PART I
INTENT

NEW SECTION.  Sec. 101   (1) The legislature finds that the opportunity to implement medicaid expansion for adults with incomes below one hundred and thirty-three percent of the federal poverty level provides the nexus to streamline the medicaid program, improve the program efficiency, and maximize federal funding to save millions of dollars in the state budget while ensuring additional funding is available for the private health delivery system.
     (2) Certain parameters must be established as a condition to implement the medicaid expansion defined in the social security act section 1902(a)(10)(A)(i)(VIII) including, but not limited to, the following: Development of a budget circuit breaker, implementation of personal responsibility for enrollees through cost-sharing and through individual incentives, implementation of enhanced program performance expectations, and elimination of an array of separate medical programs. The health care authority is also directed to make program improvements that ensure enrollees a choice of health plans, monitor crowd-out of employer coverage, and report on opportunities to integrate behavioral health services with the medical program.

PART II
CIRCUIT BREAKER

NEW SECTION.  Sec. 201   A new section is added to chapter 74.09 RCW to read as follows:
     (1) The authority is authorized to implement the medicaid expansion defined in the social security act, section 1902(a)(10)(A)(i)(VIII), consistent with budget authorization provided in the omnibus appropriations act, as long as the federal medical assistance percentages defined in the social security act, section 1905(y), remain at the levels outlined in law. A circuit breaker is provided to ensure the state budget is not adversely impacted by the federal government.
     (2) If the federal medical assistance percentage for the expansion falls below ninety percent, the authority shall ensure that the state does not incur any additional costs above what would have been incurred had the federal authority remained at ninety percent. The director is authorized to make any necessary program adjustments to comply with this requirement, including adding or adjusting premiums, modifying benefits, or reducing optional programs.
     (3) To the extent a waiver is needed to accomplish this, the director shall promptly apply for such waiver. If a waiver is not approved, the expansion program shall be closed upon appropriate notification to the legislature and enrollees.

     (((5))) (6) The legislature finds that competition in the managed health care marketplace is enhanced, in the long term, by the existence of a large number of managed health care system options for medicaid clients. In a managed care delivery system, whose goal is to focus on prevention, primary care, and improved enrollee health status, continuity in care relationships is of substantial importance, and disruption to clients and health care providers should be minimized. To help ensure these goals are met, the following principles shall guide the authority in its healthy options managed health care purchasing efforts:
     (a) All managed health care systems should have an opportunity to contract with the authority to the extent that minimum contracting requirements defined by the authority are met, at payment rates that enable the authority to operate as far below appropriated spending levels as possible, consistent with the principles established in this section.
     (b) Managed health care systems should compete for the award of contracts and assignment of medicaid beneficiaries who do not voluntarily select a contracting system, based upon:
     (i) Demonstrated commitment to or experience in serving low-income populations;
     (ii) Quality of services provided to enrollees;
     (iii) Accessibility, including appropriate utilization, of services offered to enrollees;
     (iv) Demonstrated capability to perform contracted services, including ability to supply an adequate provider network;
     (v) Payment rates; and
     (vi) The ability to meet other specifically defined contract requirements established by the authority, including consideration of past and current performance and participation in other state or federal health programs as a contractor.
     (c) Consideration should be given to using multiple year contracting periods.
     (d) Quality, accessibility, and demonstrated commitment to serving low-income populations shall be given significant weight in the contracting, evaluation, and assignment process.
     (e) All contractors that are regulated health carriers must meet state minimum net worth requirements as defined in applicable state laws. The authority shall adopt rules establishing the minimum net worth requirements for contractors that are not regulated health carriers. This subsection does not limit the authority of the Washington state health care authority to take action under a contract upon finding that a contractor's financial status seriously jeopardizes the contractor's ability to meet its contract obligations.
     (f) Procedures for resolution of disputes between the authority and contract bidders or the authority and contracting carriers related to the award of, or failure to award, a managed care contract must be clearly set out in the procurement document.
     (((6))) (7) The authority may apply the principles set forth in subsection (((5))) (6) of this section to its managed health care purchasing efforts on behalf of clients receiving supplemental security income benefits to the extent appropriate.
     (((7))) (8) A managed health care system shall pay a nonparticipating provider that provides a service covered under this chapter to the system's enrollee no more than the lowest amount paid for that service under the managed health care system's contracts with similar providers in the state.
     (((8))) (9) For services covered under this chapter to medical assistance or medical care services enrollees and provided on or after August 24, 2011, nonparticipating providers must accept as payment in full the amount paid by the managed health care system under subsection (((7))) (8) of this section in addition to any deductible, coinsurance, or copayment that is due from the enrollee for the service provided. An enrollee is not liable to any nonparticipating provider for covered services, except for amounts due for any deductible, coinsurance, or copayment under the terms and conditions set forth in the managed health care system contract to provide services under this section.
     (((9))) (10) Pursuant to federal managed care access standards, 42 C.F.R. Sec. 438, managed health care systems must maintain a network of appropriate providers that is supported by written agreements sufficient to provide adequate access to all services covered under the contract with the ((department)) authority, including hospital-based physician services. The ((department)) authority will monitor and periodically report on the proportion of services provided by contracted providers and nonparticipating providers, by county, for each managed health care system to ensure that managed health care systems are meeting network adequacy requirements. No later than January 1st of each year, the ((department)) authority will review and report its findings to the appropriate policy and fiscal committees of the legislature for the preceding state fiscal year.
     (((10))) (11) Subsections (((7))) (8) through (((9))) (10) of this section expire July 1, 2016.
     (12) The authority must develop contract performance measures that demonstrate meaningful measurement of enrollee health status and wellness, efforts by the managed care plan to increase enrollee participation in meaningful activities including a wellness visit, and application of evidence-based practices. The performance measures shall assist the authority and the legislature in monitoring managed care plan accountability and monitoring for limited access to appropriate care or fraud.

NEW SECTION.  Sec. 305   A new section is added to chapter 74.09 RCW to read as follows:
     (1) The authority, in cooperation with the department, must complete a study on the integration of the behavioral health system into the medical purchasing. The medicaid expansion and the implementation of mental health parity in the medical benefits provide the natural opportunity to redesign the medical package and align the delivery systems to ensure enrollees can access the full scope of medical care, including mental health services and chemical dependency services, as part of their comprehensive medical package.
     (2) The integration of the behavioral health services may include contracting with the regional support networks as providers within the managed care contracts, or other community-based delivery strategies that ensure the full range of care is available to enrollees, while providing an accountable contract to monitor performance and manage costs efficiently and effectively.
     (3) The study must identify the pathway to integration with a focus on administrative efficiency, seamless delivery of care for enrollees, and critical connectivity with social support systems, crisis intervention systems, and criminal justice systems.
     (4) The study must be submitted to the governor and the legislature by October 1, 2014, and must be submitted with recommendations for the necessary statutory changes and the budget transition.
