MSBA  Medicaid  Consortium,  2011  ©  Missouri  School  Boards’  Association  

Dear  SDAC  Participant,  The  commitment  of  your  school  district  to  be  involved  in  School  District  Administrative  Claiming  (SDAC)  under  MO  HealthNet  Division  (Missouri’s  Medicaid  division)  began  with  a  commitment  by  your  Board  of  Education  in  concert  with  your  community.    According  to  the  MO  HealthNet  Division  (MHD)  School  District  Administrative  Claiming  Manual,  “To  effectively  implement  the  program  in  a  district  at  least  two  primary  supports  exist:  (a)  the  Board  of  Education  endorses  and  actively  promotes  the  effort  within  the  community;  and  (b)  the  administration  provides  the  leadership  and  support  required.      With  these  supports  in  place,  the  district’s  activities  and  the  goals  of  the  program  will  be  compatible.”  

You  have  been  selected  by  administrative  leadership  in  your  district  to  be  a  participant  in  the  SDAC  program  because  of  the  roles  and  responsibilities  you  are  expected  to  assume  as  a  part  of  your  job.    The  SDAC  program  is  important  to  your  school  district  for  two  reasons:    1)  Through  SDAC  activities  conducted  by  persons  such  as  yourself,  it  is  possible  for  all  children  to  be  connected  to  and  access  needed  health  care  services  so  that  they  come  to  school  healthy  and  ready  to  learn;  and  2)  schools  get  reimbursed  for  eligibility  outreach,  coordination,  and  referral  activities  conducted  as  an  extension  of  MHD.  

We  need  your  help  in  order  to  be  successful  in  this  endeavor.    Please  take  your  involvement  seriously.    Become  knowledgeable  about  MHD  and  how  to  help  families  get  connected  to  health  care  services  within  your  school  and  community.    When  opportunities  arise—a  student  has  a  chronic  health  issue(s);  a  student  is  struggling,  acting  out,  or  frequently  absent;  a  student  is  pregnant,  appears  depressed  or  not  feeling  well  on  a  frequent  basis—be  prepared  to  advocate  on  behalf  of  the  student  and  his/her  potential  health  needs.    Take  the  necessary  steps  within  your  school  and/or  community  to  connect  families  and  students  to  needed  health  care,  including  helping  them  to  get  the  necessary  information  to  become  insured  by  MO  HealthNet,  if  deemed  eligible.    Work  with  parents  to  make  medical  referrals;  collaborate  with  colleagues  regarding  a  child’s  health  condition  and  treatment;  and  follow-­‐up  with  medical  providers  within  the  district  and  within  the  community  regarding  a  student’s  medical  condition-­‐-­‐all,  as  appropriate  and  in  accordance  with  law,  to  ensure  health  needs  of  students  are  met.            

Thank  you  for  your  dedication  and  service  to  the  children  of  Missouri.    If  you  have  questions  about  any  content  in  this  manual,  please  contact  your  school  district’s  SDAC  Coordinator  or  Missouri  School  Boards’  Association.

ELECTRONIC  RMS  PROCESS If  you  are  chosen  to  be  sampled  during  a  particular  quarter,  you  will  receive  a  notification  of  your  exact  date  and  time  of  your  moment  in  an  e-­‐mail  2  business  days  prior  to  your  assigned  moment.    When  you  open  the  e-­‐mail  it  will  give  you  (3)  three  steps  to  follow:      Step  1:    “Write  down  your  SDAC  PIN.”  This  pin  is  used  when  completing  your  electronic  RMS  form.      You  cannot  complete  your  moment  without  this  PIN  as  it  is  your  electronic  signature.    This  is  a  good  time  to  also  make  note  of  the  date  and  time  of  your  selected  moment.      Step  2:    Click  on  the  “Confirm”  link.      This  is  a  very  important  step  because  it  alerts  your  SDAC  coordinator  that  you  know  that  you  have  received  and  read  the  notification  e-­‐mail  and  that  you  are  aware  of  your  upcoming  moment.      It  is  critical  that  the  confirm  link  be  clicked  before  your  moment  in  time.  Step  3:    The  final  step,  which  can't  be  done  until  after  the  moment  occurs,  is  to  click  on  the  “FILL  OUT  FORM”  link.    The  actual  link  takes  you  to  your  electronic  RMS  form.      This  step  is  very  time  sensitive.    You  cannot  access  the  form  or  click  on  the  link  until  the  moment  has  passed.  You  should  complete  the  RMS  form  within  two  (2)  to  five  (5)  business  days  after  the  moment.    We  understand  there  are  reasons  why  you  cannot  meet  the  timeline,  such  as  illness  or  a  week  of  snow  days.  Complete  the  form  when  you  return  to  school  or  access  it  while  absent  through  your  district  e-­‐mail  account.            The  day  your  moment  is  to  occur  you  should  receive  another  reminder  e-­‐mail  about  your  sample  moment.      This  e-­‐mail  will  only  contain  2  steps:    Step  1:    Write  down  your  SDAC  Pin.  Step  2:    “Fill  out  Form”  link.    Assuming  your  moment  has  now  passed  and  you  have  clicked  on  the  “Fill  out  Form”  link,  you  will  now  see  an  electronic  RMS  form  like  the  one  in  this  booklet.  Now  complete  the  five  (5)  steps  below:    

1. Write  a  brief  description  of  your  activity  at  the  assigned  time.  2. Check  1  box  to  indicate  your  position.  3. Check  1  box  to  indicate  activity  code  related  to  activity  description.  4. Enter  your  unique  SDAC  PIN.  5. Click  “Send  to  SDAC  Coordinator.”    

 The  process  is  now  complete  unless  clarification  is  requested  by  either  your  district  SDAC  Coordinator  or  MSBA  Medicaid  Consortium  and/or  corrections  are  necessary.

Note:  Follow  the  steps  below  when:    

1. You  have  received  a  RMS  “Sent  Back”  notice  via  email,  or  2. The  SDAC  Coordinator  finds  an  error  with  a  RMS  form  in  the  “Collected”  status.

KEY  TIMES  TO  CONDUCT  OUTREACH  

• At  enrollment,  if  the  student  does  not  have  health  insurance.  • Any  parent  conference  when  it  is  apparent  that  the  child  may  have  a  medical,  mental  or  

behavioral  health  problem  which  is  untreated  due  to  a  lack  of  health  insurance.  • When  the  school  becomes  aware  of  a  change  in  household  status  that  may  result  in  a  change  in  

eligibility  for  MO  HealthNet  coverage:  o Change  in  employment  status  of  one  or  both  parents,  such  as  a  loss  of  a  job  or  a  

reduction  in  hours.  o Change  in  household  composition:  

! One  parent  leaves  the  household;  or  ! Another  sibling  is  born  or  returns  to  the  home.  

 • When  working  with  a  pregnant  teen  that  needs  healthcare  coverage  for  herself  and  her

DISCUSSION  POINTS  FOR  MO  HEALTHNET  ELIGIBILITY  GUIDELINES  

 • There  is  basically  one  application  for  all  levels  of  coverage  under  MO  HealthNet.    The  Family  Support  

Division  (FSD)  will  make  the  determination  as  to  which  level  of  coverage  the  family/children  may  be  eligible.    

• On  the  MO  HealthNet  for  Kids  Eligibility  Chart,  FPL  refers  to  the  Federal  Poverty  Level.  o The  income  amounts  listed  are  the  maximum  monthly  income  the  family  may  have  and  still  

be  eligible  for  coverage.    For  example,  if  a  family  of  3  has  a  monthly  income  of  $4,633  or  less  they  may  be  eligible  under  one  of  the  coverage  levels.    The  Family  Support  Division  will  determine  which  level  based  on  all  eligibility  factors.    

• There  are  several  levels  of  coverage  under  the  MO  HealthNet  for  Kids  program.  o Children  who  already  have  some  type  of  healthcare  insurance  may  still  be  eligible  under  the  

Non-­‐SCHIP  levels.  o The  SCHIP  levels  are  only  available  to  children  who  have  been  uninsured  by  other  healthcare  

coverage  for  six  months  or  more.    

• Families  should  be  encouraged  to  submit  an  application  for  eligibility  determination  even  if  their  income  is  slightly  more  than  the  chart  indicates,  due  to  other  possible  income  deductions.      

o Please  encourage  families  to  contact  the  Family  Support  Division  if  they  have  other  questions  regarding  potential  eligibility.    FSD  staff  will  assist  the  family  in  fully  understanding  the  program  and  any  other  information  needed.      

o Also  share  with  the  family  that  even  if  they  do  not  qualify  for  MO  HealthNet  coverage,  there  may  be  other  programs  and  services  available  through  the  Family  Support  Division  to  assist  the  family  with  other  needs  such  as  food  stamps,  child  care  assistance,  etc.

SUPPLEMENT  TO  SDAC  ANNUAL  TRAINING  OF  PARTICIPANTS  

Completion  of  the  Random  Moment  Sample  (RMS)  Form    

When  completing  an  RMS  form,  there  are  three  major  data  points  that  must  be  completed:  1)  the  participant’s  position;  2)  the  activity  description;  and  3)  the  selection  of  the  code  that  most  closely  corresponds  with  the  activity  description.        

The  Participant’s  Position  

The  selection  of  a  proper  code  to  align  with  an  activity  description  is  sometimes  contingent  on  the  credentials  of  the  individual  completing  the  form.    The  required  MO  HealthNet  Division  RMS  form  contains  some  specification  of  licensure,  such  as  RN  and  LPN,  but  does  not  contain  others.    As  the  form  

cannot  be  changed,  it  is  necessary  for  some  individuals  completing  the  form  to  provide  additional  specific  information  regarding  licensure  or  position  so  that  it  can  be  determined  if  an  activity  is  correctly  coded.    Consequently,  if  you  are  licensed  or  certificated  in  one  of  the  following  areas,  please  always  

select  500  Other  and  specify  your  licensure  or  position.    If  you  hold  more  than  one  credential,  such  as  a  school  psychologist  who  is  also  a  licensed  psychologist,  choose  500  Other  and  indicate  the  licensure.  The  following  should  use  500  Other  followed  by  their  position  name  below,  instead  of  selecting  one  of  the  

listed  position  codes  appearing  on  the  form:    Licensed  Clinical  Social  Worker  (LCSW)     School  Counselor  

Licensed  Psychologist           School  Psychologist  Personal  Care  Attendant       School  Social  Worker    Professional  Counselor  (PC)       Speech  Implementer  

Speech  Language  Pathology  Assistant  (SLP-­‐A)    The  Activity  Description  

In  recent  audit  reviews  by  MHD,  RMS  forms  have  been  invalidated  because  activities  have  either  contained  too  much  information  or  were  too  vague  to  make  a  code  selection.  As  you  have  been  trained,  there  are  generally  three  questions  to  answer  when  describing  the  activity  you  were  engaged  in  at  your  

assigned  one  (1)  minute  time  period:  1)  Who  were  you  with?  2)  What  were  you  doing?  and,  3)  what  was  the  immediate  purpose  or  short-­‐term  intended  outcome  of  the  present  activity.  Important  words  in  question  3  are  immediate,  short-­‐term  and  present.    Answering  Question  3  is  not  always  necessary,  such  

as  when  you  are  “supervising  students,”  or  “teaching  a  group  of  students  a  science  lesson”  or  “conducting  a  speech  therapy  session.”  It  becomes  increasingly  important  when  you  are  involved  in  an  activity  that  would  be  coded  differently  depending  on  the  purpose  or  short-­‐term  intended  outcome  of  

the  activity.      Examples  would  be  “having  a  phone  conversation  with  a  parent,”  or  “in  a  meeting  with  the  principal,  

speech  pathologist,  and  general  education  teacher.”    If  the  purpose  of  the  phone  conversation  was  to  follow  up  on  missing  homework,  then  a  Code  3  would  be  selected.    If  the  purpose  of  the  phone  

conversation  was  to  discuss  a  child’s  recent  visit  to  the  physician,  then  a  code  9b  would  be  selected.  If

MSBA  Medicaid  Consortium,  2011  ©  Missouri  School  Boards’  Association  

the  purpose  of  the  meeting  was  to  gather  information  for  a  possible  academic  referral,  then  code  9a  would  be  selected.    If  the  purpose  of  the  meeting  was  to  gather  information  for  a  possible  referral  to  a  

behavioral  health  clinic  or  a  speech-­‐language  referral,  then  a  Code  9b  would  be  selected.    It  is  important  not  to  project  beyond  the  purpose  of  the  RMS  activity.    The  purpose  of  the  present  activity  should  be  what  is  stated,  such  as  “to  gather  information  in  advance  of  a  referral  for  a  possible  health  care  plan.”      

 When  in  a  meeting  If  you  are  in  a  meeting  during  your  assigned  moment,  simply  state  “I  was  in  a  meeting  with…  [fill  in  

positions  of  persons  in  the  meeting]  to  discuss…  or  to  determine…or  to  write…  or  to  plan…  or  to  gather  information  about…  or  to  review…  or  to  coordinate/monitor...,  etc.  [state  the  purpose/intended  outcome].    

   On  too  much  information…it  is  important  to  be  specific  enough  in  your  activity  description  to  know  what  is  occurring  and  the  purpose,  if  it  helps  to  determine  the  code,  but  any  additional  information  runs  

the  risk  of  being  discarded  as  too  much  information  to  tell  what  is  happening  during  the  assigned  single    moment  in  time.    For  example,  sometimes  people  give  a  long  list  of  activities  that  would  take  an  extended  period  of  time  to  perform  and  would  require  different  codes.  These  responses  would  be  

invalid.  Other  times  a  detailed  lesson  plan  is  written  or  activities  before  and  after  the  moment  in  time  are  described  or  a  complete  dialogue  is  provided.    This  is  not  necessary  as  it  serves  to  complicate  the  code  selection  process  and  most  likely  will  result  in  the  form  being  invalid.  

 On  being  too  vague…too  little  information  results  in  either  the  RMS  form  being  sent  back  to  you  for  

more  information  or  being  invalidated  because  it  is  impossible  to  determine  a  proper  code.    Examples  would  be:  “I  was  talking  with  a  parent  about  a  child.”  Or  “I  was  in  a  meeting.”    Without  knowing  the  topic  being  discussed  with  the  parent  or  with  whom  you  were  meeting  and  for  what  purpose,  it  is  

impossible  to  select  the  appropriate  code.                  Code  Selection  

Code  4  can  only  be  used  to  indicate  a  direct  medical  service  provided  by  a  properly  licensed  or  approved  position  by  MHD.    This  means  that  when  doing  the  same  activity,  two  individuals  may  chose  two  different  codes,  depending  on  their  credentials.    So,  who  can  use  Code  4  and  who  must  use  code  3  to  

indicate  the  same  direct  service  activity?    

  Can  Use  Code  4         Cannot  Use  Code  4/Must  Use  Code  3  RN/LPN           Nurse  Assistant    Personal  Care  Attendant     Health  Aide/Aide

Section  504  of  the  Rehabilitation  Act  The  Medicare  Catastrophic  Coverage  Act  of  1988  amended  the  Social  Security  Act  to  permit  Medicaid  

payment  for  services  (direct  and  administrative)  provided  to  children  under  the  IDEA  through  IEP’s.    This  exception  is  very  specific  and  does  not  extend  to  pay  for  Section  504  services.    Therefore,  activities  that  involve  writing  or  revising  a  504  Plan  are  coded  “3”.
