Two CMS Demonstrations Available to Support Duals Initiative
■ State Demonstrations to Integrate Care for Dual Eligible Individuals
■ Financial Models to Support State Efforts to Integrate Care for Medicare-Medicaid Enrollees

■ For states like MA with a Design Contract, the two demonstrations may be paired

Connecting with Community Organizations: Key Principles
■ Require the entities to employ community-based service providers (directly or through contracts) that advance independence of members and redirect to least restrictive settings
■ Rely on entities to support marketing, outreach and enrollment functions
■ Payment to plans to include Community Health Workers, peer specialists, recovery, wellness, and chronic disease self-management to make the connections between members needing services and resources in the community
■ Care teams and person-centered planning process should support an individual’s needs, such as by embracing principles of the recovery movement
