How do I count for Care Management elements #21- 23 , ‘CountMail’,’CountPhone’, ‘CountPerson’?Elements 21, 22, and 23 capture counts of intervention conducted for or with the member during the reporting period. Count includes interventions conducted by CM & staff with or on behalf of the member/legal representative/ family . Count does not include interventions conducted by health care providers, other organizations or health plans. Each intervention should be assigned to one of the three following categories

21 – CountMail: Individualized letters or emails sent during reporting period. Mailings or email message or ONLY pre-written materials not specific to individual should not be included 22 – CountPhone: Count phone call interactions or texting made during reporting period.

Both incoming and outgoing phone call interactions countAutomated voice messages, attempted phone calls or texting, or leaving voice mail messages should not be counted

23 – CountPerson: Count each in-person interaction during the reporting period

Fact GP & Functional Questionnaire scoring sheet influence on acuity score – The results of the FACT-GP and HH Functional Assessment will not directly impact the acuity score of the member. We are collecting this information and will be using it to get a more global sense of the population, including understanding the overall health of the population. We will be evaluating the data to determine its future utility in evaluating our members.

Homelessness scoring on the FactGP/HH Functional Assessment – Homelessness is scored on a Yes and No basis. A higher score represents better health, a score of “0” indicates that the member was homeless in the last 7 days; if they are housed, the score is “8”.

8 points for NO 0 for YES

If the Care Management Program has converted to Health Home rate codes, the FACT GP and HH Functional Assessments are required to be completed on all active clients. If you have not submitted information to the Health Home you must do so immediately.

If you completed the assessments in 2012, then those scores should be put on the partial spreadsheet template and submitted to the Lead Health Home to which the clients have been assigned.( see Webinar Session #4, Slide 6, 3/13/13)

If you did not complete them in 2012, you should be completing them on all active clients (Legacy or Health Home) from here on out and report those scores with the rest of the HH-CMART data for 2013 using the method agreed upon with the Lead Health Home

Care Management Programs lacking agreements with Lead Health Homes – Care Management Programs that do not have agreements with a Health Home, but have “converting TCM to Health Home members” should collect & keep the FACT GP and HH Functional Assessments to send to HH after an agreement is in place. Fact GP / HH Functional Assessments on clients that are ‘case closed’ – If a case has been closed and you have the data collected, then submit the assessment data on all former and currently active Health Home members (i.e. case re-opened) to the assigned Lead Health Home

Examples: If a FACT GP and HH Functional Assessments are completed by the member, and later in the quarter the case is closed, report the scores to the Lead Health Home. Submit also if case had been closed and is now re-opened. If the case is closed before the member completes the FACT GP and HH Functional Assessments, then the scores cannot be reported.

The Health Home FACT-GP / HH Functional Assessments should be collected to assess every member upon engagement, annually and at discharge.

The scores are tabulated using the FACT GP and Health Home Questionnaire Scoring Sheet. The scoring sheet scores are entered into the HH CMART tool or whatever agreed upon method between the Lead HH & CM Program

Data Vs. Billing - The HH-CMART tool is for data submission purposes only and is not to be intended to be used for billing purposes. HH CMART completion & Member Tracking System - Data must be sent in on the Member Tracking System in order for the HH-CMART data to be complete.

See elements represented as blue font and descriptions in Technical Specifications document.
