The provider portal is a multi-payer tool that allows providers to enter quality metrics for
certain episodes and access their PAP reports
Details on the provider portal
Login to portal from payment
initiative website
▪ Accessible to all PAPs
– Login with existing username/ password
– New users follow enrollment process detailed online
▪ Key components of the portal are to provide a way for
providers to
– Enter additional quality metrics for select episodes
(Hip, Knee, CHF and ADHD with potential for other
episodes in the future)
– Access current and past performance reports for all
payers where designated the PAP
NOTE: Episode and health home model for adult DD population in development. Tools and reports still to be defined.

Start of episode
– For new patients, episode begins on date of treatment initiation
– For recurring patients, new episode starts on date of first treatment after
previous episode ends (e.g. office visit or Rx filled)
The episode will have a duration of 12 months
▪ PCP, psychiatrist or licensed clinical psychologist eligible to be the PAP
– For Version 1.0, RSPMI provider organization will be official PAP when listed as
billing provider, but reporting will be provided at performing provider level where
available
▪ If licensed clinical psychologist treats patient, a co-PAP is required and providers share
gain / risk sharing

Patient severity levels and
exclusions

▪ Two patient severity levels will be included
– Patients with positive response to medication management, requiring only
▪
1.
2.
medication and parent / teacher administered support
– Patients for whom response to medication management is inadequate and
therefore psychosocial interventions are medically indicated
Severity will be determined by a provider certification
4 – 5 year olds will continue to be paid fee-for-service in version 1.0 because of limited evidence-based treatment guidelines and consensus
Level II episodes will not be available in July due to lack of data from the provider portal. Level II episodes started on October 2012
ADHD algorithm summary (1/2)
Medicaid ADHD episode v1.0
Triggers
Level I subtype episodes are triggered by either two medical claims with a primary diagnosis of ADHD or a medical claim with a primary
diagnosis of ADHD as well as a pharmacy claim for medication used to treat ADHD. Level II subtype episodes are triggered by a completed
Severity Certification followed by either two medical claims with a primary diagnosis of ADHD or a medical claim with a primary diagnosis of
ADHD as well as a pharmacy claim for medication used to treat ADHD.
PAP
assignment
Determination of the Principal Accountable Provider (PAP) is based upon which provider is responsible for the largest number of claims within
the episode.
If the provider responsible for the largest number of claims is a physician or an RSPMI provider organization, that provider is designated the
PAP. In instances in which two providers are responsible for an equal number of claims within the episode, the provider whose claims
accounted for a greater proportion of total reimbursement will be designated PAP.
If the provider responsible for the largest number of claims is a licensed clinical psychologist operating outside of an RSPMI provider
organization, that provider is a co-PAP with the physician or RSPMI provider providing the next largest number of claims within the episode. In
instances in which two providers are responsible for an equal number of claims within the episode, the provider whose claims accounted for a
greater proportion of total reimbursement will be designated co-PAP.
Where there are co-PAPs for an episode, the positive or negative supplemental payments are divided equally between the co-PAPs.
Exclusions
Episodes meeting one or more of the following criteria will be excluded:
A. Duration of less than 4 months
B. Small number of medical and/or pharmacy claims during the episode
C. Beneficiaries with any behavioral health comorbid condition
D. Beneficiaries age 5 or younger and beneficiaries age 18 or older at the time of the initial claim
Episode time
window
The standard episode duration is a 12-month period beginning at the time of the first trigger claim. A Level I episode will conclude at the
initiation of a new Level II episode if a Severity Certification is completed during the 12-month period.
Claims
included
All claims with a primary diagnosis of ADHD as well as all medications indicated for ADHD or used in the treatment of ADHD.
Quality
measures
Quality measures “to pass”:
1. Percentage of episodes with completion of either Continuing Care or Quality Assessment certification – must meet minimum threshold of
90% of episodes
Quality measures “to track”:
1. In order to track and evaluate selected quality measures, providers are asked to complete a “Quality Assessment” certification (for
beneficiaries new to the provider) and a “Continuing Care” certification (for beneficiaries previously receiving services from the provider)
2. Percentage of episodes classified as Level II
3. Average number of physician visits/episode
4. Percentage of episodes with medication
5. Percentage of episodes certified as non-guideline concordant
6. Percentage of episodes certified as non-guideline concordant with no rationale
Adjustments
Total reimbursement attributable to the PAP for episodes with a duration of less than 12 months will be scaled linearly to determine a
reimbursement per 12-months for the purpose of calculating the PAP’s performance.

Historical performance: January 1, 2012 – December 31, 2012
DISCLAIMER: The information contained in these reports is intended solely for use in the administration of the Medicaid
program. The data in the reports is neither intended nor suitable for other uses, including the selection of a health care
provider. The figures in this report are preliminary and are subject to revision. For more information, please visit

Dear Medicaid provider,
This is an update on the Arkansas Health Care Payment Improvement Initiative (APII) – a payment system developed with input from hundreds of
health care providers, patients and family members. Our goal is to support and reward providers who consistently deliver high-quality,
coordinated, and cost-effective care.
As a reminder, a core component of this multi-payer initiative is episodes of care. An episode is the collection of care provided to treat a
particular condition over a given length of time. Since July of 2012, Arkansas Medicaid has introduced new episodes, including Upper Respiratory
Infection (URI), Perinatal (colloquially, called “pregnancy”), Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), and more. To see the most up to date
list of episodes visit the APII website at www.paymentinitiative.org.
For each episode, the provider that holds the main responsibility for ensuring that care is delivered at appropriate cost and quality will be
designated as the Principal Accountable Provider (PAPs). For some episodes in the period covered in the attached report, you were identified as
the PAP. After appropriate risk-adjustments and exclusions, your average quality and cost was compared with previously announced thresholds.
This determines any potential sharing of savings or excess cost indicated in the report. Note that all information described throughout your report
is based on claims already submitted and all providers should continue to submit and receive reimbursement for claims as they do today.
This report contains episodes currently in the ‘preparatory phase’ and so the data and analyses for these reports are historical only (i.e. they are
not data from the time period that you will be measured against). To see “performance” reports (i.e., containing episodes eligible for gain or risk
sharing) for episodes launched earlier, log onto the provider portal at www.paymentinitiative.org to download a separate report.
To aid you in your role as a PAP for future episodes, we have been working hard with providers and other payers to design a set of reports that
give you detailed data about the quality and cost of your care as well as how this compares with previously announced thresholds and the range
of performance of other providers. As each payer will send a report covering their patients, you may receive similar reports from Arkansas Blue
Cross Blue Shield and / or QualChoice.
We encourage you to log onto the provider portal to access your current and previous ‘preparatory period’ and ‘performance period’ reports. As a
PAP for select episodes, you should begin using this portal to enter selected quality metrics for each patient with an episode of care starting. To
see which episodes have quality metrics linked to gain sharing visit the APII website.
We have been working diligently to solicit feedback from the provider community and will continue in our efforts to respond to all questions,
comments and concerns raised in a timely and consistent manner. For answers to frequently asked questions regarding the initiative and
episodes, please refer to the payment initiative website (www.paymentinitiative.org) You can also call us at 1-866-322-4696 or locally at 501-3018311 with questions or email [email protected]. Additionally, be sure to check the website regularly for updates on upcoming informational WebEx
sessions, other resources, or to sign up for alerts.
