Announcement for Public Comment on the OMH SED Waiver Renewal

Pursuant to 42 CFR 441.304(f), NYS Office of Mental Health hereby gives notice in order to obtain public comment on the OMH HCBS Wavier application for renewal to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS). The application was submitted to CMS in September 2013. The OMH HCBS Waiver has been in operation since 1996, serving children with serious emotional disturbance (SED) and their families.

Under the application, there are a number of changes and additions to the OMH HCBS Waiver. The changes include:

(1) The age at enrollment will be extended to include young people ages 18-21. OMH is requesting to extend the waiver enrollment age up to the 21st birthday. The process to include this new population will be gradual. The first year of the renewal application, OMH will develop guidance for all stakeholders impacted by the inclusion of transitional age youth (TAY). In addition to developing guidance, resources will be reviewed and assessed to ensure effective service provision for TAY. After the first year of the renewal application, participants will be able to enroll into the waiver program up to their 21st birthday. This change is timely considering the changes to managed care. An extension of the enrollment age will help in the continuity of services as youth transition from children to adult services.

(2) There are three new HCBS Waivers services included in the application:

a) Prevocational Services - this service is individually designed to prepare and assist a waiver participant, age 14 or older, in acquiring and maintaining basic work and work-related skills necessary to acquire and retain competitive work in an integrated setting. Prevocational services cannot be provided to a waiver participant under the OMH Waiver if the services are otherwise available to the individual through a local educational agency, under the provisions of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) or vocational rehabilitation services through a program funded under section 110 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973.

b) Supported Employment - this service is individually designed to prepare and support a waiver participant, age 14 or older, to engage in paid work. These services are targeted to participants for whom employment without support at or above the minimum wage is unlikely. Prevocational services cannot be provided to a waiver participant under the OMH Waiver if the services are otherwise available to the individual through a local educational agency, under the provisions of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) or vocational rehabilitation services through a program funded under section 110 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973.

c) Youth Peer Advocate - this service offers positive youth development-centered services for waiver participants with a resiliency/recovery focus. It is designed to support Waiver participants in the restoration and expansion of the skills and strategies necessary to move forward in meeting their goals and to support them in their transition to adulthood.

The OMH HCBS Wavier application for renewal to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) can be found at the following link: http://www.omh.ny.gov/omhweb/guidance/hcbs/forms/hcbs_waiver_app.pdf

As noted, the OMH HCBS Wavier application was submitted to CMS in September of 2013. Since that time, OMH has been working with CMS to address areas in which OMH must comply with new regulations and/or guidance issued by CMS since the last application for approval of the HCBS Waiver. As a result of those discussions, some areas identified as requiring revisions in the application include, but are not limited to the following:

(1) Unbundling of the monthly ICC rates – ICC rates currently include payment for care coordination, intensive in-home services and crisis response services. The new unbundled rates will require separate provision and billing for each of the three services.

(2) Flex Funds - CMS has required that the Federal participation payment (FPP) in flex funds be removed effective 1/1/15. As a result, OMH removed FPP from flex funds and issued guidance regarding this change, which can be found at: http://www.omh.ny.gov/omhweb/guidance/hcbs/html/section_400_6.htm

(3) Conflict of Interest - As a result of the new HCBS Rule issued by CMS, the OMH HCBS Wavier must comply with Conflict of Interest (COI) regulations. This requires a separation of the entity providing care coordination services from the entity providing HCBS Wavier services. In order to comply with COI regulations, OMH developed a COI Transition Plan to outline how the OMH HCBS Waiver will prepare for and implement required COI changes. The Plan requires Individualized Care Coordination (ICC) Agencies complete a Local COI Plan. Implementation of the proposed plan as written is contingent upon CMS approval, and may be subject to change based on CMS guidance. The proposed OMH COI Transition Plan submitted to CMS can be found at: http://www.omh.ny.gov/omhweb/guidance/hcbs/forms/coi_transition_timeline.docx
