59 Effective Date: July 1, 2009
Approval Date: (CPS). However, the survey is a statewide survey with a greatly enhanced sample size (6,950 households in 1998) to allow for statistically reliable analyses for the state and regions within the state. There are expanded samples of racial and ethnic minorities to be able to compare socio-economic characteristics of people of different racial and ethnic backgrounds. The WSPS is conducted biennially. Therefore, the CHIP uninsured performance measures will be reported every two years. The assessment of CHIP enrollees’ satisfaction with their health care and services is based on MPA’s work with the Consumer Assessment of Health Plans (CAHPS). These surveys are conducted every other year in accordance with CAHPS Consortium (A group of national survey experts associated with the Harvard Medical School, RAND, and the Research Triangle Institute protocols). The last survey was conducted in 2007, and 78% of respondents indicated there was no problem getting access to care. The survey included both HO enrollees and Medicaid FFS clients. MPA has been using HEDIS- and EPSDT related measures to assess the effectiveness of its HO contractors to provide medically appropriate services to Medicaid clients. MPA contracts with its external review organization to generate a set of similar, child appropriate measures for CHIP enrollees. Check the applicable suggested performance measurements listed below that the State plans to use: (Section 2107(a)(4)) 9.3.1.
The increase in the percentage of Medicaid-eligible children enrolled in Medicaid. 9.3.2.
The reduction in the percentage of uninsured children. 9.3.3.
The increase in the percentage of children with a usual source of care. 9.3.4.
