Therefore the state/territory is deemed to have met the requirements for voluntary choice of benefit package for
individuals exempt from mandatory participation in a section 1937 Alternative Benefit Plan.
These assurances must be made by the state/territory if the Adult eligibility group is included in the ABP Population.
The state/territory shall enroll all participants in the "Individuals at or below 133% FPL Age 19 through 64" (section 1902(a)(10)(A) (i)(VIID) eligibility group in the Alternative Benefit Plan specified in this state plan amendment, except as follows: A beneficiary in the eligibility group at section 1902(a)(10)(A)(i)(VILI) who is determined to meet one of the exemption criteria at 45 CFR 440.315 will receive a choice of a benefit package that is either an Alternative Benefit Plan that includes Essential Health Benefits and is subject to all 1937 requirements or an Alternative Benefit Plan that is the state/territory’s approved Medicaid state plan not subject to 1937 requirements. The state/territory’s approved Medicaid state plan includes all approved state plan programs based on any state
plan authority, and approved 1915(c) waivers, if the state has amended them to include the eligibility group at section 1902(a)(10)(A) (VID. .
The state/territory must have a process in place to identify individuals that meet the exemption criteria and the State/territory must comply with requirements related to providing the option of enrollment in an Alternative Benefit Plan defined using section 1937
requirements, or an Alternative Benefit Plan defined as the state/territory's approved Medicaid state plan that is not subject to section 1937 requirements.
Once an individual is identified, the state/territory assures it will effectively inform the individual of the following:
a) Enrollment in the specified Alternative Benefit Plan is voluntary;
b) The individual may disenroll from the Alternative Benefit Plan defined subject to section 1937 requirements at any time and
instead receive an Alternative Benefit Plan defined as the approved state/territory Medicaid state plan that is not subject to section 1937 requirements; and
c) What the process is for transferring to the state plan-based Alternative Benefit Plan.
The state/territory assures it will inform the individual of:
a) The benefits available as Alternative Benefit Plan coverage defined using section 1937 requirements as compared to Alternative
Benefit Plan coverage defined as the state/territory's approved Medicaid state plan and not subject to section 1937 requirements; and

29 Process for Making a Presumptive Eligibility Determination 3.4 Example Scenarios Example Scenario I: The patient is incapacitated and there is no authorized representative present.
Solution: If a patient is incapacitated but is accompanied by someone who has reasonable knowledge of the patient’s status, that person can answer the questions needed to make a HBPE determination and the patient can still receive a HBPE determination. However, to complete the full Medicaid application, either the patient or an authorized representative must be available to answer the more detailed questions on the full application. If neither the patient nor an authorized representative is available, the AHE must save the case and schedule a follow-up with the patient (if possible) to complete the full Medicaid application.

30 Process for Making a Presumptive Eligibility Determination 3.4 Example Scenarios Example Scenario II: The patient or authorized representative is unable to complete the full Medicaid application in real time and does not respond to AHE’s follow up.
Solution: If the patient has been determined eligible for HBPE but is unable or unwilling to complete the full Medicaid application in real time, it is the AHE’s responsibility to set up a time to follow up with that patient. Should the AHE be unsuccessful in connecting with the patient at the designated follow-up time but discovers the patient was able to complete the full Medicaid application on their own, the AHE will need to notify the hospital and the process is ended. However, if the patient has not completed the full Medicaid application on their own, the AHE must again follow up with the patient in an attempt to assist them in filling out the application, noting that the case will expire on the designated date.

31 Process for Making a Presumptive Eligibility Determination 3.4 Example Scenarios Example Scenario III: The patient completes their PE determination at Hospital A but is transferred to Hospital B for further treatment. Who is responsible for completing the full Medicaid application?
Solution: In this case, Hospital A should include the patient’s temporary card in the paperwork transfer to Hospital B. Additionally, Hospital A should communicate to Hospital B that the patient will need to complete their full application. Following up with the patient is Hospital A’s responsibility. The responsibility of the PE patient does not leave the hospital when the patient leaves. Should Hospital B complete the full Medicaid application with the patient, it would be credited to Hospital A.

5/4/2017 Medicaid State Plan Print View 9/21 Name Description Bipolar Disorder N/a Hepatitis Type B and/or Type C n/a Specify the criteria for at risk of developing another chronic condition Evidence published indicates that individuals with Bipolar Disorder represent a patient population at high risk for: statistically high mortality rates compared to the general medical population; developing comorbid medical diseases because of lifestyle; substance abuse; having Hepatitis Type B and/or C. These individuals have a pattern of poor treatment compliance. Prescription psychotropic medication costs for individuals with Bipolar Disorder in West Virginia average over $30,000 per year, per individual. If the individual concurrently suffers from Hepatitis Type C and is receiving the most current treatment, yearly prescription medical costs can easily exceed $100,000 per individual before other medications or other health care costs are considered. For the reasons noted, targeted treatment of this population meets the needs of West Virginians and is highly aligned with the three main goals to: improve the experience of care, improve the health of our population, and to reduce per capita health care costs.

The care plan design will be developed with input from the interdisciplinary team of providers on the basis of information obtained from a comprehensive risk assessment that identifies the member’s needs in areas including: medical, mental health, substance abuse/misuse, and social services. The comprehensive risk assessment will also include mental health and substance abuse screenings using standardized tools. HH Providers will be required to update the clinical/medical/social data received during an assessment at least every four months. The individualized care plan will include integrated services to meet the member’s behavioral health, rehabilitative, long term care, and social service needs, as indicated. The care plan will be developed with input from the interdisciplinary team of providers; identify the primary care physician, other health and behavioral health care providers, Care Manager, and other health team providers directly involved in the individual’s care; and also identify community networks and supports needed for comprehensive quality health care. The Care Manager is a member of the team and responsible for the maintenance of the care plan document and ensures the client receives a copy of the initial care plan and any time that changes are made. Goals and timeframes for improving the member’s health, overall health care status and identified interventions will be included in the care plan, as well as schedules for plan assessment and update. Comprehensive care management will assure that the member or legal health representative is an active team member in the care plan’s development, implementation and assessment and is informed and in agreement with plan components. Member’s family and other recognized supports will be involved in the member’s care as requested by the member. Describe how Health Information Technology will be used to link this service in a comprehensive approach across the care continuum Penetration of HIT adoption in WV is variable at the current time, although a growing number of providers are adopting EHR’s in response to the federal incentive program and BMS has partnered with the WV Regional Extension Center to further promote the use of HIT within the Medicaid provider community. Providers will be expected to demonstrate a commitment to the use of HIT by all members of the Health Home team, as part of the application to serve as a Health Home. At minimum, a certified EHR is required at the primary care site; the EHR is expected to document the elements of an individual care plan for each Health Home member. The use of HIT is also encouraged in the identification of individuals who are at highest risk and in need of more intense care management services; this will be done through analysis of population level reports of member characteristics and utilization patterns. This may also be done through electronic responses to a health risk assessment tool. To facilitate communication about care coordination and care management activities, various systems are being explored; however, none is expected to be in place prior to SPA implementation. As the use of HIT and the implementation of a statewide health information exchange evolve, it is anticipated that the use of HIT to support all of the health homes services will also evolve. Scope of service The service can be provided by the following provider types Behavioral Health Professionals or Specialists Description Initial assessment and care plan development will be conducted in a face to face encounter. Follow-up services may be provided in either a face to face encounter, telephonically, or via telehealth modalities. Nurse Practitioner Nurse Care Coordinators Description Under the supervision of the primary care physician or advanced nurse practitioner, the nurse care coordinator supervises and facilitates the coordination of health care to the member.

Doctors of Chiropractic Licensed Complementary and alternative Medicine Practitioners Dieticians Nutritionists Other (specify) Care Coordination Definition Care Coordination is the delivery of comprehensive, multidisciplinary care to a member that links all involved resources by maintaining and disseminating current, relevant health and care plan data. Care coordination manages resource linkages, referrals, coordination and follow-up to plan-identified resources. Activities include, but are not limited to: appointment scheduling, conducting referrals and follow-up monitoring, participating in facility discharge processes and communicating with other providers and members/family members. Describe how Health Information Technology will be used to link this service in a comprehensive approach across the care continuum Each Health Home provider will be encouraged to use the HIT resources they have available through their internal EHRs to track referrals and generate reminders for follow up. Where there are available electronic linkages with partner hospitals and their EHRs, the Health Home providers will be encouraged to maximize the use of these linkages to share bi-directional information. West Virginia is just starting its gradual roll-out of a state-wide HIE. As the state HIE is implemented, all Health Home providers will be encouraged to fully participate, as is feasible, to utilize the HIE to share information with members of their referral network. Health Home providers will also be encouraged to implement a patient portal to communicate with patients/ family members. Health Home providers will be encouraged to utilize their EHRs and/ or patient portals to link to health information and resources applicable to the member’s condition. Member educational materials will be generated electronically to allow for customization and appropriateness to the member’s condition, literacy level, and cultural preferences, where feasible.

Comprehensive Transitional Care from Inpatient to Other Settings (including appropriate follow-up) Definition Comprehensive Transitional Care is care coordination services designed to prevent avoidable emergency department visits, admissions, and readmission after discharge from an inpatient facility. For each enrollee transferred from one caregiver or site of care to another, the health home team ensures proper and timely follow-up care and safe, coordinated transitions, including reconciliation of medications. The transition could include any inpatient care to home and community based services and supports. This is accomplished through formal relationships and communication systems with health facilities including emergency departments, hospitals, long-term care facilities, residential/rehabilitation settings, as well as with other providers and community-based services. Describe how Health Information Technology will be used to link this service in a comprehensive approach across the care continuum Health Home providers will be encouraged to develop partnerships that maximize the use of HIT across various caregivers and care settings. The provider will be encouraged to use HIT when available to communicate with health facilities and to facilitate interdisciplinary collaboration among all care team members. Providers will be encouraged to share information through the statewide HIE once that capability becomes available. Providers will also be encouraged to provide enrollees with web-based access to their records that can follow the enrollees as they transition to different care settings. To facilitate post-hospital follow-up, BMS will be exploring a means of communication to health homes about enrollees who have been admitted to a hospital. QIO will provide via its web-based system a notification to the assigned Health Home when a non-MCO member has had a request for medical or psychiatric hospitalization made/authorized. The MCOs will be encouraged to provide like information to the Health Homes for their members served by a Health Home.

As a condition of being a designated provider, the health home must agree not to refuse enrollment of eligible potential health home enrollee referred by Bureau for Medical Services (BMS). 7. As a condition of being a designated provider, the health home is subject to all audit and monitoring systems currently in place for Bureau for Medical Services programs. Documentation of health home services for enrollees is subject to audit by a Bureau for Medical Services contractor. In addition, the provider understands that BMS will monitor outcome measures and the provider is subject to discontinuation of designation as a health home if measures are not reported as required, or if anticipated outcomes are not achieved. 8.

In the SPA please provide the cost data and assumptions that were used to develop each of the rates 2. Please identify the reimbursable unit(s) of service 3. Please describe the minimum level of activities that the state agency requires for providers to receive payment per the defined unit 4. Please describe the state's standards and process required for service documentation, and 5. Please describe in the SPA the procedures for reviewing and rebasing the rates, including the frequency with which the state will review the rates, and the factors that will be reviewed by the state in order to understand if the rates are economic and efficient and sufficient to ensure quality services. Comprehensive Description Reimbursement will only be made for health home services not covered by any other available Medicaid reimbursement options. The criteria required for receiving a monthly PMPM reimbursement is: a) The member meets health home eligibility criteria and is so flagged in the MMIS; b) The member is enrolled as a health home member with the health home provider billing for the service reimbursement; c) At least one of the core health home services has been provided during the previous month and documented in the member's medical record. By submitting the basic or intense health home service code for reimbursement, the provider is attesting to the fact that at least one of the six health home services has been provided during the month. The following steps are used to determine the rates: 1 . The State will use West Virginia wage specific data obtained from the Bureau for Labor Statistics (BLS) for each Health Home designated multidisciplinary team professional. 2. Salary will be adjusted for fringe benefits and assigned at a rate of 40 percent of the average BLS annualized salary for each wage classification. 3. The fringe adjusted annual salary is converted to an hourly rate per wage classification assuming 2,080 work hours. 4. The hourly rate for each wage classification is adjusted for each multidisciplinary team member's level of participation in the health home team for each payment by dividing the team members assigned level of participation by the total assigned monthly participation for the health home team. 5. The monthly health home team level of participation assigned to services is two hours PMPM and Health home participation levels will vary based on each targeted health home condition. 6. The PMPM rate will equal the sum of hourly rates for each health home multidisciplinary team member that has been adjusted for fringe benefits and participation level. Payment for Health Home services under the State Plan will not duplicate payments made to public agencies or private entities under other program authorities for the same purpose. Medicaid will be the payer of last resort. Unless specifically notes otherwise in the plan, the state developed rate is the same for both governmental and private providers. Providers will be reimbursed at the lesser of the provider's usual and customary billed charge or the Bureau for Medical Services (Bureau) fee schedule. Rates will be published on the Bureau's website at: www.dhhr.wv.gov/bms. The agency's fee schedule rate was set as of July 1, 2014, the start date of WV 1st Health Home program, and is effective for services provided on or after that date. All rates are published on the agency's website. Two Level System: Payment will be made on a per member per month (PMPM) basis for each health home enrollee. Basic and Intensive Health Home Services comprise the two-level system. Health Home Service Level I: The basic Level I health home service code is intended to cover the provision of all of the six health home services, as determined to be appropriate to meet the member needs. At the time of enrollment, the Health Homes requests prior authorization of the Level I service for each enrollee through a web- based prior authorization system managed by QIO. Both at initial enrollment and at the time of each service request, the QIO verifies the person's Medicaid eligibility. Payment will be made based on the presence of the Health Home attribute in the member's MMIS record, the member's Medicaid eligibility during the service month, a prior authorization in the MMIS including the service month and the submission for payment through the MMIS of the service code for Health Home Services: Level I. The benefit package for all Health Home enrollees includes eligibility for services covered by the basic health home code.

5/4/2017 Medicaid State Plan Print View 20/21 Health Home Service Level II: A second health home level of service, Level II, is available for those health home enrollees determined to require more intense service for a period. Health Homes request prior authorization of the Level II intensive service through the same web-based prior authorization system managed by QIO. At the time of a request for Level II service, QIO will conduct verification of the HH member's Medicaid eligibility. Each Medicaid member whom qualifies for Level II Health Home service will receive a one-month authorization. Authorization is based on clinical information presented by the Health Home provider, including hospitalizations, ER utilization, assessment scores, and clinical judgment documenting a deterioration of the enrollee's condition and crisis situation requiring stabilization. Payment will be made based on the presence of the Health Home attribute in the member's MMIS record, the member's Medicaid eligibility during the service month, a prior authorization in the MMIS including the service month and the submission for payment through the MMIS of the service code for Health Home Services: Level II. Assurances The State provides assurance that it will ensure non-duplication of payment for services similar to Health Homes services that are offered/covered under a different statutory authority, such as 1915(c) waivers or targeted case management. Describe below how non- duplication of payment will be achieved There will be a contractual agreement with Health Home Providers and other providers, such as waiver services providers and targeted case management providers, regarding non-duplication of similar benefits. In addition, Bureau for Medical Services does periodic retrospective reviews for these services. The State meets the requirements of 42 CFR Part 447, Subpart A, and sections 1902(a)(4), 1902(a)(6), 1902(a)(30)(A), and 1903 with respect to non- payment for provider-preventable conditions. The State provides assurance that all governmental and private providers are reimbursed according to the same rate schedule, unless otherwise described above. The State provides assurance that it shall reimburse providers directly, except when there are employment or contractual arrangements consistent with section 1902(a)(32).

Include savings that result from improved coordination of care and chronic disease management achieved through the Health Homes Program, including data sources and measurement specifications, as well as any savings associated with dual eligibles, and if Medicare data was available to the state to utilize in arriving at its cost-savings estimates Data Source: MMIS Measurement Specifications: Compare total cost of care for health home members to costs of care for similar cohorts not enrolled with a HH. Calculations will exclude claims for high cost outliers more than three standard deviations from the mean annual cost and will include incremental HH reimbursement. HH member costs will also be compared pre- and post- HH implementation. Describe how the state will use health information technology in providing Health Homes services and to improve service delivery and coordination across the care continuum (including the use of wireless patient technology to improve coordination and management of care and patient adherence to recommendations made by their provider) West Virginia currently has several HIT initiatives in place and underway that will support the provision of health home services and improvement of care coordination across the care continuum. • The state is in the process of implementing a statewide health information exchange that will facilitate the sharing of information across various care delivery settings. All health home providers will be expected to participate in the HIE as it is implemented across the state. The HIE will be used to capture meaningful use measures and several of these are incorporated into the information that will be used to monitor and evaluate health home services. Until the HIE is fully in place in the state, each health home provider will also be expected to use their EHR to generate a Continuity of Care Document (CCD) that can be shared with other providers in order to facilitate transitions in care and care coordination across care settings. • A pharmacy data warehouse is in place that will provide for monitoring of patient adherence to prescribed drug regimens as well as appropriate use of pharmaceutical agents. • A data warehouse/decision support system has been implemented to capture MMIS claims data as well clinical data that will flows through the HIE. This data warehouse will be the primary source of evaluation information for the health homes initiative. • A web-based vendor system will be used for documentation of medically necessary services and authorization information. • Information on hepatitis will be shared with the West Virginia Bureau for Public Health: the Office of Epidemiology and Prevention Services maintains a data base of information regarding incidence of hepatitis in the State.

5/4/2017 Medicaid State Plan Print View 9/21 Name Description Pre-Diabetes n/a Anxiety and/or Depression n/a Specify the criteria for at risk of developing another chronic condition Evidence published indicates that individuals with Pre-Diabetes, Diabetes, and Obesity represent a patient population at high risk for: anxiety; depression; statistically high mortality rates compared to the general medical population; developing comorbid medical diseases because of lifestyle; substance abuse; and/or other related physical and mental health diagnosis. These individuals have a pattern of poor treatment compliance. The diagnosis of Diabetes increases the members risk of developing many other serious health problems to include: Skin complications including wound healing; eye complications and deteriorating vision; neuropathy; foot complications to include numbness, burning, stinging and weakness; Ketoacidosis; kidney disease to include kidney disease; high blood pressure, stroke and/or other cardiovascular diseases; Hyperosmolar Hyperglycemic Nonketotic Syndrome (HNNS); gastroparesis; along with having effects on pregnancy and members overall mental health. Prescription medication costs for individuals with Pre Diabetes, Diabetes, Obesity, in West Virginia average approximately $3,000 per year, per individual. If the individual concurrently suffers from anxiety and/or depression and is receiving the most current treatment, yearly prescription medical costs can be significantly higher. For example, about 25% of West Virginia’s antipsychotics, antidepressants, and/or antianxiety medications are attributed to this patient population. Overall medical cost for this patient population can easily exceed $30,000 per individual, per year. An estimated 10% of the total West Virginia Medicaid population is diagnosed within these target diagnosis. However, there is reason to believe that Diabetes is severely underdiagnosed in West Virginia due to members not receiving routine health care, and the average person is estimated to have diabetes 5 years, or more, before they are diagnosed. For the reasons noted, targeted treatment of this population meets the needs of West Virginians and is highly aligned with the three main goals to: improve the experience of care, improve the health of our population, and to reduce per capita health care costs.

The care plan design will be developed with input from the interdisciplinary team of providers on the basis of information obtained from a comprehensive risk assessment that identifies the member’s needs in areas including: medical, mental health, substance abuse/misuse, and social services. The comprehensive risk assessment will also include mental health and substance abuse screenings using standardized tools. HH Providers will be required to update the clinical/medical/social data received during an assessment at least every four months. The individualized care plan will include integrated services to meet the member’s behavioral health, rehabilitative, long term care, and social service needs, as indicated. The care plan will be developed with input from the interdisciplinary team of providers; identify the primary care physician, other health and behavioral health care providers, Care Manager, and other health team providers directly involved in the individual’s care; and also identify community networks and supports needed for comprehensive quality health care. The Care Manager is a member of the team and responsible for the maintenance of the care plan document and ensures the client receives a copy of the initial care plan and any time that changes are made. Goals and timeframes for improving the member’s health, overall health care status and identified interventions will be included in the care plan, as well as schedules for plan assessment and update. Comprehensive care management will assure that the member or legal health representative is an active team member in the care plan’s development, implementation and assessment and is informed and in agreement with plan components. Member’s family and other recognized supports will be involved in the member’s care as requested by the member. Describe how Health Information Technology will be used to link this service in a comprehensive approach across the care continuum Penetration of HIT adoption in WV is variable at the current time, although a growing number of providers are adopting EHR’s in response to the federal incentive program and BMS has partnered with the WV Regional Extension Center to further promote the use of HIT within the Medicaid provider community. Providers will be expected to demonstrate a commitment to the use of HIT by all members of the Health Home team, as part of the application to serve as a Health Home. At minimum, a certified EHR is required at the primary care site; the EHR is expected to document the elements of an individual care plan for each Health Home member. The use of HIT is also encouraged in the identification of individuals who are at highest risk and in need of more intense care WV 16-0008 Superseded SPA: N/A Effective Date: April 1, 2017 CMS Approval: May 4, 2017

This may also be done through electronic responses to a health risk assessment tool. To facilitate communication about care coordination and care management activities, various systems are being explored; however, none is expected to be in place prior to SPA implementation. As the use of HIT and the implementation of a statewide health information exchange evolve, it is anticipated that the use of HIT to support all of the health homes services will also evolve. Scope of service The service can be provided by the following provider types Behavioral Health Professionals or Specialists Description Initial assessment and care plan development will be conducted in a face to face encounter. Follow up services may be provided in either a face to face encounter, telephonically, or via telehealth modalities.

Doctors of Chiropractic Licensed Complementary and alternative Medicine Practitioners Dieticians Nutritionists Other (specify) Care Coordination Definition Care Coordination is the delivery of comprehensive, multidisciplinary care to a member that links all involved resources by maintaining and disseminating current, relevant health and care plan data. Care coordination manages resource linkages, referrals, coordination and follow-up to plan-identified resources. Activities include, but are not limited to: appointment scheduling, conducting referrals and follow-up monitoring, participating in facility discharge processes and communicating with other providers and members/family members. Describe how Health Information Technology will be used to link this service in a comprehensive approach across the care continuum Each Health Home provider will be encouraged to use the HIT resources they have available through their internal EHRs to track referrals and generate reminders for follow up. Where there are available electronic linkages with partner hospitals and their EHRs, the Health Home providers will be encouraged to maximize the use of these linkages to share bi-directional information. West Virginia is just starting its gradual roll-out of a state-wide HIE. As the state HIE is implemented, all Health Home providers will be encouraged to fully participate, as is feasible, to utilize the HIE to share information with members of their referral network. Health Home providers will also be encouraged to implement a patient portal to communicate with patients/ family members. Health Home providers will be encouraged to utilize their EHRs and/ or patient portals to link to health information and resources applicable to the member’s condition. Member educational materials will be generated electronically to allow for customization and appropriateness to the member’s condition, literacy level, and cultural preferences, where feasible.

Comprehensive Transitional Care from Inpatient to Other Settings (including appropriate follow-up) Definition Comprehensive Transitional Care is care coordination services designed to prevent avoidable emergency department visits, admissions, and readmission after discharge from an inpatient facility. For each enrollee transferred from one caregiver or site of care to another, the health home team ensures proper and timely follow-up care and safe, coordinated transitions, including reconciliation of medications. The transition could include any inpatient care to home and community based services and supports. This is accomplished through formal relationships and communication systems with health facilities including emergency departments, hospitals, long-term care facilities, residential/rehabilitation settings, as well as with other providers and community-based services. Describe how Health Information Technology will be used to link this service in a comprehensive approach across the care continuum Health Home providers will be encouraged to develop partnerships that maximize the use of HIT across various caregivers and care settings. The provider will be encouraged to use HIT when available to communicate with health facilities and to facilitate interdisciplinary collaboration among all care team members. Providers will be encouraged to share information through the statewide HIE once that capability becomes available. Providers will also be encouraged to provide enrollees with web-based access to their records that can follow the enrollees as they transition to different care settings. To facilitate post-hospital follow-up, BMS will be exploring a means of communication to health homes about enrollees who have been admitted to a hospital. The QIO will provide via its web-based system a notification to the assigned Health Home when a non-MCO member has had a request for medical or psychiatric hospitalization made/authorized.

5/4/2017 Medicaid State Plan Print View 20/21 c) At least one of the core health home services has been provided during the previous month and documented in the member's medical record. By submitting the basic or intense health home service code for reimbursement, the provider is attesting to the fact that at least one of the six health home services has been provided during the month. The following steps are used to determine the rates: I . The State will use West Virginia wage specific data obtained from the Bureau for Labor Statistics (BLS) for each Health Home designated multidisciplinary team professional. 2. Salary will be adjusted for fringe benefits and assigned at a rate of 40 percent of the average BLS annualized salary for each wage classification. 3. The fringe adjusted annual salary is converted to an hourly rate per wage classification assuming 2,080 work hours. 4. The hourly rate for each wage classification is adjusted for each multidisciplinary team member's level of participation in the health home team for payment by dividing the team members assigned level of participation by the total assigned monthly participation for the health home team. 5. The monthly health home team level of participation assigned is two hours PMPM for individuals with target diagnosis. Health home participation levels will vary based on each targeted health home condition. 6. The PMPM rate will equal the sum of hourly rates for each health home multidisciplinary team member that has been adjusted for fringe benefits and participation level. Payment for Health Home services under the State Plan will not duplicate payments made to public agencies or private entities under other program authorities for the same purpose. Medicaid will be the payer of last resort. Unless specifically notes otherwise in the plan, the state developed rate is the same for both governmental and private providers. Providers will be reimbursed at the lesser of the provider's usual and customary billed charge or the Bureau for Medical Services (Bureau) fee schedule. Rates will be published on the Bureau's website at: www.dhhr.wv.gov/bms. The agency's fee schedule rate was set as of July 1, 2014, the start date of WV 1st Health Home program, and is effective for services provided on or after that date. All rates are published on the agency's website. Payment will be made on a per member per month (PMPM) basis for each health home enrollee. The Health Home service code is intended to cover the provision of all of the six health home services, as determined to be appropriate to meet the member needs. At the time of enrollment, the Health Homes requests prior authorization of the service for each enrollee through a web-based prior authorization system managed by the contracted QIO. Both at initial enrollment and at the time of each service request, the QIO verifies the person's Medicaid eligibility. Payment will be made based on the presence of the Health Home attribute in the member's MMIS record, the member's Medicaid eligibility during the service month, a prior authorization in the MMIS including the service month and the submission for payment through the MMIS of the service code. The benefit package for all Health Home enrollees includes eligibility for services covered by the basic health home code. Assurances The State provides assurance that it will ensure non-duplication of payment for services similar to Health Homes services that are offered/covered under a different statutory authority, such as 1915(c) waivers or targeted case management. Describe below how non- duplication of payment will be achieved There will be a contractual agreement with Health Home Providers and other providers, such as waiver services providers and targeted case management providers, regarding non-duplication of similar benefits. In addition, Bureau for Medical Services does periodic retrospective reviews for these services. The State meets the requirements of 42 CFR Part 447, Subpart A, and sections 1902(a)(4), 1902(a)(6), 1902(a)(30)(A), and 1903 with respect to non- payment for provider-preventable conditions. The State provides assurance that all governmental and private providers are reimbursed according to the same rate schedule, unless otherwise described above. The State provides assurance that it shall reimburse providers directly, except when there are employment or contractual arrangements consistent with section 1902(a)(32).

HH member costs will also be compared pre- and post- HH implementation. Describe how the state will use health information technology in providing Health Homes services and to improve service delivery and coordination across the care continuum (including the use of wireless patient technology to improve coordination and management of care and patient adherence to recommendations made by their provider) West Virginia currently has several HIT initiatives in place and underway that will support the provision of health home services and improvement of care coordination across the care continuum. • The state is in the process of implementing a statewide health information exchange that will facilitate the sharing of information across various care delivery settings. All health home providers will be expected to participate in the HIE as it is implemented across the state. The HIE will be used to capture meaningful use measures and several of these are incorporated into the information that will be used to monitor and evaluate health home services. Until the HIE is fully in place in the state, each health home provider will also be expected to use their EHR to generate a Continuity of Care Document (CCD) that can be shared with other providers in order to facilitate transitions in care and care coordination across care settings. • A pharmacy data warehouse is in place that will provide for monitoring of patient adherence to prescribed drug regimens as well as appropriate use of pharmaceutical agents. • A data warehouse/decision support system has been implemented to capture MMIS claims data as well clinical data that will flows through the HIE. This data warehouse will be the primary source of evaluation information for the health homes initiative. • A web-based vendor system will be used for documentation of medically necessary services and authorization information. • Information on hepatitis will be shared with the West Virginia Bureau for Public Health: the Office of Epidemiology and Prevention Services maintains a data base of information regarding incidence of hepatitis in the State. Quality Measurement and Evaluation The state provides assurance that all Health Homes providers report to the state on all applicable quality measures as a condition of receiving payment from the state The state provides assurance that it will identify measureable goals for its Health Homes model and intervention and also identify quality measures related to each goal to measure its success in achieving the goals The state provides assurance that it will report to CMS information submitted by Health Homes providers to inform evaluations, as well as Reports to Congress as described in Section 2703(b) of the Affordable Care Act and as described by CMS The state provides assurance that it will track avoidable hospital readmissions and report annually in the Quality Measures report PRA Disclosure Statement: According to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, no persons are required to respond to a collection of information unless it displays a valid OMB control number.

DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH & HUMAN SERVICES Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services 7500 Security Boulevard, Mail Stop S2-26-12 Baltimore, Maryland 21244-1850 August 13, 2020 Cynthia Beane, MSW, LCSW Commissioner Bureau for Medical Services 350 Capitol Street, Room 251 Charleston, WV 25301-3706 Re: West Virginia State Plan Amendment (SPA) 20-0004 Dear Commissioner Beane: We have reviewed the proposed amendment to add section 7.4 Medicaid Disaster Relief for the COVID-19 National Emergency to your Medicaid state plan, as submitted under transmittal number (TN) 20-0004. 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. 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

GDWH GXULQJ 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 State of West Virginia 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 West Virginia’s Medicaid SPA Transmittal Number 20-0004 is approved effective March 1, 2020. Please note that the effective date for the new COVID-19 testing eligibility group described at section 1902(a)(10)(A)(ii)(XXIII) of the Act is March 18, 2020. )LQDOO\ WKH HIIHFWLYH GDWH IRU WHOHGHQWLVWU\ VFUHHQLQJ LV $SULO Enclosed is a copy of the CMS-179 summary form and the approved state plan pages.

Payment for additional Bed-hold Days: Reimbursement for greater than six therapeutic, non-medical bed hold days per year will be permitted to allow nursing home settings to retain settings when members have the option to stay with their families during the pandemic period. The 6 day bed-hold limit is currently in the State Plan in Attachment 4.19 -D-1, VII. The 6-day bed-hold limit can be exceeded with prior authorization. BMS also requests the modification of State Plan Attachment 4.19-D, which establishes the provision for reimbursement of Intermediate Care Facilities. Members using ICF services often participate in day programs, which reduces the need for staffing in facilities while clients are in these programs. ICF rates account for this reduced staff time. ICF day programs are being suspended to prevent the spread of COVID-19, resulting in clients needing to stay within their facilities and increasing the cost for facilities to have adequate staff. The assumed participation time in the day programs are not built into ICF rates. The State seeks to modify the current ICF rate-setting methodology to provide an add-on to facility rates to compensate for the increased cost of staff time not accounted for in the current facility’s daily rates during the duration of the emergency. Long-term Acute Care Hospital Services not reimbursed under the state plan: A Medicaid Per Diem Cost amount will be calculated (including routine and ancillary costs) from Worksheets D1 and S3 from the Medicare Cost Report. The Medicare Per Diem cost will be adjusted for a cost coverage percentage (81.58 percent) = Adjusted Per Diem. Medicaid will reimburse providers the Adjusted Per Diem. Days Awaiting Placement: Inappropriate level of care days in inpatient hospitals (also called days awaiting placement) for members will be reimbursed at a rate of $238 per day when the member cannot be discharged to home or to another care setting, including but not limited to nursing home settings, due to a need for isolation or continued medical care; the rate reflects the level of ϮϬͲϬϬϬϰ EĞǁ DĂƌĐŚ ϭ͕ ϮϬϮϬ

Re: West Virginia State Plan Amendment (SPA) 21-0010
Dear Commissioner Beane:
We have reviewed the proposed amendment to add section 7.4 Medicaid Disaster Relief for the COVID-19 National Emergency to your Medicaid state plan, as submitted under transmittal number (TN) 21-0010. 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.
(spa)(wv-21-0010)(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 State of West Virginia 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 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 West Virginia Medicaid SPA Transmittal Number 21-0010 is approved effective June 1, 2020. 7KLV 63$ LV LQ DGGLWLRQ WR DQG GRHV QRW VXSHUVHGH WKH 'LVDVWHU 5HOLHI 63$V DSSURYHG $XJXVW :9 'HFHPEHU :9 $SULO :9 DQG 0D\

A) Cost Effectiveness Calculation: 1) Enrollment in a group health insurance plan shall be considered cost effective when the cost of paying the premiums, coinsurance, deductibles, benefits wrap, cost- sharing, and additional administrative costs is estimated to be less than the amount paid for an equivalent set of Medicaid services. a) When determining cost effectiveness of a group health insurance plan, the State shall consider the following information: i) The cost of the insurance premium, coinsurance, and deductible; ii) The scope of services covered under the insurance plan, exclusions to enrollment, and lifetime maximum benefits imposed; iii) The average anticipated Medicaid utilization: 1) By age, sex, and coverage group for persons covered under the insurance plan; and 2) Using a statewide average for the geographic component iv) The specific health-related circumstances of the persons covered under the insurance plan; and v) Annual administrative expenditures of an amount determined by the State per Medicaid recipient covered under the group health insurance plan. All relevant information is gathered and evaluated by the State’s third party liability (TPL) vendor. The TPL vendor determines HIPP eligibility, processes payments, and performs eligibility reviews utilizing the State’s cost effectiveness calculation described above. 2) If the Medicaid beneficiary who has access to a group health insurance plan is not deemed cost effective for enrollment in premium assistance and a family member has a high-cost condition and Medicaid coverage, the State will conduct a family-based cost effectiveness test to determine if it will be less expensive for the State to cover the cost of health insurance premiums and cost sharing for the entire family. B) Cost Effectiveness Review: 1) The State shall complete a cost effectiveness review: a) At least once every six (6) months for an employer-related group health insurance plan.

Individuals who remain eligible for Medicaid will receive medical assistance under the State Plan. 4) The department shall not disenroll an individual from HIPP program participation if the individual demonstrates to the department, within thirty (30) days of notice of HIPP program disenrollment, good cause for failing to comply with subsection three (3) of this section. 5) Good cause for failing to comply with subsection three (3) of this section shall exist if: a)There was a serious illness or death of the recipient, parent, guardian, or caretaker or a member of the recipient’s, parent’s, guardian’s, or caretaker’s family; b) There was a family emergency or natural disaster – for example, a fire, flood, tornado, or similar; c) The recipient, parent, guardian, or caretaker offers a good cause beyond the recipient’s, parent’s, guardian’s or caretaker’s control; or d) There was a failure to receive the department’s request for information or notification for a reason not attributable to the recipient, parent, guardian, or caretaker or lack of a forwarding address shall be attributable to the recipient, parent, guardian, or caretaker. C) Coverage of Non-Medicaid Family Members. 1) If determined to be cost effective, the department shall: a) Pay a HIPP program premium on behalf of a HIPP program participating family member who is not a Medicaid enrollee; and b) Not pay a deductible, coinsurance, or other cost-sharing obligation on behalf of a HIPP program-participating family member who is not a Medicaid enrollee. D) Beneficiary Protections: 1) Individuals enrolled in the State’s premium assistance program are afforded the same beneficiary protections provided to all other Medicaid enrollees.

STATE PLAN UNDER TITLE XIX OF THE SOCIAL SECURITY ACT State: West Virginia Attachment 4.22-C Page 3 TN No.: 22-0008 Approval Date: Effective Date: Supersedes: New 01/01/2022 2) The State will provide a benefits wrap to all services and benefits available under the Medicaid State Plan that are not provided through the Employee Sponsored Insurance (ESI) plan. a) After providers submit an explanation of benefits to Medicaid showing that the services were not covered through the ESI, Medicaid will then pay primary for these Medicaid covered services. The State will inform beneficiaries how to obtain benefits through the benefits wrap. 3) The State will provide a cost-sharing wrap to any cost-sharing amounts that exceed the cost-sharing limits described in the State Plan. For the cost sharing wrap around: a) The State has implemented a provider enrollment strategy to enroll non- participating Medicaid providers. The State educates non-participating Medicaid providers on how to enroll in Medicaid for the specific (and sole) purpose of receiving payment from the State for cost sharing amounts that exceed the Medicaid permissible limits for the patient responsibility portion of the claim. b) The State will assist beneficiaries in choosing in-network providers of the health plan that are also Medicaid enrolled providers. c) The State will encourage HIPP program beneficiaries to access services from an ESI in-network provider that is also a Medicaid provider. The State will inform beneficiaries that if the beneficiary wants to seek care from a non-Medicaid provider, they should request their provider to contact Provider Enrollment for assistance with enrolling in Medicaid for the purposes of cost-sharing. The beneficiary can also request assistance from Member Services. Provider Enrollment can contact the provider to explain that the State will pay the total patient responsibility amount once the provider contracts to become a Medicaid provider. Medicaid will pay secondary on claims for services rendered by out-of-network providers, only if the ESI covers out-of-network providers. d) The State allows HIPP beneficiaries to obtain services from any provider in the Medicaid network for any Medicaid State Plan Service or Medicaid Waiver Service (if the beneficiary meets waiver criteria as applicable). 4) The State will provide pre-payment for the beneficiary portion of the premiums for a cost effective ESI directly to the policy holder using the following process: a) As the State is requiring the HIPP TPL contractor to prefund their bank account for reimbursements to policy holders. The contractor will follow the process of presenting a funding request to the State so that they are aware and agree with the premiums being reimbursed. Once approved, the contractor will fund their bank account and distribute reimbursements to the appropriate policy holder via direct deposit or paper check (whichever method is selected by the policy holder). b) In addition to the monthly check runs scheduled near the first of each month, another check run occurs on the fifteenth of each month to help ensure direct payment of premium payments to employers, ESI plans, and COBRA administrators and to help ensure payment for cases pended and released later in the month.

West Virginia complies with the following TPL requirements: Social Security Act Section 1902 (a)(25)(E): Applying cost avoidance procedures to claims for prenatal services, including labor, delivery, and postpartum care services. Social Security Act Section 1902 (a)(25)(E): Making payment without regard to potential third-party liability for pediatric preventive services, unless the state has made a determination related to cost-effectiveness and access to care that warrants cost avoidance for up to 90 days. Social Security Act Section 1902 (a)(25)(F): Making payment for claims related to child support enforcement beneficiaries without regard to potential third-party liability, if payment has not been made by the third party within 100 days after the provider submitted a claim to the third party, except that West Virginia may make such payment within 30 days after such date if it determines doing so is cost effective and necessary to ensure access to care. Threshold Amounts for Purposes of Seeking Recovery from a Liable Third Party Pursuant to 42 C.F.R §433.139(f)(2). West Virginia will seek recovery unless the agency determines that the recovery will not be cost effective.
