Chapter 257 of the Acts of 2008 Regulates Pricing for the POS System • Chapter 257 places authority for determination of Purchase of Service reimbursement rates with the Secretary Of Health and Human Services under MGL 118 G. The Division of Health Care Finance and Policy provides staffing and support for the development of Chapter 257 pricing. • Chapter 257 requires that the following criteria be considered when setting and reviewing human service reimbursement rates: • Reasonable costs incurred by efficiently and economically operated providers • Reasonable costs to providers of any existing or new governmental mandate • Changes in costs associated with the delivery of services (e. g. inflation) • Substantial geographical differences in the costs of service delivery • Many current rates within the POS system may not reflect consideration of these factors. • Additional funding was not appropriated to finance any potential cost increases associated with the law. • Chapter 9 of the Acts of 2011 establishes new deadlines for implementing POS rate regulation as well as requires that related procurements not go forward until after the rate setting process is completed. Jan 2012 Statutory Requirement: Percent of POS System with Regulated Rates Spending Base Associated with Statutory Percentage (based on current projection of $2. 278 B POS Baseline to be implemented) 3 Jan 2014 40% 30% ~ $880 M ~ $660 M
The Cost Analysis and Rate Setting Effort has Several Objectives and Challenges Objectives and Benefits Pricing Analysis, Rate Development, Approval, and Hearing Process • Development of uniform analysis for standard pricing of common services Data Sources Identified or Developed • Rate setting under Chapter 257 will enable: A. Predictable, reimbursement models that reduce unexplainable variation in rates among comparable, economically operated providers Provider Consultation B. Incorporation of inflation adjusted prospective pricing methodologies C. Standard and regulated approach to assessing the impact of new service requirements into reimbursement rates • Transition from “cost reimbursement” to “unit rate” Challenges Cost Analysis & Rate Methods Development Provider Consultation • Ambitious implementation timeline • Data availability and integrity (complete/correct) Review/ Approval: Departments, Secretariat, and Admin & Finance • Unexplained historical variation in reimbursement rates resulting from long-term contracts and individual negotiations between purchasers and providers • Constrained financial resources for implementation, especially where pricing analysis warrants overall increases in reimbursement rates Public Comment and Hearing • Cross system collaboration and communication • Coordination of procurement with rate development activities 4 Possible Revision / Promulgation

Adult Long Term Care Service Class Definition: Programs that provide individuals a place of overnight housing for a long- term period of time in a specialized residential facility with necessary daily living, physical, social, clinical and/or medical support. Transition to a less restrictive setting, while ideal, is not a common goal for individuals receiving services in these settings. 6
Adult Long Term Care Services: Residential Rate Precepts • House rates will be assigned at the program level, rather than at the individual level • • • There is a different staffing pattern for each model of service that reflects the differences in the populations served. • • All existing residential programs will be placed into a program model that best reflects the needs of most of the individuals living in the program The funding level in a program model should be the same across all programs of the same type and capacity Program models that require direct care workers to have higher-level skills and experience will reflect higher paid direct care staff than more basic models. PSS is omitted for now as part of the rate- this is an individualized service that will be added on top of the rate model that serves a particular group of people. Occupancy and related expenses should be considered separately for pricing purposes from the actual program pricing models. Program expense models will cover everything but occupancy. That is, program rates should include funding for staffing, vehicles and program furnishings, among other operational considerations. 7

EOHHS Occupancy Survey Background • The 2012 EOHHS Occupancy Survey gathered information on the occupancy costs for the Adult Long Term Residences. The data collected will inform the pricing structure and rates to be developed for the facility component of Adult Long Term Residential services. • The 2012 Occupancy Survey was electrically submitted to over 200 Residential providers. • The data from 2012 Occupancy Survey represents the responses from over 1, 400 caregiver sites across Massachusetts. • Survey Gizmo was the survey tool used to administer the survey. 9
Statistics: What do we look for? • • R 2 is a statistical method that explains how much of the variability of a factor can be caused or explained by its relationship to another factor. An R 2 of 1. 0 indicates that the two factors are perfectly aligned. • • • ANOVA tests are used to analyze two variables where one of the variables is represented by categories (e. g. , type of heating fuel or DDS regional location). The ANOVA is represented by a P-Value. A P-Value of 0. 05 or less indicates a possible relationship. • • • A R 2 value of. 023 reflects a weak relationship between two factors where an R 2 value of. 98 indicates a very strong relationship between them. In this data, a strong relationship would indicate that a factor is an occupancy cost driver, a weak relationship would indicate that the factor does not significantly influence occupancy unit cost. Opposite from the R 2, a P-value of. 023 reflects a strong relationship where a P-value of. 98 indicates a weak relationship. An F-Crit score of greater than 2. 0 is desirable. >= 25 pieces of data must be present in each category data group. 10

EOHHS Occupancy Survey: List of Variables Explored • Physical Condition • Type of Site (Apartment or House) • Type of Heat • Improvements for Accessibility • Economies of scale • Type of Ownership • Location • Year site placed into service 12
EOHHS Occupancy Survey Results: Physical Condition of Facility 75% of EOHHS sites are functional and not in need of immediate repair. 13 Physical condition of the facility is not a cost driver.
EOHHS Occupancy Survey Results: Site Layout 12% Apartment House 88% P-value 0. 191932 *The site layout is not statistically significant. Site layout is not a cost driver. 14

EOHHS Occupancy Survey: Ownership 2% No Response Lease 52% 39% Leased from Related Party Lease to Own The majority (52%) of caregiver facilities are owned. With a P-Value of less than 0. 05, there appears to be statistical value here. F crit 4% P-value 3% 0. 021533 2. 61113 ____________________________________ Caregiver facilities that were leased in any manner were grouped together resulting in the “Lease Group” category. The resulting P- Value was greater than 0. 05 demonstrating a a lack of statistical value. Ownership With Lease Grouped 53% Lease grouped: 47% Own: P-value 0. 184778 19
EOHHS Occupancy Survey: Leases from Related Parties There is statistical significance between the unit costs of facilities that are “Lease from Related Party” when compared to all others categories combined. Yet, when “Lease from Related Party” is removed, the statistical significance is lost. Without “Lease from Related Party” there is no statistical significance among ownership types. Leased from Related Party does have a cost impact Lease + Own + Lease to own VS. Leased from Related Party No cost impact without Lease From Related Party Lease VS. Lease to Own VS. Own *Lease from Related Party removed No cost impact without Lease From Related Party Lease VS.
