Dual Demonstration of Michigan
In January 2011, Michigan was selected by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) as one of fifteen states awarded funding to design and develop a person-centered health care delivery model that coordinates primary, acute, behavioral and long-term supports and services for Medicare-Medicaid enrollees.
The Michigan Department of Community Health (MDCH) released a Request For Proposal (RFP) to implement its integrated Dual Eligible Demonstration in August 2013, and the targeted implementation for the program is May 1, 2015.

Integrated Care Management
A proven integrated care management (ICM) model is used to address care gaps and foster health equity. This model incorporates a member-based decision support system that drives both communication and care-plan development through a multidisciplinary management approach. Programs are in place to assist with acute and chronic care needs, including:
12
• Diabetes • Heart Disease • Hypertension • Asthma • COPD • Sickle Cell Anemia • Depression
Navinet Care Gaps A pop-up alert occurs when checking member eligibility in NaviNet. These alerts indicate the member is at risk due to missing or overdue preventive services, or under-utilization or absence of disease specific controller medications. Care Management and Outreach Teams Comprised of plan medical directors, care managers (registered nurses and social workers), and skilled care connectors (for non-clinical issues), the teams collaborate with internal care managers and providers to identify and address members health needs. Members receive educational materials and if identified as high risk, are assigned to a Care Manager for one-on-one education and follow-up.
Integrated Care Management

Integrated Care Management
Utilization Management
• Inpatient, limited outpatient and out-of-network prior authorization requirements - we are sensitive to the interruption that prior authorization (PA) can cause in a provider’s workflow.
• Our goal is to ensure that enrollees and providers alike can easily understand and identify which services require PA. We will alert providers to changes in a timely manner via the plan website or individual outreach when necessary.
• Services requiring prior authorization may be submitted electronically via our provider portal.
• Discharge planning assistance. • Member education and coordination of care.
