Bailit Health has assisted over 150 clients since 1997 to improve methods for purchasing or regulating health and human services. A partial listing of these clients can be found below, as well as examples of the types of work that we have conducted for them.
Association for Community Affiliated Plans (ACAP) Value-Based Payment Planning Collective
CMMI: Medicaid Innovation Accelerator Program (IAP)
Client
Alzheimer´s Family Support Center of Cape Cod (AFSC)
Challenge
AFSC needed to develop and execute an evaluation of a series of novel programs for individuals with Alzheimer´s and dementia–related diseases (ADRD) and their caregivers, funded through a grant from the federal Administration on Community Living.
Response
Bailit Health worked with AFSC to create and execute an evaluation plan for six new programs. Bailit Health continues to support AFSC in conducting ongoing evaluation of programs that span from caregiver training and support to respite, community education, and cognitive screenings.
Client
Association for Community Affiliated Plans (ACAP) Value-Based Payment Planning Collective
Challenge
ACAP member plans requested guidance on how best to make progress toward implementation of value-based payment (VBP) arrangements with providers, including long-term service and supports (LTSS) providers and payment models that included LTSS.
Response
Bailit Health convened the identified members of ACAP to form a Collaborative interested in LTSS VBP models. Bailit Health developed the structure and content of the meetings and the Collaborative focused on understanding VBP approaches for LTSS, including lessons learned and provider perspectives; a guide on how to implement VBP for LTSS, including payment models and quality measures; using financial incentives to implement best practices in care delivery; and support for care in the most appropriate setting. Bailit Health provided a final webinar deliverable.
Client
CMMI: Medicaid Innovation Accelerator Program (IAP)
Challenge
The Center for Medicaid and Medicare Innovation IAP, needed to evaluate a LTSS technical assistance program which offered certain states and opportunity to receive dedicated technical assistance (TA) to address LTSS goals for improvement which they identified.
Response
As a subcontractor to Abt Associates, Bailit Health provided support to collect qualitative evaluation data from the states that received TA. The primary purpose of the evaluation was to identify which aspects of the TA were most helpful and had the most impact. Bailit Health also interviewed the individuals who provided the TA to incorporate their perspective on the value of the TA. In addition to conducting interviews, our team provided related notes and an analysis of interview themes.
