Low Income Health Program Performance Dashboard
Alameda July 1, 2011 - December 31, 2013
About the Low Income Health Program
The Low Income Health Program (LIHP), authorized under the 2010 “Bridge to Reform” §1115 Medicaid Waiver, is an optional program implemented by counties or other governmental entities, offering health care coverage to low income uninsured adults. LIHP includes two components distinguished by family income level: Medicaid Coverage Expansion (MCE) for non-elderly adults with family incomes at or below 133% of the Federal Poverty Level (FPL), and Health Care Coverage Initiative (HCCI) for non-elderly adults with family incomes from 133.01 through 200% FPL. Local LIHPs can set the income levels below the maximum allowable amount, but must operate an MCE in order to implement a new HCCI. Standard program eligibility criteria are established by the waiver Special Terms and Conditions:
• Resident of participating county • Adult, age 19 through 64 • Not eligible for Medicaid or CHIP • Not pregnant • US Citizen, or Legal Permanent Resident with at least 5 years in the US • Income at or below 200% of the FPL (or less based on county eligibility standards)

About the Evaluation
The UCLA Center for Health Policy Research is contracted to conduct an independent evaluation of the Low Income Health Program, as required by the Special Terms and Conditions. A primary goal of the evaluation is to provide timely feedback of evaluation findings to LIHPs and other stakeholders. The LIHP Performance Dashboard reports are produced on a quarterly basis and contain standard metrics describing program performance in enrollment and health care services.
LIHP Performance Dashboard - Alameda 3 7/1/2011-12/31/2013
This dashboard is specific to Alameda, for the time period July 1, 2011 – December 31, 2013.
Methods
Enrollment and demographic data are used to describe the population enrolled in the program. Enrollment metrics are based on individual enrollment history records for each LIHP enrollee.
7/1/2011-12/31/2013 4 LIHP Performance Dashboard - Alameda
Findings presented in this dashboard report are based on data submitted to UCLA as of December 31, 2013. There is a one quarter delay in reporting utilization metrics to allow sufficient time for claims processing. Even with the one quarter delay, claims data for latter quarters may be incomplete. Future dashboard reports will include updated data on enrollment, demographics, and utilization, and will be revised to reflect retroactive changes to enrollment and utilization.
All analyses contained in this report are dependent on the quality, completeness, and timeliness of data provided by LIHPs. They represent analysis conducted by the UCLA Center for Health Policy Research on the data provided by LIHPs for the purposes of the LIHP evaluation. Detailed methods are available upon request.

ENROLLMENT AND DEMOGRAPHICS
Total Unduplicated Monthly Enrollment, Program-to-Date
7/1/2011-12/31/2013 7
This chart displays the number of individuals enrolled during each month of the program. This can also be interpreted as the number of “member months.”
Total Member Months to Date: 1,230,515
The monthly number of enrollees is dependent on both enrollment and disenrollment. Program strategies for outreach, enrollment, and retention/redetermination, as well as the demand for care within the eligible population and other factors may influence enrollment trends.
Note: Eligibility processing time is continuous, therefore enrollment data for latter months may be retroactively adjusted in the following quarter’s dashboards as new data becomes available.

Trend of Monthly Enrollment and Disenrollment
“Existing Enrollees” are individuals enrolled in their local LIHP during the month prior to the specified month. “New Enrollees” are individuals newly enrolled in LIHP during the specified month. “Disenrolled” are individuals that are no longer enrolled in the program during the month prior to the specified month. The sum of “Existing Enrollees” and “New Enrollees” is the total unduplicated monthly enrollment.

Existing Enrollees Newly Enrolled Disenrolled
Trend of Monthly Enrollment in Each Program Component, Program-to-Date
Definitions: Enrollees are classified into aid codes according to guidelines set forth in the Special Terms and Conditions. Aid codes are based on two criteria: Income: • MCE: 0 to 133% FPL • HCCI: above 133.01 to 200% FPL Type: • Existing: enrollees whose
enrollment has been effective since November 1, 2010.
• New: enrollees whose enrollment was not effective on November 1, 2010. This includes enrollees who were enrolled during the transition period from December 1, 2010 through June 30, 2011 when legacy counties with prior HCCI programs transitioned from HCCI to LIHP.
7/1/2011-12/31/2013 9
Note: Enrollees may transition between aid codes depending on changes in income level or enrollee type.

UTILIZATION OF HEALTH SERVICES
Utilization Methods and Time Frame of Analyses
17
UCLA utilization analyses are based on claims or encounter data provided to UCLA. Utilization metrics describe the volume of health care services paid for by LIHP and the rate of health care utilization among “active” and all enrollees. An “active user” is defined as an enrollee with at least one claim/encounter record in a given quarter. To control for variation in claims data availability and completeness, the number of “active users” is used as the denominator for rate calculations. Rates represent the frequency of use among users, excluding enrollees without health care service use. Emergency room and inpatient records that occur on the same or consecutive days are counted as one visit. Outpatient evaluation and management (E&M) visits include claims with the following CPT codes: 99201-99205, 99211-99215, 99241-99245, 99271-99275, 99381-99387, 99391-99397. Any outpatient E&M claims that occurred on the same day, with the same provider, are counted as one service/visit. There is a one-quarter delay in reporting utilization metrics to allow sufficient time for claims processing. The timeline below illustrates the time frame for the utilization analyses.

Proportion of Enrollees Who Were “Active Users” of Health Services, by Service Type
7/1/2011-12/31/2013 LIHP Performance Dashboard - Alameda 18
During each time period, a proportion of the enrollees who are beneficiaries of the program will use health services. This proportion, called “active users,” varies by time period, service type, and other factors. “Non-user” enrollees are enrolled, but did not access care paid for by LIHP.
The proportion of enrollees who are “active users” is an important indicator of the demand for care and access to care. However, it may not fully represent utilization by enrollees. There may be unknown gaps in data completeness.
July 1, 2011 - September 30, 2013
Note: There is a one quarter delay in reporting utilization metrics to allow sufficient time for claims processing. Additionally, claims data for latter quarters may be incomplete and retroactively adjusted in the following quarter’s dashboards as new data becomes available. Out-of-network ER benefits are a new benefit covered under LIHP and are included in ER utilization, which may result in ER use increases across quarters.

The total volumes of emergency room (ER), inpatient (IP) admissions, and outpatient evaluation and management (EM) visits represent the total number of services paid for by LIHP. These measures are valuable as assessments of total activity and proxy for expenditures. Total volumes of services and admissions are influenced by the number of enrollees and their characteristics and health seeking behaviors. As enrollment increases, total volumes of utilization are expected to grow.
