WORKING WITH THE LEATHERSTOCKING COLLABORATIVE HEALTH PARTNERS, PRIMARY CARE PROVIDERS ARE PERFORMING MENTAL HEALTH SCREENINGS AND TRACKING INFORMATION IN THE ELECTRONIC HEALTH RECORD. THIS ALLOWS FOR PRIMARY CARE AND MENTAL HEALTH PROVIDERS TO COLLABORATE ON MEDICAL AND MENTAL HEALTH CARE PLANS. LITTLE FALLS HOSPITAL, BASSETT MEDICAL CENTER, AND HERKIMER COUNTY PUBLIC HEALTH ARE COORDIANTING RECRUITMENT OF ADDITIONAL MENTAL HEALTH PROVIDERS. LITTLE FALLS HOSPITAL IS A PARTNER IN THE LEATHERSTOCKING COLLABORATIVE HEALTH PARTNERS (LHCP), LLC. THIS ORGANIZATION REPRESENTS A REGIONAL ORGANIZATION, ESTABLISHED IN PARTNERSHIP WITH NYS DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH, UNDER A CMS REFERENCED DELIVERY SYSTEM REFORM INCENTIVE PAYMENT (DSRIP) PROGRAM. THIS PROGRAM IS DESIGNED FOR CARE TRANSITION TEAMS TO WORK ON ELEVEN PROJECTS FOR THE PURPOSE OF REDUCING UNNECCESSARY VISITS TO EMERGENCY DEPARTMENTS AND UNNECCESSARY INPATIENT ADMISSIONS. IN 2016, OUR INTIATIVES FOR THE CHNA AND DSRIP WERE AS FOLLOWS:1.)ORGANIZING THE DOLGEVILLE AND NEWPORT HEALTH CENTERS AS "PATIENT CENTERED MEDICAL HOMES" (PCMH). ACHIEVING PCMH WILL BE COMPLETED IN 2017 BASED ON AN APPLICATION PROCESS AND APPROVAL BY A NATIONAL COMMITTEE FOR QUALITY ASSURANCE (NCQA). DURING THIS APPLICATION PROCESS, FOCUS ON PATIENT CASE MANAGEMENT, CARE COORDINATION, TEAM-BASED CARE, AND IMPROVING USES OF THE ELECTRONIC HEALTH RECORD, ARE MAJOR PERFORMANCE IMPROVEMENTS FOR PATIENT CARE. IN 2016, OUR HEALTH CENTERS PERFORMED APPROXIMATELY 1,000 WELLNESS VISITS FOR PATIENTS IN ALL AGE CLASSIFICATIONS. 2.)EDUCATING HEALTH CENTER PROVIDERS ON USING ASTHMA TREATMENT PLANS TO SUPPORT PATIENTS. IMPROVE ACCESS TO ASTHMA SPECIALISTS WITH THE ELECTRONIC HEALTH RECORD FOR SHARING CARE PLANS. IN 2016, THE ELECTRONIC HEALTH RECORD ASTHMA TREATMENT TEMPLATES ARE BEING TRACKED FOR COMPLIANCE WITH PROTOCOLS. 3.) INTRODUCED THE NYS MEDICAID ACCELERATED EXCHANGE (MAX) PROCESS TO USE PATIENT CENTERED PROCESSES TO REDUCE USE OF EMEGENCY DEPARTMENT BY CHRONIC CARE PATIENTS. LITTLE FALLS HEALTH CENTERS IN DOLGEVILLE AND NEWPORT PARTICIPATED IN THIS PROJECT AND IMPROVED THEIR CARE MANAGEMENT PLANS TO REDUCE EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT VISITS. IN 2017 THE USE OF PHYTEL AUTOMATED TECHNOLOGY EXPANDED OUR 2016 BASELINE AWARENESS OF INTEGRATING HEALTH AWARENESS TOPICS WITH OUR PATIENTS. THIS AUTOMATED SYSTEM ALLOWS OUR CARE MANAGERS TO INTERACT WITH PATIENTS MORE EFFICIENTLY. PHYTEL ENABLES CLOSER RELATIONSHIPS WITH PROVIDERS AND PATIENTS TO SHARE IN TREATMENT PLANS. WE HAVE IDENTIFIED THE DIFFICULTY IN RECRUITING PRIMARY CARE AND UNDERSTAFFED MENTAL HEALTH PROVIDERS IN OUR REGION AS A BARRIER TO MEETING OUR CHNA GOALS. THIS SHORTAGE OF PROVIDERS IS BEING ADDRESSED IN RECRUIMENT PLANS IN COORDINATION WITH BASSETT MEDICAL CENTER, HERKIMER COUNTY PUBLIC HEALTH, AND LITTLE FALLS HOSPITAL.

PART I, LINE 7G:	LITTLE FALLS HOSPITAL OPERATES TWO PRIMARY CARE HEALTH CENTERS LOCATED IN DOLGEVILLE AND NEWPORT NEW YORK. THESE CENTERS PROVIDE PRIMARY CARE SERVICES INCLUDING VACCINATIONS, WELL CARE VISITS, AND PRIMARY CARE FOLLOW-UP APPOINTMENTS. USING AN ELECTRONIC HEALTH RECORD ENABLES PATIENTS TO HAVE ACCESS TO THEIR PERSONAL HEALTH INFORMATION IN A TIMELY MANNER. THROUGH AN ELECTONIC HEALTH RECORD SYSTEM, PATIENTS CAN ELECT TO HAVE PORTAL ACCESS FOR PORTIONS OF THEIR PERSONAL HEALTH INFORMATION. IN 2017, THESE HEALTH CENTERS ACHIEVED THE STATUS TO BE RECOGNIZED AS PATIENT CENTERED MEDICAL HOME (PCMH) UNDER THE NATIONAL COMMITTEE OF QUALITY ASSURANCE (NCQA) STANDARDS. AS A PCMH CARE COORDINATION AND MANAGEMENT OF PATIENT SOCIAL DETERMINANTS IS PART OF CARE PLANS FOR PATIENTS.

THESE ACTIVITIES ALLOW FOR DIALOG ON CURRENT HEALTHCARE TOPICS, INSURANCE PROGRAMS, AND RECRUITMENT OF FUTURE EMPLOYEES. LITTLE FALLS HOSPITAL COLLABORATES WITH BASSETT MEDICAL CENTER ON RECRUITMENT INITIATIVES FOCUSING ON PRIMARY CARE. HERKIMER COUNTY HAS ONE OF THE LOWEST RATIOS OF PRIMARY CARE PROVIDERS TO RESIDENTS IN NEW YORK STATE. IN 2017, LITTLE FALLS HOSPITAL ALSO SUPPORTED TWO EMPLOYEES TO BECOME NURSE PRACTITIONERS AND WHO WILL REMAIN IN OUR SERVICE AREA WHEN TRAINING IS COMPLETED.
PART III, LINE 3:	AN ESTIMATE FOR POTENTIAL CHARITY CARE WAS BASED ON THE DENIED APPLICATIONS PROCESSED IN 2017 COMPARED WITH THOSE APPROVED APPLICATIONS.

NEW YORK STATE HEALTH CARE TRANSFORMATION INITIATIVES:NEW YORK STATE DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH HAS MULTIPLE INITIATIVES TO ACHIEVE THE "TRIPLE AIM." THE TRIPLE AIM FOCUSES ON THREE DIMENSIONS: IMPROVING PATIENT EXPERIENCE, IMPROVING POPULATION HEALTH AND REDUCING HEALTH CARE COSTS.

EACH DSRIP PROJECT HAS SPECIFIC MILESTONES AND METRICS WITH AN INCENTIVE BASED PAYMENT MODEL THAT ALLOCATES PAYOUT UPON ACHIEVING PREDEFINED RESULTS IN SYSTEM TRANSFORMATION, CLINICAL MANAGEMENT AND POPULATION HEALTH. ADDITIONALLY, A NUMBER OF QUALITY GOALS MUST BE ACHIEVED INCLUDING ACCESS MEASURES, PREVENTIVE CARE AND CARE COORDINATION. THE DSRIP PROGRAM COVERS A FIVE-YEAR PERIOD BEGINNING APRIL 1, 2015 AND ENDING MARCH 31, 2020.LITTLE FALLS HOSPITAL AND HERKIMER COUNTY PUBLIC HEALTH ARE PARTICIPATING PARTNERS IN BASSETT HEALTHCARE NETWORK'S LEATHERSTOCKING COLLABORATIVE HEALTH PARTNERS (LCHP) PPS.
