Anthem Medicaid – From the beginning

• Effective January 1, 2014, Anthem Medicaid won the bid to become one of the five Managed Care Organizations (MCOs) in the state of Kentucky for newly eligible recipients through the Affordable Care Act. At that time, Anthem operated in only seven of the eight Medicaid regions (excluded region 3).

• Effective July 1, 2015, Anthem Medicaid won the bid to remain one

of the five MCOs but moved into all eight Medicaid regions and became an option for all eligible recipients, including the existing Medicaid population (TANF, CHIP).

• All five MCOs operate statewide and include: – Anthem Medicaid

– CoventryCares of Kentucky

– Humana – CareSource

– Passport Health Plan

– WellCare

Medicaid open enrollment

• The Department for Medicaid Services (DMS) will be conducting an

open enrollment for eligible recipients in a managed care plan

starting October 19, 2015 – December 11, 2015.

• DMS will be mailing open enrollment packets to each eligible

recipient.

• This will be a passive open enrollment, which means that recipients

will not have to take any action if they would like to continue with

their current MCO.

• All plan changes will take effect January 1, 2016.

ICD-10 – Are you ready?

• ICD-10 implementation was effective October 1, 2015, as mandated by the

Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA).

• ICD-10-CM has greater clinical specificity. The new diagnosis code set

allows providers to report many additional details about the patient’s

condition(s).

• As part of Anthem’s approach to discovering, understanding and predicting

the impact of ICD-10, extensive end-to-end testing has been conducted with

selected providers and clearinghouses.

– The test claims included inpatient, outpatient and professional claims for

various specialties.
