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 aims to support individuals who are current or prospective participants of the state's home care program, but who are determined to be "clinically complex" and require sustained, in-depth case management beyond the standard level provided. The bill defines "clinically complex" individuals as those facing challenges such as serious mental illness, complex family dynamics, or multiple medical and functional needs that put their ability to receive appropriate home care services at risk. The department is required to establish reimbursement rates for the intensive case management services that reflect the level of expertise and time commitment needed to successfully support these individuals' enrollment and ongoing participation in the home care program.
