NCCHCA Press Release on HB 655: North Carolina Community Health Center Association Supports Covering the Uninsured Working Poor
 
HRSA Service Area Considerations
HRSA is pleased to announce the release of the Health Center Program Service Area Considerations Request for Information (RFI). HRSA seeks input from the public on service area considerations that may inform HRSA decisions regarding Health Center Program expansion through an existing health center’s addition of new service delivery sites.
These considerations include factors such as:
  • Parameters for unmet need;
  • Proximity;
  • Reasonable boundaries for the service area;
  • Consultation with other local providers;
  • Demonstrated capacity and performance in existing service area; and
  • Ensuring patient input/representation.
The Service Area RFI announcement will begin with a 30-day preview period. Instructions on how external stakeholders may submit feedback are forthcoming. Following the preview period, HRSA will accept public feedback for 60 days and plans to announce those details in a future Primary Health Care Digest newsletter. We look forward to receiving your feedback.
 
HRSA announces the availability of $200 million in supplemental funding for Integrated Behavioral Health Services (IBHS).
IBHS will increase access to high-quality integrated behavioral health services, including prevention or treatment of mental health conditions and/or substance use disorders, including opioid use disorder. Organizations currently receiving Health Center Program operational grant funding are eligible to apply for up to $145,000.
You can begin using the HRSA Electronic Handbooks (EHBs) application module on Friday, April 5, 2019. HRSA will email eligible organizations’ authorizing officials, business officials, and project directors the link to access the application. We encourage you to start developing your IBHS project now using the resources available on the IBHS Technical Assistance (TA) webpage.
Applications are due in EHBs by Monday, May 13, 2019, at 5:00 p.m. ET. HRSA expects to make awards in September.
For more information:

Oral Health Infrastructure
April 22. HRSA announced the availability of $76 million in one-time supplemental funding for Oral Health Infrastructure (OHI) to support health center infrastructure enhancements.

Notice of Funding Opportunity for Rural Providers: Small Health Care Provider Quality Improvement Program
Applications are due by Monday, April 22.
HRSA recently released a notice of funding opportunity that will support up to 32 public or private nonprofit health care providers located in rural areas to improve patient care in their communities. HRSA expects to invest approximately $6.4 million for this program, which aims to improve the quality of rural health care through an evidence-based approach to primary care that has proven effective in rural areas.
Previously funded organizations under this program designed and carried out projects focused on coordinated care for patients, chronic disease management, integrated care delivery systems, and reduced admissions for emergency rooms and hospitals, among other issues for rural providers. Objectives for this program, which is competitive every three years, include improved health outcomes, better engagement of patients and their caregivers, and continuous improvement to chronic disease management. Grantees also are encouraged to implement quality improvement activities that measure value by outcomes, establish and maintain PCMHs, and integrate behavioral health into the primary care setting.
View the announcement on Grants.gov to learn more.


2019 Patient Target EHBs Notification to Health Centers
Beginning this week, HRSA is sending a tailored email from the Electronic Handbooks (EHBs) to each Health Center Program award recipient with a direct link to the patient target in EHBs. The Program Director should review the patient target and take appropriate action in EHBs by Friday, April 19. Email BPHCPatientTargets@hrsa.gov with questions. A recorded walk-through of the EHBs Patient Target Management Module and Patient Target Frequently Asked Questions are available on the Service Area Competition Technical Assistance (TA) website.

 

Outreach and Enrollment

April SNAP Benefits
NC DHHS continues to work towards getting SNAP households back on their normal benefit issuance schedule, which was disrupted by the federal shutdown earlier this year. Households that receive SNAP benefits between the 1st-11th of the month will receive their April SNAP benefits on their normal cycle. Households that receive benefits between the 12th-21st of the month will receive them on April 12. The regular issuance schedule will resume in May. Help spread the word by posting this flyer (available in English and Spanish) throughout your health center. Please note that SNAP is referred to as Food & Nutrition Services (FNS) in North Carolina.
 
Remind Consumers to Reconcile APTCs
Enrollment assisters should remind consumers to reconcile advanced premium tax credits (APTCs) received in 2018 when they file their taxes. Consumers can reconcile APTCs by using the information provided on Form 1095-A to complete Form 8962. If a consumer has not received Form 1095-A for their 2018 Marketplace coverage, they can log-in to their Marketplace account or call the Marketplace Call Center (1-800-318-2596) to obtain a copy. Consumers who fail to file a 2018 tax return and reconcile APTCs received in 2018 will not be issued PTCs for plan year 2020 until they take action.
 
Penalty Still Applies for Consumers Who Were Uninsured in 2018
Individuals who were uninsured for all or part of 2018 will be subject to a penalty when they complete their 2018 tax return, unless they qualify for an exemption. The penalty amount is a percentage of household income or a flat dollar amount, whichever is greater (see table below and the Tax Year 2018 Reference Guide).
 
Percent of Household Income Flat Dollar Amount
2.5% of income above tax filing threshold $695/adult; $347.50/child
Capped at annual cost of average premium of bronze level plan Capped at $2,085
 
Enrollment assisters can review exemptions individuals may be eligible for, possibly helping them avoid the penalty. The Exemptions Tool on Healthcare.gov, as well as this exemptions worksheet, can be used to assess possible exemptions an individual may be able to claim. The current tax season represents the last year uninsured individuals will be assessed the individual mandate penalty.

Is It Time for Your Re-verification Application? 
It's already been five years since the implementation of NCTracks, which means there are many providers who will need to complete re-verification over the next few months. If you haven't received a re-verification notification in your Message Center Inbox yet, you may be seeing it soon. To find your re-verification date, go to the NC Division of Medical Assistance (DMA)'s list of the providers who are due for re-verification in 2018 under 'Recredentialing' on the DMA Provider Enrollment webpage
 
Be sure to check your email and NCTracks Provider Portal for reminders on useful resources and tips for completing your application. To learn more, visit the Re-verification/Re-credentialing FAQs page today.

State Updates

NC lawmakers introduce telehealth legislation  
This week, NC lawmakers introduced legislation (HB 721: Increase Access to Telehealth Services) which would broaden the types of telehealth services that could be utilized and reimbursed under NC Medicaid, commercial plans and the State Employees Health Plan. This bill would improve quality of care and increase access for those in rural areas.

NC Medicaid Managed Care Training Courses

MCT 101 - Provider Transition to NC Medicaid Managed Care 101

A high-level overview for providers of the transition to NC Medicaid Managed Care. The webinar covers the vision and context of North Carolina's transformation to a managed care system, provides a close look at managed care key initiatives, and highlights opportunities for providers to be part of the process. Review Medicaid Enrollment Records in NCTracks in Advance of Managed Care
To ease the burden on credentialing with multiple Medicaid managed care plans, the NC Department of Health and Human Services selected a provider data contractor (PDC) – Wipro Infocrossing – to serve as the state’s centralized credentialing provider. Neither the PDC nor Medicaid prepaid health plans/managed care plans are permitted to reach out to providers to update credentialing information (this is meant to ease the burden on providers). Therefore, it is imperative that Medicaid providers keep their information up to date in NCTracks. As outlined in the NC Medicaid April bulletin, be sure to:
  • Review affiliations by location for accuracy
  • End-date any affiliations that are not current
  • Make sure physical addresses are correct with the accurate taxonomies
  • Review license, certification, and accreditation information
  • If necessary, begin the Managed Change Request process to make necessary corrections and updates

Healthcare Headlines

State
Lawmakers look for ways to cover more low-income uninsured
Two years ago, a group of Republicans in the North Carolina House of Representatives made a splash when they defied their party’s orthodoxy: They wanted to provide a way to get hundreds of thousands of low-income North Carolinians access to health insurance via the state’s Medicaid program. But they didn’t say they were “expanding Medicaid,” they called it Carolina Cares. This year, the same quartet of lawmakers are back, this time with a bill they’re calling the NC Health Care for Working Families Act. Again, Rep. Donny Lambeth (R-Winston-Salem) said that this was “a North Carolina solution.” Just don’t call it “Medicaid expansion.” Nonetheless, the bill uses the mechanism of the Medicaid program to cover people who fall in the “coverage gap” between the very low-income and disabled people who currently qualify for Medicaid, and people who earn enough to purchase subsidized health insurance on the online marketplace created by the ACA.
