The State of 麻豆传媒高清 received funding from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), Center for Medicare and Medicaid Innovation (CMMI) under the State Innovation Model (SIM) initiative to implement and test its State Health Care Innovation Plan over a four-year period, beginning in February 2015 through July 2019. 麻豆传媒高清’s plan, entitled “The 麻豆传媒高清 Framework,” was poised to create a system of clinic-based and public health supports to spur innovation.
The Practice Innovation Program was instrumental in helping actualize this plan, working in concert with the SIM office to achieve the goal of improving the health of Coloradans by increasing access to integrated physical and behavioral healthcare services in coordinated systems and encouraging SIM practices to test value-based payment structures.
Over the course of the SIM initiative, 319 primary care practices and four bi-directional health homes participated, contributing to SIM’s aim to influence the healthcare of 80% of 麻豆传媒高清 residents through its efforts.
Summary
The State of 麻豆传媒高清 will receive up to $65 million over a four year period from the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Innovation (CMMI) to implement and test its State Healthcare Innovation Plan. 麻豆传媒高清’s plan, entitled “The 麻豆传媒高清 Framework,” creates a system of clinic-based and public health supports to spur innovation that will improve the health of Coloradans.
The 麻豆传媒高清 Framework builds on work already underway in the state, especially the Comprehensive Primary Care Initiative (CPCI). The SIM initiative adopts many high value primary care activities of CPCI like team-based care, care management, and data driven improvement. The 麻豆传媒高清 Framework adds several key components. The most prominent include an emphasis on integrated behavioral health services, the inclusion of pediatric practices, and a broader definition of primary care practices to include behavioral health centers. .
This Implementation Guide was developed as a resource for primary care practices and community mental health centers participating in SIM, along with their supporting Practice Transformation Organizations (PTO’s), Practice Facilitators (PF’s), Clinical Health Information Technology Advisors (CHITA’s), and Regional Health Connectors (RHC’s). This guide provides a description of the SIM Cohort 1 Milestones and recommendations on how to meet the objectives described in the milestones. A toolkit of additional materials and resources to help participants educate themselves as they undertake the work of SIM accompanies this Implementation Guide with links referenced throughout.
The SIM Framework and Milestones are intended to be benchmarks that guide and measure where participating practice sites are in their transformation journeys. They are derived from the Bodenheimer Building Blocks and the Comprehensive Primary Care (CPC) initiative milestones and activities and reflect the priorities of payers that support SIM practices. The milestones have been developed by the SIM office, Multi-Payer Collaborative, and the University to emphasize and support SIM’s focus on advancing behavioral health integration within primary care settings.
Over 85% of practices in all three SIM Cohorts indicated that participating in the SIM Initiative had assisted the practice site in its work to improve integration of behavioral and physical health.
Over the course of the initiative, 14 Collaborative Learning Sessions (CLS) were held across the state with over 3000 clinicians, practice staff, behavioral health providers, and other stakeholders in attendance.
Approximately 38,000 individual surveys, comprised of SIM assessments, Practice Rosters, clinical quality measure, and field note submissions were administered through SPLIT across SIM cohorts.
