Bill Summary
Relative to intensive case management for clinically complex older adults. Elder Affairs.
AI Summary
This bill establishes an intensive case management program within the Massachusetts Executive Office of Elder Affairs. The program is designed to support individuals who are either current or prospective participants of the state's home care program but are considered "clinically complex." This means they have serious mental illness, complex family dynamics impacting home care services, or multiple medical and functional needs that put their ability to receive appropriate care at risk. The bill requires the department to set reimbursement rates for the intensive case management services that reflect the expertise and time commitment required to successfully enroll and maintain these individuals in the home care program.
