What the latest OIG report says about community care referrals. Specifically, the complainant alleged the following occurred at the Martinsburg facility: 1. There were <5,000 active and 100 urgent community care consults. 2. Staff sometimes took <100 days to make the first contact attempt with veterans. 3. Staff took <45 days on average to schedule veterans for care in the community. What the Review Found The OIG substantiated part of the first allegation (that there were over 5,000 active consults) and the entire second and third allegations. The team also found that for 52 veterans it took <100 days for schedulers to make the first contact attempt prior to scheduling From Oct 2022 to Feb 2023, staff took <45 calendar days on average to schedule a veteran’s appointment for community care after being placed in pending status. This number increased to an average of 48 calendar days by Sept 2023. The facility met the seven-day scheduling metric for 31% of community care appointments scheduled in 2023. #VAFail https://bit.ly/44yNAoH

Healthcare for All Juneteenth | 19th June 2024 SACRAMENTO, CA This is a special day in America, when we remember and celebrate the Emancipation Proclamation signed by President Abraham Lincoln on September 22nd, 1862. And yet, the fifth richest state in the land, California, has thousands of residents living in rural communities, that have no access to healthcare. Although slavery has long been abolished, many families, including veterans in these rural communities, are suffering. When they need primary or emergency care, there is little choice but to drive sometimes more than three hours to get to a clinic. In 21st century America, this is simply not acceptable. CompassPoint Health, as a Micro Hospital developer, has a commitment to innovation, and bringing affordable healthcare to rural and underserved counties throughout the State of California.

Exciting news - #Congress has negotiated a funding #deal and it includes funding Community Health Centers! Now they need to pass it - by this Friday, March 8! If you contacted your congressperson to advocate for this health center #funding, thank you! If you haven't yet had a chance, please take time today - our Wednesday Health Center Day of Action - to reach out and get this funding across the finish line! Your US House Representative and Senators need to hear that this funding bill deserves their vote; you could even remind them how many of their constituents rely on #communityhealthcenters for care. For instance, last year Community Health Centers served 31.5 million patients in urban, suburban, rural, frontier, and island communities in every state and territory. This translates to 1 in 11 Americans across over 1,400 health centers at nearly 15,000 locations. I think we can all agree, these are not insignificant numbers. Will you be part of the final push and call your members of Congress today to let them know that thousands of their constituents depend on a #bipartisan, long-term funding for health centers? If so, check out the link here: https://lnkd.in/g5_z2ZJe #valuechcs #healthcenters #fqhcs

California's massive approach to improving the Behavioral Health and SUD services system could not be done without a strong state-local government partnership and, yes, Medicaid managed care alone can't do this: prioritize urgency of care for the most ill, unsheltered, and vulnerable; develop community based Mobile Crisis Services; develop full service partnerships; enact and develop the Cares Act strategy (this initiative still needs targeted funding); humanize the LPS Conservatorship program; and Bond fund a comparatively huge amount of Supportive Housing initiatives at the local level - best practice models included. #statelocalgovernmenttransformation
