SUBPART A: GENERAL

 

Section 630.10  Legislative Base

 

a)         Federal

            Legislative provisions for health services for mothers and children were initiated with Title V of the Social Security Act in 1935 (42 U.S.C. 701 et seq.) through formula grants to States for maternal and child health services.  Over the next 50 years Title V has been broadened and expanded in response to changing need.  The most recent and extensive revision to Title V came through the Maternal and Child Health (MCH) Services Block Grant Act of 1981 (PL 97-35; Sec. 2191 et seq.).  The MCH Block Grant Act virtually rewrote Title V to provide federal funds to states through a block grant arrangement so that each State could allocate resources based upon its individual needs and circumstances.  In addition to the Maternal and Child Health and Crippled Children's Service (CCS) components, previous federal categorical grant programs for Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS), Lead Screening, Adolescent Pregnancy, Genetics, Hemophilia and Supplemental Security Income − Disabled Children's Program (SSI-DCP) were folded into the MCH Block.  Each State is to determine the types of activities and the level of support for each type of project that would be included in its State MCH Program.

 

b)         State

 

1)         On July 12, 1877, the Illinois Department of Public Health was established to regulate the practice of medicine and to promote sanitary and hygienic activities.  In 1919 the Division of Child Hygiene and Public Health Nursing was created to address the health needs of mothers and children following a terrible epidemic of infantile paralysis (polio) which struck the State in 1916 and 1917.

 

2)         Since that time a wide array of state health department programs were developed by this Division and its various successor units.  After the enactment of Title V legislation, the Division became the designated maternal and child health unit of the Department.

 

3)         The Division of Family Health carries responsibility for implementing and maintaining Federal Title V programs as well as the following program areas mandated by state legislation:  

 

A)        Developmental Disability Prevention Act [410 ILCS 250]

 

B)        Newborn Metabolic Screening Act [410 ILCS 240]

 

C)        Division 3.3 of the Counties Code [55 ILCS 5]

 

D)        Lead Poisoning Prevention Act [410 ILCS 45]

 

E)        Illinois Family Case Management Act [410 ILCS 212]

 

F)         The Problem Pregnancy Health Services and Care Act [410 ILCS 230]

 

G)        Prenatal and Newborn Care Act [410 ILCS 225]

 

(Source:  Amended at 14 Ill. Reg. 11219, effective July 1, 1990)

 

Section 630.20  Administration

 

a)         General Provisions

 

1)         Planning, programming and budgeting for Maternal and Child Health (MCH) programs are the responsibility of the Illinois Department of Public Health.  The Department will develop each year an MCH Program Plan for Illinois which will assess current needs within the State and provide goals and objectives for improving the health of mothers and children, and for reducing infant mortality. The Department will provide to the University of Illinois, Division of Specialized Care for Children at least the amount of federal Maternal and Child Health Services Block Grant funds required by Title V of the Social Security Act (42 USC 705(a)(3)(B)) for services for children with special health care needs.  These services are defined in Title V of the Social Security Act (42 USC 701(a)(1)(D) et seq.) and are further defined in State law at 110 ILCS 345 and 110 ILCS 305 and in 89 Ill. Adm. Code 1200.  The funds provided to the University of Illinois, Division of Specialized Care for Children for this purpose are not subject to the other requirements in this Part.

 

2)         Giving highest priority to those areas in Illinois having high concentrations of low-income families, medically underserved areas, and those areas with high infant mortality and teenage pregnancies, the Department shall use the remaining percentage of the total MCH Services Block Grant funds for MCH Projects consistent with the intent of Title V and to provide Department operational funds which are supportive of the above projects.

 

3)         Projects shall be administered either directly by the Department, or through grants or contracts to health agencies of local political jurisdictions or private nonprofit agencies.  All applicant agencies shall be subject to the planning, promotion, and coordination of such services by the Department.

 

4)         Each project shall operate according to a plan written in accordance with State guidelines contained in this Part that are consistent with Title V and its regulations.  In addition, projects funded for Regionalized Perinatal Care, Lead Poisoning, Newborn Screening, Problem Pregnancy, or Sudden Infant Death Syndrome activities must meet the requirements of State statutes and their applicable State rules and regulations.

 

b)         Review Process

 

1)         Priorities for Ranking

 

A)        Priority shall be given to project applications for areas with concentrations of low income families.  A low income family is defined as being either urban or rural, with an annual income below the nonfarm income official poverty level as defined by the Office of Management and Budget and revised annually in accordance with Section 624 of the Economic Opportunity Act of 1964.  An area of concentration of low income is defined as a geographic area in which data are available indicating that a minimum of 20% of families or at least 1,000 individuals within its boundaries have an income less than the poverty level as described above.  Priority will be given to those geographic areas in proportion to the extent to which the standard is exceeded.  Applicants shall be required to document the socioeconomic factors within the geographic area proposed for the project.

 

B)        Priority for placement of projects shall also be given to areas that demonstrate a need for health services because of service scarcity or inaccessibility, and areas determined to have a need for such services as documented in the Illinois MCH Program Plan, revised annually.  Areas demonstrating a reasonable probability of success based upon availability of facilities and personnel or the potential for developing such resources shall also be given priority.

 

C)        Reapplications for continued funding will receive priority consideration in two succeeding years based on appropriation of funds by the General Assembly and performance showing progress toward stated goals. Funding for subsequent reapplications will be based upon the priorities in subsections (b)(1)(A) and (b)(1)(B) of this Section and past performance.

 

2)         Processing of Applications

 

A)        Applications shall be submitted no later than the due date indicated in the Request for Proposal (RFP) which shall be approximately ten weeks from the date of the request. All exceptions must be requested and approved in writing.

 

B)        Staff of the Department shall review the applications for completeness and request any needed additional information from the applicant.

 

C)        An evaluation committee appointed by the Chief of the Division of Family Health shall review all applications based on compliance with this Part. Documentation of the review process shall be a summary of ratings for all proposals reviewed. The review shall include as a minimum the items identified in the MCH Grant Proposal Review Form. Such items include but are not limited to linkages with other community resources, parental involvement in the program, matching fund requirements, and special budgetary justification.

 

D)        Upon consideration of the recommendations of the evaluation committee, the Chief of the Division of Family Health shall recommend a funding level for approved applications to the Director of the Illinois Department of Public Health.  The Illinois Department of Public Health may award funds for amounts less than requested in the grant application.

 

E)        The Department will communicate final decisions to each applicant.

 

c)         Funding.  The preferred method of payment to Maternal and Child Health projects is by reimbursement of expenditures.  In those instances in which a grantee does not have at least two months operating funds to implement the project, a cash advance may be requested.  The request must be in writing and signed by the agency director. Repayment and reconciliation methodolgy will be set forth in writing by the Chief, Division of Family Health, as a part of the agreement.

 

d)         Reimbursement

 

1)         Periodic requests for reimbursement of allowable expenses incurred in the operation of the project and as specified in the approved budget are to be prepared and submitted to the Office of Community Health Fiscal Unit.  After review by appropriate fiscal and MCH staff, and approval by the MCH Program personnel, reimbursement requests will be processed for payment.  Payment usually can be expected from five to six weeks after receipt of the reimbursement request by the Department.  If unallowable expense items are included in the reimbursement request, they will be deducted, the project director will be notified, and only the allowable portion of the request will be reimbursed.  In order to expedite cash flow, project directors should inquire about the appropriateness of questionable expenses prior to making the expenditure.

 

2)         Complete reimbursement request shall consist of a Reimbursement Certification Form which can be expanded to multiple pages where necessary.  Billings should be prepared in accordance with the following instructions:

 

A)        Frequency of submission:  Projects with funding in excess of $50,000 shall submit billings monthly.  All others should submit billings at least quarterly. Any project may submit monthly billings. Quarters for the MCH grant periods are:

 

	State Fiscal Year	Federal Fiscal Year
July 1-September 30	1st	4th
Oct. 1-December 31	2nd	1st
Jan. 1-March 31	3rd	2nd
April 1-June 30	4th	3rd

 

B)        Deadlines for submission:  Billings must be submitted within 30 days after the end of the reporting period.  For example, billing for the month of July shall be submitted not later than the end of August, billing for the quarter ending in March shall be submitted not later than the end of April. At the end of the grant period, however, projects will have 45 days in which to submit the final billing.

 

C)        Grouping of expenditures:  Billing must be organized by the budget categories and line items of the approved project budget.  A total for each budget category shall be shown.

 

D)        Voucher or check number:  Every expenditure (goods or services already paid for by the grantee) must be identified by a voucher number or check number.  This is the key to maintaining a clearly defined audit trail.  Each item reimbursed by the Division of Family Health or voluntarily shown as supporting expenditures must be based on an expenditure traceable through the project's internal record system. Invoices, bills, purchase orders, etc., shall be attached or cross referenced on the grantee's voucher or check stub and kept on file for 3 years beyond the end of the grant period.  These are not to be submitted with project billings.

 

E)        Date of voucher or check:  Expenditures must be documented by showing the date of issue of the voucher or check.

 

F)         Expenditures outside of report period:  It is expected that reimbursement requests will be for goods and services received in the reporting period.  Bills submitted to the project by providers, suppliers, etc., too late for inclusion may be submitted with the subsequent billing request.

 

G)        Payee:  Clearly identify (by name and address) the organization or individual to whom payment was made.

 

H)        Purpose of expenditure:  The purpose of the expenditure must be clearly indicated so that the Division of Family Health staff may determine whether it is acceptable for reimbursement or as matching.  Acceptability will be based on the terms of the agreement and this Part.  For periodic charges, e.g., salaries, fringe benefits, travel, rent, utilities, etc., also show the time period covered.

 

I)         Patient confidentiality:  Patients' names shall not appear anywhere on the billing.  Where patient references are necessary to maintain an audit trail, patient numbers or other means of identification shall be used.

 

J)         Expenditure:  Expenditures shall be completed in accord with Instructions for Completion of the Reimbursement Certification Form (see Appendix B of this Part).

 

i)          Subtotal expenditures in both columns by budget category, and show a grand total at the end of the billing.

 

ii)         Individual expenditures reported may be entirely reimbursable, entirely paid from other resources, or a combination of the two.  For example, a nurse's salary may be paid entirely by grant funds, entirely by local project funds, or partly from each source.

 

iii)        In projects showing supporting expenditures, they are to be reported with each reimbursement request and not accumulated.

 

K)        Signature:  The project director or an authorized agent must sign the billing form before submission.  The individual signing the form is responsible for its accuracy. Authorized signatures must be on file with the Department.

 

L)        Number of copies:  Submit four legible copies of the Reimbursement Certification Form. Additional pages may be duplicated as needed.

 

e)         Monitoring.  At least annually, appropriate professional health personnel of the Division and its consultants shall review each project for appropriateness of services and quality of care furnished to recipients in accordance with the project plan.

 

f)         Auditing

 

1)         The Grantee will maintain complete records of all services, receipts and disbursements relative to the grant agreement and agrees to make all such records available to the Department and its agents for audit in accordance with applicable requirements.

 

A)        Local Governments:  Audits shall be conducted in accordance with the Single Audit Act of 1984 (31 USC 7501 et seq.) and OMB Circular A-128 "Audits of State and Local Governments".  All records related to the grant agreement shall be retained and available during normal business hours for three years following termination of the grant agreement or for such time as may be provided in applicable State and federal statutes and administrative rules, whichever time is longer.  The Grantee shall maintain all records that are subject to an active or announced audit until such audit is completed and all outstanding audit issues have been resolved.

 

B)        Nonprofit Organizations:  Audits shall be conducted in accordance with OMB Circular A-133 "Audits of Institutions of Higher Education and Other Nonprofit Organizations".  All records related to the grant agreement shall be retained and available during normal business hours for three years following termination of the grant agreement or for such time as may be provided in applicable State and federal statutes and administrative rules, whichever is longer.  The Grantee shall maintain all records that are subject to an active or announced audit until such audit is completed and all outstanding audit issues have been resolved.

 

2)         Organizations falling under the audit provisions cited above must submit a copy of the audit report to the Illinois Department of Public Health within one month after the receipt of the final report.  For any organizations not specifically covered under the above-stated audit requirements or, if after review of the report, the Illinois Department of Public Health requires additional information, the Department reserves the right to perform such an audit in accordance with the Fiscal Control and Internal Auditing Act [30 ILCS 10].

Case management involves individualized assessment of needs, planning of services, referral, monitoring and advocacy to assist a client in gaining access to appropriate services and closure when services are no longer required. Case management is an active and collaborative process involving a single qualified case manager, the client, the client's family, the providers and the community. This includes close coordination and involvement with all service providers in the management plan for that client and/or family including assuring that the client receives the services.

 

"Counseling" means the provision of advice, guidance or instruction on the part of a knowledgeable person with the goal of meeting specific needs of individuals or groups.

 

"Equipment" means any nonexpendable item with a unit cost equivalent to or greater than the State of Illinois' definition for equipment, State Finance Act [30 ILCS 105].

 

"Follow-up" means the process by which further services are rendered and/or the process by which an assessment is made concerning the outcome of an intervention plan of care or referral for further services.

"Postpartum" means the period from the birth of the infant or termination of pregnancy and the succeeding 42 days.

 

"Prenatal" means the period of time existing from conception of the fetus until the birth of infant or termination of the pregnancy.

A)        In accordance with recommendations of the American Medical Association, the American Congress of Obstetricians and Gynecologists and the American Academy of Pediatrics, services for non-high risk as well as high risk mothers and infants shall be developed as a part of overall regional planning.  Such regional coordination may involve the crossing of state boundaries.

 

B)        When the provision of services or programs requires an advisory group composed of community representatives whose function is to make recommendations for awarding funds to subcontractors, membership shall be restricted to persons not having a fiduciary interest in, not serving in a policy making position for, and not working as a staff member for any applicant agency.

 

14)       Supporting data and additional information:  Additional relevant information to support the proposal shall be provided, including working letters of agreement from all participating agencies, pertinent letters of support and evidence of nonprofit status.

 

d)         Budget:

 

1)         All applicants shall submit a detailed budget proposal for each project period as part of the project application for new applicants or with the progress report and any proposed plan revision for continuing projects.  The budget proposal shall be submitted on forms provided by the Division of Family Health, and shall include all information and signatures required in the instructions.

 

2)         The budget is divided into major categories of cost.  Not all categories will apply to all projects.  In preparing its budget, each project should use only those budget categories applicable to its own operations.

 

3)         Budget categories are further divided into line items which specify the amounts for each item of expense allowable under the budget.

 

4)         In some agreements between the State Agency and the delegate agency as subgrantee, local funds supplement the project effort.  The local share may be in the form of cash contributions, or may be the "in kind" valuation placed upon goods, services, physical facilities, etc., directly benefiting or specifically identifiable to the grant supported activity.

 

e)         General Requirements and Assurances.  Each project grant application shall contain assurances in writing that:

 

1)         The grantee shall implement the program within three months of the date when authorization to proceed is given.  Funds for programs not implemented within three months shall revert to unawarded status, unless a written extension request is approved.

 

2)         For any program developed under the stated alternative method of implementation (See subsection (a)(3) of this Section), the grantee agency shall retain sole responsibility for program implementation and fiscal accountability.

 

3)         The grantee agency shall allow periodic on-site review of its programs and records including those of its subcontractors by the staff of the Division of Family Health or their authorized representatives.

 

4)         The grantee agency shall submit quarterly performance reports to the Division of Family Health within thirty (30) days of the end of each quarters. The final annual report is due within 45 days of the end of the project period. All other specified reports shall be submitted within identified time lines.

 

5)         Forms used to authorize services, for which payments are made from project funds shall be maintained by the grantee.  A form for each patient shall show the services authorized, date of authorization, and the amounts expended for the specific types of services authorized, date of authorization, and the amounts expended for the specific types of services approved.

 

6)         Payment for high risk inpatient hospital services perinatal centers designated in accordance with the Regionalized Perinatal Health Care Code (77 Ill. Adm. Code 640) shall be based on the lesser of reasonable cost of services (See Section 630.190) or the customary charges to the general public for such services.

 

7)         Grantees shall not amend the application for which the grant was approved without prior written permission from the Department.

 

8)         The applicant shall maintain adequate records to show the disposition of all grant funds expended for activities for which the grant was made. All records shall be retained for three years after the close of the fiscal year in which the grant was made and shall be made available for audit purposes upon request of the Department.

 

9)         Attention is called to the requirements of Title VI, Civil Rights Act of 1964, 42 U.S.C. 2000e et seq., the Age Discrimination Act of 1975, the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 which provide that no person in the United States shall, on the grounds of age, handicap, race, color, creed, religion, sex or national origin be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subject to discrimination under any program or activity receiving federal financial assistance.  All services provided by the applicant shall be made available without discrimination on the grounds of age, handicap, race, creed, religion, sex, marital status, national origin or duration of residence.  Professional liability insurance must be in place and on file for all personnel providing service.

 

10)       Grantees shall use grant funds in addition to, rather than in lieu of, existing local or other State or federal funds currently available for the purposes approved in the grant award.  Existing funds which are currently available are those which have been available at least during the budget period immediately preceding the period for which funds are being requested and will also be available during the period  for which the funds are being requested.

 

11)       Failure by the grantee to comply with these requirements, site review recommendations or grant conditions will be cause for discontinuance of funds or termination of the grant.

 

f)         Continuation Application:

 

1)         For continuation applications, an annual progress report, budget and an abbreviated narrative describing the service model for the upcoming fiscal year must be submitted.  Any proposed revisions to the project plan must be submitted in detail.  This must include projected caseloads, and updated objectives on prescribed forms.

 

2)         The annual progress report shall describe the accomplishments since the last annual progress report, and may include charts, graphs or tables in addition to the narrative report.  Progress shall be related to stated objectives.  Proposed revisions to the project plan shall be submitted as separate documents revising specific sections of the approved narrative.

 

g)         Revisions

 

1)         Any changes in the project narrative, objectives, caseload or budget must be submitted in writing to the Illinois Department of Public Health prior to implementing the change. All proposed changes must include a description of the change and justification for the change.  Budget revisions should specify the amount of dollars involved and the type of change.  When budgetary changes are requested revised budget pages shall be submitted.  Telephone requests for emergency changes will be considered individually.  Approved telephone requests must be followed by written documentation as described above prior to reimbursement.

 

2)         Grantees shall be notified in writing when revisions are required by the Division in any matter related to the administration of the projects including but not limited to changes in funding levels.

 

3)         There are three possible types of budget revisions:

 

A)        Adjustment − The total amount of the budget remains the same.  Funds are shifted within the budget between line items and/or budget categories.

 

B)        Supplement − The total amount of the budget is increased by adding funds to specific budget categories and line items, or by creating new line items.

 

C)        Reduction − The total amount of the budget is decreased by reducing or eliminating line items or budget categories.

 

h)         Termination

 

1)         All grants shall terminate on the dates specified in the contracts and shall not be extended or renewed except as provided for in Section 630.20(b)(1)(C).

 

2)         A grantee who has substantially failed to comply with this Part and the grant award as documented at site reviews for two consecutive years will have funding terminated. Substantial failure for the purpose of this Section shall mean failure to meet requirements other than a variance from the strict and literal performance which result in unimportant omissions or defects given the particular circumstances involved.  The grant contract may be terminated by either party upon a 30 day written notice.  Unallocated monies will be used to expand existing projects or to fund new projects in underserved areas.

 

3)         The Director, after notice and opportunity for hearing to the grantee, may suspend or terminate the grant in any case in which he/she finds that there is or has been a violation of this Part.

 

4)         Such notice shall be effected by registered mail, by certified mail, or by personal service setting forth the particular reasons for the proposed action and fixing a date, not less than 15 days from the date of such mailing or service, at which time the delegate shall be given an opportunity for a hearing. Such hearing shall be conducted by the Director or by an employee of the Department designated in writing by the Director as Hearing Officer to conduct the hearing. On the basis of any such hearing, or upon default of the delegate agency, the Director shall make a determination specifying the findings and conclusions. A copy of such determination shall be sent by registered mail, certified mail, or served personally upon the grantee. The decision shall become final 35 days after it is so mailed or served, unless the grantee, within such 35 day period, petitions for review pursuant to this Section.

 

5)         The procedure governing hearings authorized by this Part shall be in accordance with Rules of Practice and Procedure in Administrative Hearings (77 Ill. Adm. Code 100).

 

6)         If, however, the Department finds that:

 

A)        The public interest, including financial interest, health safety, or welfare requires emergency action (emergency action would result from such instances as, but not limited to, bankruptcy and/or insolvency, fraud, and financial instability), and;

 

B)        Unless the Department receives documentation that the grantee's assets are sufficient to meet the grantee's liabilities in the form of a certified financial statement, and;

 

C)        If the Director incorporates a finding to that effect in the order; then

 

D)        Summary suspension of the grant shall be ordered pending proceedings for termination or referral to State or federal authorities, which proceedings shall be instituted within one week of summary suspension and promptly determined.

 

7)         In no case where summary suspension has been ordered shall reimbursement be made to the delegate agency for costs incurred or funds expended after the date of summary suspension unless, after conclusion of the proceedings, such reimbursement or payment is ordered by the hearing officer, administrative law judge or court of competent jurisdiction.

2)         Exception process:  The Department will use the following procedures when grantees' staff do not meet the qualifications listed above or when they are unable to recruit qualified staff.

 

A)        Individuals employed by a grantee, at the time of the adoption of this Section, to conduct case management activities as described in this Section will be deemed qualified.

 

B)        Grantees that can demonstrate an inability to recruit individuals who meet the qualifications listed above may request an exception.  The Department or its designee will grant an exception if it is requested in writing and documents:  the grantee's efforts to recruit qualified staff; the education and experience that the grantee proposes to require in filling the position; a justification of why the proposed education and experience are functionally equivalent to the above requirements; and a plan for bringing the individual into compliance within a two-year period.

 

3)         Case Manager Assistants.  Paraprofessionals and lay workers may be used to perform some case management functions under the supervision of the case manager.  These functions may include intake, follow-up with participants or providers to ensure that participants are accessing needed services, and provision of support and assistance that participants may require to access services.  The functions of assessment, service planning, referral, and reassessment of participant's needs are limited to the case manager. Paraprofessionals and lay workers may also be used to conduct outreach activities.

 

d)         Clinical record.  The participant's clinical record shall contain, but is not limited to:

 

1)         identifying information including name, case number, address and telephone number, sex, race, hispanic origin, date of birth, marital status, and date of initial contact and initiation of case management services;

 

2)         documentation of the participant's eligibility status for all payment mechanisms for medical care;

 

3)         assessment and reassessment reports;

 

4)         an individual care plan, progress reviews and notes;

 

5)         documentation of missed appointments and attempts to follow up on missed appointments of those participants the case manager or physician have identified as noncompliant;

 

6)         documentation of each service rendered by the case manager as described in subsection (e);

 

7)         documentation of participant's authorization of the case manager to release information to providers of necessary services; and

 

8)         documentation of the participant's primary care provider.

 

e)         Case Management Process

 

1)         Role of the Case Manager.  One goal of the case management process is to help participants or their caregivers learn to accept responsibility for their own lifestyle and promote their own health.  Another major goal of case management is to enhance the participants' or their caregivers' strengths and resources by teaching them skills for seeking out and using individuals and agencies in the community who are available to meet a wide variety of human needs.  At first, the case manager will likely be responsible for most of these activities.  As time passes, the participants or their caregivers will ideally participate more actively, while the case manager adopts a more supportive role.  Successful case management relies on the education of participants, facilitation of access to services, coordination with service agencies, follow-up on services delivered, assistance with scheduling, and case management assessments to determine medical, psychosocial and environmental risks. The case management process includes the following activities:

 

A)        assessment of needed health and social services;

 

B)        development of an Individual Care Plan consistent with subsection (e)(2);

 

C)        referral of participants to appropriate providers within the community for services identified in the Individual Care Plan;

 

D)        on-going follow-up with participants or service providers to determine whether participants have accessed services.  Follow-up should be continuous from initial identification through case closure;

 

E)        periodic reassessment of participants' needs, as described in these rules;

 

F)         advocacy to assist participants in accessing services;

 

G)        procedures for terminating the professional relationship between the participant and the case manager when the participant no longer requires case management;

 

H)        case management activities should be provided during a face-to-face contact with the program participant whenever possible; and

 

I)         case managers may also perform outreach activities on a less than full-time basis.

 

2)         Individual Care Plan.  The case manager should utilize the recommendations from the primary care provider, other service providers as appropriate, and from the initial social and nutritional assessments to develop an individual care plan with each participant.  Development of the individualized care plan may include discussions with other providers identified in the plan (provided that the participant has consented in writing to such discussions); and telephone calls to, face-to-face meetings with, or home visits to the participant.  The individual care plan or clinical record must include, but is not limited to, the following:

 

A)        verification of eligibility status for all payment mechanisms for medical services;

 

B)        referral, if necessary, for physician services;

 

C)        a list of all of the service providers involved with the participant;

 

D)        a list of the agencies to which the participant will be referred;

 

E)        a problem list and plans for problem resolution;

 

F)         an assessment or assessments to determine the need for health, mental health, social, educational, vocational, substance abuse treatment, child care, transportation or other services, including:

 

i)          a nutritional assessment (refer to Sections 630.30(b)(3)(F), 630.40(b)(1)(E), 630.50(a)(1)(F), and 630.60(a)(1)(F));

 

ii)         a psychosocial assessment, including composition of family, evidence of parent-child bonding, parenting skills and education of parents;

 

iii)        support systems available to parents or caregivers;

 

iv)        social and health services currently used by the family, including sources of primary care and emergency care;

 

v)         environmental assessment, including at least the condition of housing, availability of utilities (water, heat, light, cooking, refrigeration, sanitation, etc.) and risks of unintentional injury; and

 

vi)        developmental assessment of infants and children.

 

3)         Assignment of Participants.  Each participating family should be assigned to one case manager.

 

4)         Frequency.  The case management agency must have face-to-face contact with the participating family as specified below and have as much additional contact as necessary to facilitate the family's access to services.  Each contact must include the activities described in Section 630.220(e)(6).  Whenever possible, the face-to-face contact should be made by the assigned case manager.  In determining the appropriate frequency of face-to-face contacts with a family, priority must be given to the requirements for infants, then for pregnant women, then for all other family members.

 

A)        For families with one or more infants, face-to-face contact at approximately two, four, six and twelve months of age.

 

B)        For families with a pregnant woman, face-to-face contact once each trimester of pregnancy.

 

C)        For families with one or more children over age one year, but without an infant or pregnant woman, face-to-face contact once each twelve months of program participation.

 

5)         Referral and Advocacy.  The case manager shall assure that any necessary referrals are made and advocate as necessary on the participant's behalf for services identified in the individual care plan.

 

6)         Follow-up and Reassessment.  Subsequent case management activities shall include, as necessary, a review of the implementation of the individualized care plan to date.  The case manager should update the individual care plan using any additional information received from the physician or other service providers.

 

7)         High-Risk Case Management

 

A)        Content.  High-risk case management includes all the service components of case management, including a review of the implementation of the individualized care plan to date, emphasizing compliance with recommendations regarding the high-risk condition(s).  High-risk case management must be performed by the case manager.

 

B)        Frequency.  High-risk case management may be provided as frequently as needed.

 

C)        Eligibility.  High-risk case management may be provided when the participant is determined to be at high risk for medical complications by the primary care provider or by risk assessment.  High-risk case management of infants and children may be provided by the case management agency when the infant or child has been identified through the Adverse Pregnancy Outcome Reporting System (APORS) (See 410 ILCS 525/3) and 77 Ill. Adm. Code 840.210), when the infant has been diagnosed with a serious medical condition after newborn discharge, when maternal alcohol or drug addiction has been diagnosed or when child abuse or neglect has been indicated based on investigation by the Illinois Department of Children and Family Services.  Similarly, APORS infants or children whose conditions are minor and whose environments are stable may be transferred into the low-risk follow-up regime.

 

8)         Home Visits.  Case management activities shall be conducted in the participant's home as presented below.

 

A)        At least once prenatally.

 

B)        At least once during infancy, if a home visit was not completed during pregnancy.

 

C)        At least once every 24 months of program participation to families that do not include a pregnant woman or an infant.

 

9)         Case Closure:

 

A)        Criteria for closure.  Unless other family members are receiving case management, case closure may occur when:

 

i)          the participant no longer meets age or income eligibility criteria for case management funding;

 

ii)         the participant moves out of the grantee's service area;

 

iii)        the participant dies; or

 

iv)        the case management agency is no longer able to reach the participant.

 

B)        Content.  At the time of closure, the case manager should ensure that the following activities have been completed, as appropriate for the participant's circumstances:

 

i)          the participant has located a medical care provider for continued care for himself or herself and his or her children;

 

ii)         the participant is referred for family planning services;

 

iii)        the participant is referred for postpartum WIC or Commodity Supplemental Food Program (CSFP) certification;

 

iv)        the participant's children are referred for WIC or CSFP certification;

 

v)         the children have begun or been referred for immunizations (if these are not contraindicated or declined by the parent);

 

vi)        the participant has completed application for Medicaid for his or her children; and

 

vii)       the participant has been given information regarding child restraint seats.

 

C)        If the participant is moving to another area, the participant's case records may be transferred to the new case management agency if the participant's consent is obtained.

 

f)         Case Management Coordination.  Department grantees providing case management services should engage in activities (as described below) to coordinate with other agencies in the grantee's service area that provide case management services to the same types of persons as the grantee has agreed to serve.  These activities are intended to avoid duplication of case management services at the local level and ensure that each participant has only one lead case manager at any given time.

 

1)         The case management agency should ensure that every family enrolled in case management continues to utilize primary medical care, regardless of the lead case management agency working with the family.

 

2)         Case Management Coordination Agreements.  Grantees of the Department's Division of Family Health should enter into written agreements with other agencies with the same geographic service area (in whole or in part) and with comparable scope of case management activities regarding coordination of case management services.  These agreements must at least specify each grantee's target group for services; referral procedures; procedures to obtain informed consent for services and protection of participant's privacy; and procedures to determine the agency most appropriate to provide case management services.

 

3)         Determination of the Agency or Program most appropriate for the delivery of case management services.  Following the assessments of a participant's service needs, the case manager, other involved service providers, and the participant (and the participant's parent(s) or legal guardian(s), depending upon the participant's ability to consent for services) should determine the one agency or program most appropriate to take a lead role in providing case management services if any of the criteria listed below are met.  Only those providers for which the participant has given written consent may participate in the determination of the most appropriate agency or program to provide case management.  The criteria requiring such a determination are:

 

A)        the participant's most important problem requires expertise for case management that the grantee's staff does not possess;

 

B)        the participant's most important problem requires expertise for case management that another agency's staff does possess;

 

C)        the participant's problems are so complex as to require the close collaboration of several agencies for successful case management; and

 

D)        the participant prefers to obtain case management services from another agency.

 

g)         Allowable Cost for Outreach and Case Management Activities.

 

1)         Federal financial participation in outreach and case management is provided through the Medicaid program for coordination of medical and medically-related services for the health and well-being of the participant.

 

2)         Allowable Costs for Outreach.  Costs incurred for outreach activities as defined in Section 630.70 are allowed.  However, health, general education, or other social service activities may not be included as outreach.

 

3)         Allowable Costs for Case Management.  Salary and other expenses for staff conducting outreach and case management activities must be supported by documentation, as described in subsection (h).  Expenses incurred for the provision of any other direct service (including patient teaching) by staff conducting outreach and case management activities must be excluded.  If program staff provide other direct services in addition to outreach and case management, the grantee's time and activity reporting system must distinguish between allowable and excluded costs.

 

4)         The agency must make its clinical and time reporting records available for inspection by authorized representatives of the Department, the Illinois Department of Public Aid and the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services.

 

h)         Time and Activity Data to be Collected.  The following time, activity and participant information must be recorded by each outreach worker, case manager and case manager assistant on his or her daily activities and the participants served.  Specific data entry codes for each item will be specified by the Department.  Each report must be signed by the outreach worker, case manager or case manager assistant making the report, and signed or stamped by the outreach worker's, case manager's or case manager assistant's supervisor.  A time study must be performed each quarter of the State fiscal year for at least one pay period or ten working days, whichever is longer.  The time study period for each quarter will be specified by the Department and communicated to the case management agency in writing.   During the remainder of each quarter of the State fiscal year, each case manager, case manager assistant or outreach worker must record and report only the information specified in subsection (h)(1), (h)(2), (h)(3), (h)(4), (h)(5)(A), (h)(5)(B), (h)(7), (h)(8), (h)(9), (h)(10), (h)(11) and (h)(12). This requirement applies to case management agencies that are serving clients who do not reside in the service area for the Medicaid Managed Care Demonstration program implemented by the Illinois Department of Public Aid under a waiver from the U.S. Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services.

 

1)         Identification of the agency conducting the outreach or case management activity.

 

2)         Identification of the staff person conducting the outreach or case management activity.

 

3)         The date on which the activity was conducted.

 

4)         The Medicaid Case Identification Number and the Medicaid Recipient Identification Number.  These numbers are assigned by the Illinois Department of Healthcare and Family Services.  These numbers must be recorded if the participant's medical care is being paid for through the Medicaid program.

 

5)         Activity.  This item describes the outreach worker's, case manager's or case manager assistant's activity.  At a minimum, categories must identify case management; outreach; administration of outreach and case management; accrued benefit time; and other direct services, as follows:

 

A)        intake interview, assessment or reassessment of participant's needs; development or revision of the Individual Care Plan; referral or advocacy for services; follow-up with the participant or the provider's case closure; and travel;

Section 630.APPENDIX C   Instructions for Completing Reimbursement Certification Form

 

		August 1987
IDPH – OFFICE OF HEALTH SERVICES
Instructions for Completing the Reimbursement Certification Form
Agency Name:	Fill in your agency's name, address and FEIN (Federal Employer's Identification Number or in the case of Local Health Departments, the Comptroller assigned County Identification Number) as it appears in the contract/grant agreement.
Program:	Fill in the name of the Department program for which you are requesting reimbursement.
Contract   #:	Fill in the contract number (located in the upper right hand corner of the executed contract/grant agreement).
Billing Period:	Fill in the period covered by the request. The period shown should include the earliest date goods/services were ordered through the latest date services were provided. This period will be used by Department staff to determine proper state, federal and/or project fiscal year. You must submit separate Reimbursement Certification Forms for different state, federal and/or project fiscal years. If you have questions, please consult with Department program or fiscal staff.
Date Submitted:	Fill in date Reimbursement Certification Form is completed or sent to IDPH.
Name/Vendor:	Enter the name of the employee, business or other payee to whom payment was made.
Title/Purpose:	For payroll, enter the title of the employee; for other items, briefly describe the goods or services purchased. (Please provide enough information so that program staff can determine appropriateness to program).




 

Period/Date: Incurred:	For payroll, enter the period covered; for other items, enter the date the goods or services were received. In the case of supplies, equipment and other specific deliverables, it is a good idea to also note the date the order was made. This will assist program/fiscal staff to determine the proper state and/or federal fiscal year to be charged. This is required for all supplies and equipment received in lapse periods (after the end of the state or federal fiscal year).
Page  –2–
Voucher/Check Number:	Enter the voucher or check number for the payment. This establishes the audit trail and is necessary to verify that payment has been made.
Gross Amount:	Enter the total amount of the check identified previously or for payrolls the gross pay for the employee.
Amount Claimed from IDPH:	Enter the amount applicable to the program for which this Reimbursement Certification Form applies and for which you are requesting reimbursement.
Agency Match/ WIC Admin.:	For those programs which require the agency to provide matching support of Department expenditures, enter the amount of agency supplied match in this column. In most cases this will be a part of the difference between the Gross Amount column and the Amount Claimed from IDPH.   For the WIC program, each agency must identify the allocation of expenditures to either WIC Administration or Nutrition Education.  Since there is no matching requirement for WIC, the last two columns are to be used to show this allocation.
To further assist Department Program/fiscal staff, please list reimbursements by line item and show a sub-total for each line item.   In many cases, multiple pages will be necessary. In order to save some paper/copying charges, both sides of the Reimbursement Certification Form may be used. Please show the TOTAL on the final page only.   After review and approval, the authorized agency official shall sign the certification (only the final page which shows the TOTAL needs to be signed).   Forward the original and three copies of the Reimbursement Certification Form to:   Illinois Department of Public Health Office of Health Services, Fiscal Operations Unit 535 West Jefferson, 2nd Floor Springfield, IL  62761   The Office of the State Comptroller no longer requires vendors to sign or otherwise certify to expenditures on the State of Illinois Invoice-Voucher, Form C-13; therefore, the Reimbursement Certification Form is all that is required to be submitted. The Department fiscal staff will complete the C-13 using information from your Reimbursement Certification Form.
