NOTICE OF PUBLIC COMMENT PROCESS FOR MEDICAID SECTION §1115 BEHAVIORAL HEALTH DEMONSTRATION WAIVER
Public Comment Period Opens: November 28, 2017
Public Comment Period Closes: December 29, 2017 at 5:00 pm AST
Public notice is hereby given that the State of Alaska’s Department of Health and Social Services (DHSS) is seeking public comments on a Section 1115 Behavioral Health Demonstration Waiver application to support the comprehensive reform of Alaska’s Medicaid supported behavioral health system.
Program Summary
DHSS is requesting approval of a Section 1115 Behavioral Health Demonstration Waiver from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) to develop a data-driven, integrated behavioral health system of care for children, youth, and adults with serious mental illness, severe emotional disturbance, and/or substance use disorders. The demonstration project also seeks to increase services for at-risk families in order to support the healthy development of children and adults through increased outreach, prevention and early intervention supports.
Program Background
In 2016 the Alaska Legislature passed Senate Bill 74, a multi-dimensional Medicaid reform package that includes 16 separate and significant initiatives including direction to apply for a Section 1115 Medicaid waiver to enable the state to more efficiently manage a comprehensive and integrated behavioral health system. The bill also directs the state to reduce operational barriers, minimize administrative burden, and improve the effectiveness and efficiency of Alaska’s behavioral health system.
In order to proactively address the many goals and expectations of the Alaska legislature and improve the long-term outcomes for Alaskans, DHSS has brought together community members, tribal entities, behavioral health providers, other concerned stakeholders, and contracted with Medicaid experts to develop an 1115 waiver proposal that seeks to address the complex behavioral health needs of Alaskans.
Goals and Objectives
The Alaska 1115 Behavioral Health Demonstration Waiver seeks to provide Alaskans with a comprehensive continuum of cost-effective, high quality behavioral health services designed to ensure access to the right services at the right time in the right setting. The goals and objectives of the application are:
Goal 1: Rebalance the current behavioral health system of care to reduce Alaska’s over-reliance on acute, institutional care and shift to more community or regional-based care.
Objectives:
Decrease use of inpatient hospital and emergency department care episodes.
Decrease use of residential out-of-home placements.
Increase regionally-based capacity for a continuum of intensive outpatient, day treatment, intensive case management, community and recovery support, home-based family, assertive community treatment, and ambulatory withdrawal management services.
Develop community-based, culturally appropriate behavioral health workforce capacity to address existing workforce deficits.
Goal 2: Intervene as early as possible in the lives of Alaskans to address behavioral health symptoms before symptoms cascade into functional impairments.
Objectives:
Provide universal screening to identify symptoms.
Provide brief, solution-focused interventions to prevent acute care.
Provide care as close as possible to the homes or regional-hub communities of Alaskans.
Goal 3: Improve the overall behavioral health system accountability by reforming the existing system of care.
Objectives:
Contract with an Administrative Services Organization (ASO) to manage Alaska’s existing system of behavioral health care.
Improve the consistency of screening, assessment, and service/placement decisions through use of evidence-based and evidence-informed tools.
Standardize and streamline documentation requirements to reduce duplication of effort and facilitate coordination of care across all providers.
Support provider development of infrastructures necessary to coordinate care, report and achieve performance/quality measures, report per capita BH costs, and improve participant outcomes.
Delivery System Changes
Alaska’s proposed Section 1115 Behavioral Health Demonstration Waiver is aimed at a subset of its Medicaid population that is currently covered under the Medicaid State Plan. Individuals who fit into the three target populations will be eligible to receive an enhanced set of services designed to address their clinical and social needs. These three targeted populations of Medicaid recipients include:
1. Children, adolescents and their parents or caretakers with or at risk of mental health and substance-use disorders.
2. Individuals with acute mental health needs.
3. Individuals with substance-use disorders.
As of October 2017, approximately 179,727 individuals were enrolled in Alaska’s Medicaid program. The following table estimates the average annual enrollment of beneficiaries for each year of the demonstration project.

Demonstration Project Hypothesis and Evaluation
The State of Alaska will conduct an independent evaluation to measure and monitor the outcomes of the Section 1115 Behavioral Health Demonstration project. The evaluation will focus on five key areas: access, service utilization, quality, costs, and integration of care. The evaluators will assess the impact of providing an enriched continuum of local and regional behavioral health services under the proposed waiver, with particular focus on the waiver’s impacts over time on the utilization of residential treatment beds, emergency department visits, inpatient hospital stays and hospital readmissions rates.
Hypothesis 1: Increased access to sub-acute, community- or regionally-based outpatient treatment services will:
Reduce residential lengths of stay
Reduce avoidable Inpatient hospital use
Reduce avoidable Emergency Department use
Reduce readmissions to Inpatient and residential care
Reduce the number of out-of-state residential placements of Alaska’s children/youth
Hypothesis 2: Alaskans will achieve improved health outcomes as a result of behavioral health Medicaid reform by:
Reducing the % of readmissions after hospitalization for mental illness
Reducing the number of children utilizing residential treatment services
Increasing the number of physical health referrals, treatment and monitoring for children with behavioral health diagnoses
Early identification of symptoms through universal screening for substance use disorders, mental health disorders, or developmental issues impacting on family stability
Hypothesis 3: Increased access to appropriate behavioral health care will reduce Alaska’s average behavioral health Medicaid per capita cost.
Hypothesis 4: Increased access to home-based family treatment and wrap-around services will:
Reduce the number out-of-home placements
Increase the number of family reunifications
Reduce the number of children/youth in Office of Children’s Services custody
Reduce the number of children/youth under Division of Juvenile Justice supervision
Reduce the number of children/youth entering or re-entering foster care
Reduce the number of children in residential care
Hypothesis 5: Increased access to Medication Assisted Treatment Care Coordination services will:
Reduce the % of past month alcohol use
Reduce the % of past month adult binge drinking
Reduce the % of past month opioid use
Decrease mortality rate associated with opioid abuse
Improve physical health care by reducing number of inpatient general hospital visits by MAT participants
Reduce the annual cost of physical and behavioral health care for MAT participants
Proposed Federal Authorities Waived
Proper and Efficient Administration §1902(a)(4)
Rationale: Mandate beneficiaries into a single Administrative Services Organization (ASO).
Comparability §1902(a)(17)
Rationale: This waiver program includes benefits specific to eligibility criteria as described in Section II that will not be available to other Medicaid beneficiaries.
Amount, Duration, and Scope §1902(a)(10)(B)
Rationale: To enable the State to offer a different benefit package to the demonstration participants that varies in amount, duration, and scope from the benefits offered under the State Plan.
Freedom of Choice §1902(a)(23)(A)45
Rationale: Beneficiaries enrolled in the program must receive services through the ASO.
Choice of Coverage §1932(a)(3)
Rationale: To enable the state to assign demonstration participants to ASO based on geography and to permit participant choice of provider, but not plan.
Methods of Administration: Transportation §1902(a)(4), insofar as it incorporates 42 CFR 431.53
Rationale: To enable the state to assure transportation to and from providers for the Demonstration participants.
Eligibility Standards §1902(a)(17)
