Bill > A00700

This bill amends the New York Public Health Law to modify reporting requirements for managed long-term care plans, changing from biannual to annual reporting and expanding the depth and transparency of required data. The bill mandates that the commissioner of health will now produce an annual report with comprehensive details about managed long-term care services, including service utilization data, enrollment information, quality metrics, and continuity of care. Specifically, the bill requires plans to report detailed information such as member months for different service types, expenditure breakdowns, complaint and appeal statistics, service access metrics, and data tracking the transition between institutional and community-based care. The report must be posted on the department's website in an interactive format, allowing comparisons between plans, and must be made available by February 1st and September 1st each year. Additionally, the bill mandates that final audited annual managed long-term care cost reports be made available for download in CSV format within 30 days of completion. The goal appears to be increasing transparency and providing more comprehensive insights into the performance and characteristics of managed long-term care plans in New York State.
