The Agency for Health Care Administation is hosting a public meeting to address questions about the Long Term Care Data book released on March 16, 2012. In compliance with 409.966 (2), F.S., on Statewide Medicaid Managed Care (SMMC), the Agency for Health Care Administration (Agency) released the Long Term Care (LTC) data book on March 16, 2012. The data book provides relevant background information on the LTC component of the SMMC program that prospective plans will find useful in the development of their Invitation to Negotiate (ITN) response. The LTC data book provides the three most recent years of Medicaid summarized regional and statewide historical data, both fee-for-service and encounter data, for populations expected to be eligible for the SMMC LTC program and services that will be the responsibility of the LTC plans. Certain adjustments have been made to historical data in the data book, and additional adjustments to the data are expected to be made as the negotiation of actuarially sound rates with the plans occurs. An updated data book will be included in the ITN that will be posted no later than July 1, 2012.
