rates): D HCBS Case Management D HCBS Homemaker D HCBS Home Health Aide D HCBS Personal Care 0 HCBS Adult Day Health For ADHP users enrolled in a contracted health plan, the health plan will reimburse covered services consistent with their contracts with DHCF and with the providers. DHCF's reimbursement of services through the health plan is actuarially sound and based on historic utilization of ADHP services. Reimbursement for fee-for-service adult day health services associated with the 191 S(i) HCBS State Plan Option shall be paid based upon uniform per-diem rates at two acuity levels. Acuity level I and Acuity level 2 se1vices shall be reimbursed in accordance with the District of Columbia Medicaid Fee Schedule. The agency's fee schedule rate will be set as of April 1, 2025 and will be effective for services providedon or after that date. All rates are published on the agency's website at https://www.dc- medicaid.com/dcwebQortal/nonsecure/feeScheduleDownload. Except as otherwise noted in the Plan, State developed fee schedule rates are the same for both governmental and private individual practitioners and the fee schedule and any annual/periodic adjustments to the fee schedule are published in the DHCF Provider Web Portal available at www .dc-medicaid.com/dcwebportal/home. ADHPs will be reimbursed at two different acuity levels. To be eligible for reimbursement at acuity level I ADHP services, an individual shall obtain a total score of four (4) or five (5). To be eligible for reimbursement at acuity level 2 ADHP services, an individual shall obtain a total score of six (6) or higher. The specific acuity level does not affect the benefit package received by an individual. ADHP consists of one set of services that are available to all participants, regardless of acuity level. Each participant will receive se1vices based upon their strength, preferences and health care needs as reflected by their level of need and person-centered service plan. Recognizing that some participants may have more complex needs (such as a greater need for supervision or support), DHCF has developed two reimbursement rates - one for those who meet the threshold eligibility criteria based upon their assessed needs and the other, for those whose assessed needs are higher. The enhanced rates recognize that staffing levels must increase when participants have higher acuity levels.

Reimbursement for adult day health services is paid using two bundled per-diem rates that are reasonable and adequate to meet the costs incurred by an efficient and economically prudent provider. The bundled per-diem rate consists of staffing costs in addition to program materials, indirect costs, and administrative costs. Room and board are excluded in the per-diem rates. The per diem rates are binding rates; the District will pay each provider a fixed per-diem rate. The District will pay the lesser of the per-diem rate or the amount billed by a provider in accordance with standard Medicaid payment methodology. The staffing structure used to develop the rates were tied to the program requirements and is sufficient to allow providers to meet all program requirements, but they are not bound to adhere to the wages or benefit rates included in the rate model beyond compliance with existing federal and District laws (such as our living wage laws) and the program requirements outlined in the SPA. The agency's per diem rates will be effective on the date of approval, for any services provided on or after that date. Except as otherwise noted in the Plan, State developed per-diem rates are the same for both governmental and private individual practitioners and will be published via transmittal available at https://www.dc- medicaid.com. Staffing, wages, and benefits The model incorporates five p1inciple types of employees to ensure adequate staffing to meet beneficiary needs and program requirements. These include direct support personnel (DSP) providing hands-on support and care; social services professionals delivering services and programming; a program director; a registered nurse (RN); and a medical director. The cost of each of these staff types was estimated as a function of five data points: (1) the base wage or salary required to recruit and retain qualified staff and to meet a rate of 117% of District living wage law; (2) the hour paid staff would be on-duty at the program, as well as hours for paid leave; (3) the ratio of each staff member to beneficiaries attending the program; (4) the number of days in a fiscal year aprogram would reasonably be operating; and (5) the additional cost of providing employee benefits such as health insurance or other fringe benefits as appropriate. Infonnation about these five data points and how they were detennined for each of the five staffing types are shown in the table below.

After summing the staffing component and the program and indirect costs, an additional 13% was added to the rate to reflect administrative costs. The District uses this rate for other provider types and it was used here for consistency. Lastly, the rate was adjusted to reflect attendance rates; effectively, the rate was increased slightly to accommodate continued operating costs each day a provider is open for business, despite its complete census not attending every day. Service Limitations ADHP services shall not be provided to persons who reside in institutions. Providers cannot bill for services that are provided for more than five (5) days per week and for more than eight (8) hours per day.

Re: District of Columbia State Plan Amendment (SPA) – 25-0003

Dear Director Byrd:

The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) is sending this companion letter to DC-25-0003, approved on May 21, 2026. This State Plan Amendment (SPA) amends the Medicaid State Plan to provide for mandatory coverage in accordance with section 1902(a)(84)(D) of the Social Security Act (the Act) for eligible juveniles who are incarcerated in a public institution post-adjudication of charges. As noted in the approval letter and State Plan, this SPA is effective April 1, 2025, and will be sunset on December 31, 2026. The state must complete the actions identified in this letter by the sunset date. Once these actions are completed, the state should submit a SPA to remove the sunset date from the State Plan.

Effective January 1, 2025, section 1902(a)(84)(D) of the Act requires states to have an internal operational plan and, in accordance with such plan, provide for the following for eligible juveniles as defined in section 1902(nn) of the Act (individuals who are under 21 years of age and determined eligible for any Medicaid eligibility group, or individuals determined eligible for the mandatory eligibility group for former foster care children under 42 C.F.R. § 435.150 who are at least age 18 but under age 26) who are within 30 days of their scheduled date of release from a public institution following adjudication:

x In the 30 days prior to release (or not later than one week, or as soon as practicable, after release from the public institution), and in coordination with the public institution, the state must provide any screenings and diagnostic services which meet reasonable standards of medical and dental practice, as determined by the state, or as otherwise indicated as medically necessary, in accordance with the Early and Periodic Screening, Diagnostic, and Treatment requirements, including a behavioral health screening or diagnostic service.

x In the 30 days prior to release and for at least 30 days following release, the state must provide targeted case management services, including referrals to appropriate care and services available in the geographic region of the home or residence of the eligible juvenile, where feasible, under the Medicaid State Plan (or waiver of such plan).

We appreciate the state’s efforts to implement this mandatory coverage and recognize the progress made, as well as the complexities associated with full implementation. However, during the review of DC-25- 0003, CMS identified actions that must be completed to fully implement mandatory coverage in accordance CENTERS FOR MEDICARE & MEDICAID SERVICES CENTER FOR MEDICAID & CHIP SERVICE§

Page 2 – Melisa Byrd

with section 1902(a)(84)(D) of the Act. CMS is issuing this companion letter to document these actions and establish a timeframe for their completion.

The state must complete the following actions by December 31, 2026, to fully implement section 1902(a)(84)(D) of the Act. Once these actions are completed the state should submit a SPA to remove the sunset date from the State Plan.

1. Enhancing data sharing, suspension, and reinstatement processes. The District will implement a 30-day pre-release notification for eligible juveniles, building on an existing robust infrastructure for suspension and reinstatement upon entrance and release. This requires internal technical system changes, communication procedure changes, and updating data sharing agreements.

2. Provider enrollment and billing. The District will make the necessary internal and external systems changes to assist providers with Medicaid enrollment and billing. This includes training on MMIS systems to allow for billing and tracking of these new services. The District is helping and supporting capacity building for our carceral providers to ensure that providers may bill for their services.

3. Supporting workflow updates. The District has compared the existing screening and diagnostic protocols at the adult and youth facilities to ensure alignment with the Department of Health Care Finance’s (DHCF) 5121 screening and diagnostic services. The District will train carceral providers on appropriately documenting screening and diagnostic services to meet Medicaid documentation requirements. Additionally, the District is assisting carceral providers with updating policy and procedure documentation to ensure alignment with Medicaid requirements.

4. Coordination of care post-release. The District will formalize existing avenues for coordination of care with post-release providers, leverage health IT infrastructure, such as the District’s Designated Health Information Exchange (HIE), and enhance post-release managed care plan (MCP) enrollment to support smooth case management transitions.

As always, CMS is available to provide technical assistance on any of these actions. If you have any questions, please contact Taneka Rivera at (410) 786-9502 or via email at Taneka.Rivera@cms.hhs.gov.
