“I would like to recognize David Lowe – he has helped collaborate on several Wraparound cases recently. His feedback has been extremely beneficial and helpful in getting the most appropriate services to help keep our consumers safe. I really value his partnership and teamwork approach.”
Community Services Supervisor Highfields
“I would like to recognize Recovery Technology, Hope Network and Segue for their hard work to immediately address a data integrity issue when it was discovered. A recent review from the Data Integrity Group (DIG) produced a result of over 400 inactive staff members who were still assigned to a consumer case. Although those staff did not have access to the record any longer, the incorrect information produced incorrect results connected to treatment team lists, caseloads, consumers not seen,
(within an hour of sending the initial email) to the consumer chart. Thank you so VERY MUCH for your prompt attention to this matter as LifeWays (and its DIG committee) is committed to ensuring the integrity of the data within LEO.” Alexis Shapiro EMR System Administrator LifeWays Community Mental Health

Julie Strenn, Subject Matter Expert Employment First Grant
State of Michigan established an Employment First Policy Priority. In FY 2018 State of Michigan budget, funds for this project are
appropriated to support the objectives stated in Executive Order 2015- 15 titled Employment First in Michigan.
In FY 2016 Oakland Community Health Network in collaboration with
Office of Disability Employment Policy (ODEP) rate initiative, was chosen to participate in rate restructuring.
In FY 2018 an opportunity was created for four (4) CMH to receive
technical assistance for rate restructuring to support the Employment First philosophy.
NEMCMH was CHOSEN to receive Rate Restructuring TA!
Increase # of working-age members (16-64) working in integrated
employment at competitive wage with supports as needed.
Support CMH and employment providers to use alternative payment
methodologies (to allow use of reimbursement models other than fee- for-service)
Determine options for addressing negative consequences of being able
to bill only for face-to-face service delivery.
Match outcomes desired with payment model to encourage maximum
level of independence.
Competitive Integrated Employment…
Integrated Employment refers to individualized work paid directly by employers at competitive wage with commensurate benefits, occurring in a typical work setting where the employee with a disability interacts or has the
an opportunity for advancement and mobility, and is preferably engaged full time. Individualized - individual employment situations, not small groups (even if pay is competitive and setting is integrated)
Supported employment is considered competitive, integrated employment when:
a disability interacts or has the opportunity to interact continuously with co-workers without disabilities and has an

WIOA – Youth Transition HCBS - March, 2014: (Implementation by 2019-2022)
Heightened Scrutiny will be released soon on all non-residential settings Implementation – compliance by March 2019 unless individualized plan for each person
Home and Community-Based Settings are places that:
Support access to the greater community Provide opportunities to seek employment and work in competitive integrated settings Provide opportunities to engage in community life Provide opportunities to control personal resources Give people receiving services the same access to the community as those who aren’t receiving
services
Key Themes:
Re-adjust rates to match preferred outcomes/services Create a ”financial incentive” to do Competitive Integrated Employment and a “cost” if not
transitioned to CIE.
Need to create a financial path for providers to transform their system. – payment for Job
Development
Maintain Cost Neutrality:
Build expectation of job coach fading into reimbursement structure for supported
employment
Fading possible due to blend of the following strategies:
Customize positions to match skills Use systematic training to teach job duties Use of assistive/adaptive technology and aids Engage natural supports (compensate if necessary)
