Illinois Medicaid Selects Performance Measures For Integrated Health Home Program
On August 28, 2018, the Illinois Department of Healthcare and Family Services (HFS) announced the selection of 18 quality performance measures for its new Medicaid integrated health home (IHH) program that will formally launch in January 2019. The first quarterly reports will take place in April 2019. A year-end assessment will determine a bonus level based-on performance outcomes, or corrective action plans as needed. IHHs will be able to qualify for one of three bonus levels: Bronze, Silver, or Gold.
