The California Advancing and Innovating Medi-Cal (CalAIM) initiative will implement broad reforms to California’s Medicaid delivery system, programs, and payment methodologies. It is intended to reduce system complexity, increase flexibility, improve quality of care, and drive system transformation using value-based initiatives and payment reform. In the multi-year implementation, some of the provisions are slated to go live by January 1, 2022 and the final provisions are projected to go live by 2027. California’s transformation includes leveraging lessons learned from the state and counties Whole Person Care, Health Homes Program, and Coordinated Care Initiative, through integrated approaches for behavioral health, addiction treatment, and primary care for complex populations. Beginning January 1, 2022, the managed care Medi-Cal health plans will implement new contracts with specialty provider organizations to deliver Enhanced Case Management and In Lieu of Services for adult SMI populations.
In this OPEN MINDS exclusive invite-only session for California specialty provider organizations, we will learn the technology provider organizations will need to successfully provide services under these new managed care contracts, value-based reimbursement, and for the years to come.
In this session we will cover:
- CalAIM And The Impact On The Role Of Specialty Provider Organizations
- Technology Functionality Check List
- Best Practice Approach To Budgeting And Selecting New Technology
