Key Changes in Managed CareSupport Contracts (T-2017)
Goal: Modernize and Sustain the Benefit while Preparing for the Future and taking into account the dynamic changes in healthcare such as the ACA, EHR and PCMH
Two RegionsImproved Efficiency / Automation: •Electronic data system for the Medical Management/Utilization Management program that will offer real time access, reporting and information•Encourages electronic claims processing•Electronic Delivery of beneficiary notifications and education•Contractors must connect to Government Referral Management System and health information exchanges (HIEs)•Align Call Centers with Best Practices

TRICARE Initiatives – FY 2016 NDAA
• Access to care for Prime beneficiaries
• Waiver of recoupment of erroneous payments
• Portability of TRICARE Prime coverage
• Pilot program on urgent care visits
• Pilot program on incentive programs (value based contracting)
• Plan to improve experience with and eliminate performance variability (Purchased Care)
9
TRICARE Initiatives – Mental Health Parity
• Eliminates any differential in cost-sharing between mental health and substance use disorder (SUD) benefits and medical/surgical benefits:o Reduce outpatient mental health copayments for Non Active Duty Dependents (NADD) under TRICARE Prime
from $25 per visit to $12 per visit for individual visits from $17 per visit to $12 per visit for group visits
o Reduce Retiree and NADD Prime per diem for PHP from $40 inpatient rate billed to outpatient rate of $12 per day
o Reduce Active Duty Family Member (ADFM) Extra/Standard cost sharing for inpatient mental health from a $20 per day to $18/day (medical/surgical)
While the Mental Health Parity Act of 1996, Mental Health Parity Addiction Equity Act (MHPAEA) of 2008, and plan benefit provisions contained in the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act do not apply to the TRICARE program, DoD fully supports the principle of mental health parity; aligning the TRICARE benefit with Mental Health Parity is one of the President’s MH Executive Actions (Aug 2014)
10
TRICARE Initiatives – TRICARE Extended Care Health Option (ECHO) Expansion*• Identify Gaps in ECHO Provided Services
o Survey being developed on EFMP, ECHO and institutional care• Evaluate increasing respite care and providing incontinence supplies
o Proposed rule to decouple respite care with another ECHO benefit is in coordinationo Incontinence supply coverage for those ECHO enrolled beneficiaries over age 3 started Oct 1, 2015
• Conduct an Investigation into Requirements for Providing Custodial Careo High level cost analysis performed but need survey results to determine ECHO expansion to incorporate custodial care, consumer-directed care or other Medicaid Home and Community Based Services
• Identify Services Provided under State Medicaid for Utility for our Populationo Survey will be used to identify gaps in care so TRICARE does not expend unnecessary resources for services that would not be useful or valued by ECHO beneficiaries
• Identify Requirements and Costs Associated with Consumer Directed Care Program
