211.000 Enrollment Eligibility
To be eligible to enroll in the PCMH program:
DMS may modify the number of attributed beneficiaries required
for enrollment based on provider experience and will publish at
212.000 Practice Enrollment
Enrollment in the PCMH program is voluntary and practices must
re-enroll annually. To enroll, practices must access the Advanced Health
Information Network (AHIN) provider portal and submit a complete and accurate
Arkansas Medicaid Patient-Centered Medical Home Practice Participation
Agreement (DMS-844). The AHIN portal can be accessed at
A physician may be affiliated with only one participating practice. A participating practice must update the Department of Human Services (DHS) on changes to the list of physicians who are part of the practice. Physicians who are no longer participating within a practice are required to update in writing via email at ARKPCMH(S)hp.com within 30 days of the change.
To withdraw from the PCMH program, the participating practice must email a complete and accurate Arkansas Patient-Centered Medical Home Withdrawal Form (DMS-846) to ARKPCMH(S)hp.com. View or print the Arkansas Patient-Centered Medical Home Withdrawal Form (DMS-846)or download the form from the AHIN provider portal.
213.000 Enrollment Schedule
Enrollment is open for approximately 3 months in Quarter 3 and Quarter 4 of the preceding calendar year.
DMS will not accept any enrollment documents received other than during an enrollment period.
214.000 Caseload Management
A participating practice must manage its caseload of attributed beneficiaries, including removal of a beneficiary from its panel. DMS retains the right to disallow beneficiary removals if it was determined it was done so to dismiss high costs and/or high-risk patients from the panel.
221.000 Practice Support Scope
Practice support includes both care coordination payments made to a PCMH and practice transformation support provided by a Division of Medical Services (DMS) contracted vendor and is subject to funding limitations on the part of DMS.
Receipt and use of the care coordination payments is not conditioned on the PCMH engaging a care coordination vendor, as payment can be used to support participating practices' investments (e.g., time and energy) in enacting changes to achieve PCMH goals. Care coordination payments are risk-adjusted to account for the varying levels of care coordination services needed for beneficiaries with different risk profiles.
DMS will contract with a practice transformation vendor on behalf of PCMHs that require additional support to catalyze practice transformation and retain and use such vendor. PCMHs must maintain documentation of the months they have contracted with a practice transformation vendor. Practice transformation vendors must report to DMS the level and type of service delivered to each PCMH. Payments to a practice transformation vendor on behalf of a participating practice may continue for up to 24 months.
However, no practice support may extend beyond June 30, 2017, regardless of the number of months practice support was received by a practice. PCMHs may contract with only one vendor at a given time. PCMHs are able to change vendors at any time with notification in writing to the outgoing vendor and DMS. Failure to provide written notification will result in the PCMH being liable for any duplicate payments.
DMS may pay, recover or offset overpayment or underpayment of care coordination payments.
DMS will also support PCMHs through improved access to information through the reports described in Section 244.000.
222.000 Practice Support Eligibility
In addition to the enrollment eligibility requirements listed in Section 211.000, in order for PCMHs to receive practice support, DMS measures PCMH performance against activities tracked for practice support identified in Section 241.000. PCMHs must meet the requirements of this section to receive practice support.
Each PCMH in a shared entity will, if individually qualified, receive practice support even if another PCMH in a shared savings entity does not qualify for practice support.
223.000 Care Coordination Payment Amount
The care coordination payment is risk adjusted based on factors
including demographics (age, sex), diagnoses and utilization. DMS will publish
the current payment scale at
After each quarter, DMS may pay, recover or offset the care coordination payments to ensure that a PCMH did not receive a care coordination payment for any beneficiary who died, lost eligibility or if the practice lost eligibility during the quarter.
If a PCMH withdraws from the PCMH program, then the PCMH is only eligible for care coordination payments based on a complete quarter's participation in the PCMH program.
232.000 Shared Savings Incentive Payments Eligibility
To receive shared savings incentive payments, a shared savings entity must have a minimum of 5,000 attributed beneficiaries once the exclusions listed below have been applied. A shared savings entity may meet this requirement as a single PCMH or by pooling attributed beneficiaries across more than one PCMH as described in Section 233.000.
DMS may add, remove or adjust these exclusions based on new research, empirical evidence, provider experience with select beneficiary populations or inclusion of new payers. DMS will publish such an addition, removal or modification on
Eligibility requirements for shared savings for Comprehensive Primary Care (CPC) practices are described in Section 251.000.
Shared savings payments are made to the individual PCMHs which are part of a shared savings entity. These payments are risk- and time- adjusted and prorated based on the number of beneficiaries of each PCMH. These payments are predicated on each PCMH maintaining eligibility for practice support as described in Section 222.000.
233.000 Pools of Attributed Beneficiaries
Shared savings entities will meet the minimum pool size of 5,000 attributed beneficiaries as described in Section 232.000 in one of three ways:
In the methods B and C listed above, PCMHs have their performance measured together by aggregating performance of the per beneficiary cost of care. In the method B, the quality metrics are tracked for shared savings incentive payments across all the PCMHs in the pool. In the method C, the quality metrics are tracked for shared savings incentive payments on an individual PCMH level. A shared savings entity's configuration (A, B orC) is established during the enrollment period and cannot be changed after the end of the enrollment period.
234.000 Requirements for Joining and Leaving Pools
PCMHs may voluntarily pool for purposes described in Section 233.000 before the end of the enrollment period that precedes the start of the performance period. To pool, the participating practice must email a complete and accurate Arkansas Medicaid Patient-Centered Medical Home Program Pooling Request Form (DMS-845) to ARKPCMH@hp.com. View or print the Arkansas Medicaid Patient-Centered Medical Home Program Pooling Request Form.You can also download the form from the AHIN provider portal.
The DMS-845 Pooling form must be executed by all PCMHs participating in the pool. Before the end of the enrollment period, PCMHs that are on their own or through pooling do not reach a minimum of 5,000 attributed beneficiaries will be assigned to the default pool. Individual PCMHs whose attribution changes during the performance period will be classified as standalone or default pool members according to their attribution count at the end of the performance period. This exception does not apply to voluntary pools.
Pooling is effective for a single performance period and must be renewed for each subsequent year.
When a PCMH has voluntarily pooled, its performance is measured in the associated shared savings entity throughout the duration of the performance period unless it withdraws from the PCMH program during the performance period. When a PCMH in the voluntary pool withdraws from the PCMH program, any and all PCMHs in the shared savings entity will have their performance measured as if the withdrawn PCMH had never participated in the pool.
235.000 Per Beneficiary Cost of Care Calculation
Each year, the per beneficiary cost of care performance is aggregated and assessed across a shared savings entity. Per beneficiary cost of care is calculated as the risk- and time-adjusted average of such entity's attributed beneficiaries' total fee-for-service claims (based on the published reimbursement methodology) during the annual performance period, with adjustments and exclusions as defined below.
One hundred percent of the dollar value of care coordination payments is included in the per beneficiary cost of care calculation.
As described in Section 232.000, beneficiaries not counted toward the minimum number of attributed beneficiaries for shared savings incentive payments will be excluded from the calculation of per beneficiary cost of care.
Some costs are excluded from the calculation of per beneficiary cost of care. Each year DMS will announce which costs are excluded at
236.000 Baseline and Benchmark Cost Calculations
DMS will calculate a historical baseline per beneficiary cost of care for each shared savings entity. This shared savings entity-specific historical baseline will be calculated as a multi-year blended average of each shared savings entity's per beneficiary cost of care.
DMS will calculate benchmark costs for each shared savings entity by applying a 2.6% benchmark trend to the entity's historical baseline per beneficiary cost of care. DMS may reevaluate the value of this benchmark trend if the annual, system-average per beneficiary cost of care growth rate differs significantly from a benchmark, to be specified by DMS. DMS will publish any modification to the benchmark trend at
237.000 Shared Savings Incentive Payments Amounts
A shared savings entity is eligible to receive a shared savings incentive payment that is the greater of:
If the shared savings entity's per beneficiary cost of care falls below the current performance period medium cost threshold, then the shared savings entity may be eligible for a shared savings incentive payment for absolute performance. The per beneficiary shared savings incentive payment for absolute performance for which the entity may be eligible is calculated as follows: ([medium cost threshold for that performance period] - [per beneficiary cost of care for that performance period]) * [50%].
Shared savings calculations under absolute performance and performance improvements are subject to the following criteria:
These thresholds reflect an annual increase of 1.5% from the base year thresholds (base year medium cost threshold: $1,972; base year high cost threshold: $2,638) and will increase by 1.5% each subsequent year. Adjustments to the thresholds will be posted at
www.paymentinitiative.org/referenceMaterials/Documents/2016PCMHProgramPolicy Addendum.pdf.
www.paymentinitiative.org/referenceMaterials/Documents/2016PCMHProgram PolicyAddendum.pdf.
If participating practices have pooled their attributed beneficiaries together, then shared savings incentive payments will be allocated to those practices based on risk- and time-adjustment and in proportion to the number of attributed beneficiaries that each PCMH contributed to such pool.
241.000 Activities Tracked for Practice Support
Using the provider portal, participating PCMHs must complete and document the activities as announced by DMS at
242.000 Accountability for Practice Support
If a PCMH does not meet deadlines and targets for activities tracked for practice support as described in Section 241.000, then the practice must remediate its performance to avoid suspension or termination of practice support.
DMS will verify whether attestation and required documentation was submitted as required by the PCMH program. Failure to comply with this requirement will result in a Notice of Attestation Failure.
DMS will also validate whether attested activities met the PCMH program requirements. Failure to pass validation will result in a Notice of Validation Failure.
PCMHs which received a Notice of Attestation Failure and/or PCMHs which received a Notice of Validation Failure will have 15 calendar days to submit sufficient QIP. Failure to submit sufficient QIP within 15 days of receiving a Notice of Attestation Failure and/or a Notice of Validation Failure will result in suspension or termination of practice support. PCMHs which receive a Notice of Attestation Failure will have 90 days to remediate their performance from the date of the Notice of Attestation Failure. PCMHs which received a Notice of Validation Failure will have 45 days to remediate their performance from the date of the Notice of Validation Failure.
If a PCMH fails to meet the deadlines or targets for activities within the specified remediation time, then DMS will suspend or terminate practice support.
243.000 Quality Metrics Tracked for Shared Savings Incentive Payments
DMS assesses quality metrics tracked for shared savings
incentive payments according to the targets announced by DMS at
244.000 Provider Reports
DMS provides participating PCMH provider reports containing information about their PCMH performance on activities tracked for practice support, quality metrics tracked for shared savings incentive payments and their per beneficiary cost of care via the provider portal.
Providers who have concerns about information included in their reports should send an email to PCMH(S)AFMC.org. The PCMH Quality Assurance Manager will respond to the provider/practice with a review of their inquiry. If the review leads to a discovery that the provider report is inaccurate or does not reflect actual performance, DMS will take the necessary steps to correct the inaccuracies including those that are a result of a systems and/or algorithm error. Providers can also call the APII help desk at 501-301-8311 or 866-322-4698 and by email at ARKPII@HPE.com.
If you disagree with DMS' decision regarding program participation, payment or other adverse action, you have the right to request reconsideration and you have the right to request an administrative appeal.
The Division of Medical Services must receive written request for reconsideration within (30) calendar days of the Date of the adverse action, notice. Send your request to the Director, Division of Medical Services P.O. Box 1437, Slot S401, Little Rock, AR 72203.
The Arkansas Department of Health must receive a written appeals request within (30) calendar days of the date of the adverse action notice, or within (10) calendar days of receiving a reconsideration decision. Send your request to Arkansas Department of Health: Attention: Medicaid Provider Appeals Office, 4815 West Markham Street, Slot 31, Little Rock, AR 72205.
