On Feb. 5, 2020, the Department of Health and Human Services issued the NC DHHS Transition of Care Draft Policy for public comments detailing the requirements under which the Standard Plan Prepaid Health Plans (PHPs) will facilitate transition of care for members transitioning between PHPs or service delivery systems. The Transition of Care design intends to maintain continuity of care for each beneficiary and minimize the burden on providers during transition.
Due to the suspension of NC Medicaid Managed Care, this policy will go into effect when Medicaid Managed Care goes live. The Department will host an informational webinar on Feb. 18, 2020, from 2-3 p.m. EST. Please register for NC DHHS Transition of Care Policy Overview webinar here.
The Department welcomes feedback on the policy at Medicaid.Transformation@dhhs.nc.gov by March 6, 2020.
