California Advancing and Innovating Medi-Cal (CalAIM) Dashboard Update On August 9, DHCS posted an update to the public-facing CalAIM dashboards that promote transparency and demonstrate the impact, progress, and key opportunity areas of CalAIM. This update includes a new dental initiative dashboard that highlights CalAIM initiatives to improve oral health outcomes. It also refreshes data and enhances features in existing dashboards, including Behavioral Health, Community Supports, Enhanced Care Management, Incentive Payment Program, Integrated Care for Dual Eligible Members, Population Health Management, Providing Access and Transforming Health, and Bold Goals initiative. The dashboards will continue to be updated regularly and will expand to include additional quality measures, demographic data, and initiatives as more data become available. New Transitional Care Services Technical Assistance Resource On August 21, DHCS released a new technical assistance resource dedicated to ensuring successful transitional care services for Medi-Cal members with long-term services and supports (LTSS) needs. Under the California Advancing and​ Innovating Medi-Cal (CalAIM) Population Health Management initiative, Medi-Cal managed care plans are responsible for delivering transitional care services to ensure members are supported from the start of the discharge planning process through their transition, until they have been successfully connected to all needed services and supports. Given the variety and complexity of available services and supports for this population across the Medi-Cal program, DHCS developed this new resource to demonstrate how plans can best support their members with LTSS needs while undergoing transitions of care. Medi-Cal managed care plans have the flexibility to leverage different services and supports to meet each member’s unique circumstances. DHCS’ vision is that Medi-Cal members requiring LTSS can remain in the least restrictive setting that meets their preferences and needs and optimizes their quality of life. Transitions of care occur when a member transfers from one setting or location of care to another, like a discharge from a hospital to a skilled nursing facility (SNF) or from a SNF to a home or community-based setting. *For over 30 years, CompSpec, Inc., a leading eligibility and third party vendor has been providing a wide range of revenue cycle services to healthcare providers and their patients.
