Desc	RESEARCH AND PROJECT SERVICES:THE CENTER'S WORK MAY BE CATEGORIZED INTO FIVE GENERAL POLICY AREAS; EACH IS DESCRIBED BELOW.LONG TERM SERVICES AND SUPPORTS: STATES THAT HAVE BEEN THE MOST SUCCESSFUL IN TRANSFORMING THEIR SYSTEMS OF LONG TERM SERVICES AND SUPPORTS TO BE PRIMARILY PROVIDED IN THE COMMUNITY HAVE TACKLED REFORMS ON MULTIPLE FORMS. THEY HAVE STREAMLINED ENTRY IN TO COMMUNITY SERVICES PROGRAMS TO MAKE THEM AS ACCESSIBLE AS INSTITUTIONAL CARE; MADE EFFECTIVE USE OF TECHNOLOGY TO HELP INDIVIDUALS ACCESS AND COORDINATE NEEDED SUPPORTS; CONTROLLED THE GROWTH OF BOTH COMMUNITY AND INSTITUTIONAL SPENDING; AND HAVE BEGUN TO BETTER INTEGRATE THE DELIVERY OF LONG TERM AND CHRONIC CARE. OTHER STATES ACROSS THE COUNTRY ARE LOOKING TO THE LEADER STATES FOR STRATEGIES THEY CAN APPLY TO REFORMING THEIR SYSTEMS. THE CENTER'S WORK IN LONG TERM AND CHRONIC CARE DELIVERY SYSTEMS ANALYZES STATE INITIATIVES IN ORDER TO ADVANCE PROMISING PRACTICES THAT COULD BE ADOPTED MORE BROADLY BY STATES. WE HAVE ALSO CONDUCTED ASSESSMENTS OF THE FACTORS THAT ARE LIMITING FURTHER PROGRESS ON DELIVERY SYSTEMS REFORMS AND HAVE RECOMMENDED CHANGES IN FEDERAL FINANCING OF LONG TERM SERVICES AND SUPPORTS AND WAYS TO BETTER COORDINATE THE MEDICARE AND MEDICAID PROGRAMS OF BEHALF OF DUAL ELIGIBLES.CHRONIC AND VULNERABLE POPULATIONS: PERSONS WHO REQUIRE ASSISTANCE WITH DAILY ACTIVITIES OVER THE LONG TERM DUE TO DISABILITY OR CHRONIC HEALTH CONDITIONS OFTEN HAVE COMPLEX NEEDS THAT MUST BE ADDRESSED BY MULTIPLE PROVIDERS AND DELIVERY SYSTEMS. THE CENTER'S WORK IN LONG TERM SERVICES AND SUPPORTS IS AIMED AT ASSISTING STATE POLICYMAKERS TO ASSESS THEIR CURRENT SYSTEMS AND ADVANCE REFORMS IN THE WAY SERVICES ARE ORGANIZED, FINANCED AND DELIVERED. SPECIFICALLY, STATES ARE PROVIDING MORE OPPORTUNITIES FOR INDIVIDUALS TO RECEIVE SERVICES AND SUPPORTS IN THEIR OWN HOMES AND COMMUNITIES. IN CHRONIC CARE, THE CENTER SUPPORTS STATES' EFFORTS TO IMPROVE THE TREATMENT AND A MANAGEMENT OF CHRONIC CONDITIONS, ENHANCE CARE COORDINATION, AND INTEGRATE THE DELIVERY OF HEALTH AND LONG TERM CARE SERVICES.POPULATION HEALTH: STATES HAVE A CRITICAL ROLE TO PLAY IN DEVELOPING PUBLIC HEALTH SYSTEMS THAT PROTECT AND IMPROVE HEALTH AT THE COMMUNITY AND POPULATION LEVELS BY PREVENTING DISEASE AND PROMOTING HEALTHY BEHAVIORS. STATES CAN DEVELOP POLICIES AND INITIATIVES TO EDUCATE THE PUBLIC, SUPPORT COMMUNITY PROGRAMS, PREPARE FOR AND PREVENT INFECTIOUS DISEASE OUTBREAKS, PREVENT INJURIES, AND ENSURE SAFE ENVIRONMENTS. THE CENTER CREATES OPPORTUNITIES TO ENGAGE GROUPS OF INFLUENTIAL STATE OFFICIALS, INCLUDING GOVERNOR'S POLICY ADVISORS, PUBLIC HEALTH DIRECTORS AND STAFF, AND MEDICAID AND CHIP LEADERSHIP MORE FULLY IN CHRONIC DISEASE PREVENTION AND HEALTH PROMOTION. THE CENTER HAS ANALYZED STATE EFFORTS FOCUSED ON SPECIFIC CHRONIC DISEASES, SUCH AS OBESITY, AND ALSO WORKED WITH STATES FOCUSED ON BROAD HEALTH REFORM INITIATIVES TO EXAMINE HOW THEY HAVE ADDRESSED CHRONIC DISEASE PREVENTION TO IMPROVE HEALTH OUTCOMES AND CONTAIN COSTS IN THE LONG TERM.CHILD AND FAMILY HEALTH - THROUGH MEDICAID AND THE CHILDREN'S HEALTH INSURANCE PROGRAM (CHIP), STATES AND THE NATION HAVE MADE SUBSTANTIAL PROGRESS IN COVERING CHILDREN AND IMPROVING THEIR ACCESS TO QUALITY HEALTH CARE SUPPORTING HEALTHY GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT. IN 2015, THE CENTER CONTINUED IT SUPPORT, ANALYSIS, AND REPORTING ON STATE EFFORTS TO EXTEND CHILDREN'S COVERAGE SINCE THE CHIP PROGRAM'S INCEPTION, BUILDING ON THE ORGANIZATION'S LONGSTANDING WORK ON MEDICAID. THE CENTER SUPPORTS ACTIVE STATE-TO-STATE EXCHANGE AND COLLABORATIVE LEARNING BY REGULARLY CONVENING STATE OFFICIALS WORKING TO COVER CHILDREN VIA WEB, AUDIO, AND IN-PERSON MEETINGS AND THROUGH MECHANISMS SUCH AS WORKGROUPS AND ELECTRONIC DISCUSSION FORUMS. THE CENTER FACILITATES DIALOGUE BETWEEN, AND SERVES AS AN INFORMATION RESOURCE FOR, STATE AND FEDERAL PROGRAM ADMINISTRATORS AND POLICYMAKERS, AS WELL AS ADVOCATES, RESEARCHERS AND OTHER STAKEHOLDERS. THROUGH SURVEYS, CASE STUDIES AND OTHER METHODS, THE CENTER COLLECTS, ANALYZES AND REPORTS INFORMATION ON THE CHARACTERISTICS, CHALLENGES AND BEST PRACTICES OF STATE COVERAGE PROGRAMS FOCUSED PARTICULARLY ON CHILDREN AND FAMILIES, AND INITIATIVES IN ACHIEVING STATE AND FEDERAL GOALS FOR IMPROVING THAT COVERAGE.EMERGING POLICIES - MANY STATES ARE DEVELOPING AND IMPLEMENTING PAYMENT REFORM INITIATIVES TO HELP IMPROVE THE PATIENT EXPERIENCE AND THE HEALTH OF POPULATIONS WHILE LOWERING THE COSTS OF CARE. PAYMENT REFORM EFFORTS INVOLVE A TRANSITION AWAY FROM FEE-FOR-SERVICE (FFS) PAYMENT MECHANISMS THAT REWARD HIGH VOLUME TO ALTERNATIVE PAYMENT METHODS THAT REWARD VALUE. SUCH PAYMENT MODELS INCLUDE SHARED SAVINGS, BUNDLED PAYMENTS, PAY-FOR-PERFORMANCE, AND TOTAL COST OF CARE BUDGETS. THROUGH RESEARCH, TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE, AND PEER-LEARNING NETWORKS, THE CENTER SUPPORTS STATES THAT ARE IMPLEMENTING SUCH PAYMENT REFORM MODELS AMONG THEIR MEDICAID AND STATE EMPLOYEE POPULATIONS AS WELL AS STATES THAT ARE PARTNERING WITH COMMERCIAL INSURERS TO DESIGN MULTI-PAYER INITIATIVES. THIS BODY OF WORK ALSO INCLUDES FOCUS ON INSURANCE EXCHANGES -- INCLUDING ISSUES RELATED TO CHIP REAUTHORIZATION, DENTAL COVERAGE, AND MENTAL HEALTH AND SUBSTANCE ABUSE NEEDS -- THAT HAVE BEEN AT THE FOREFRONT OF HEALTH POLICY IN THE LAST FEW YEARS. THE CENTER CHRONICLES STATE ACTIVITIES RELATED TO ELIGIBILITY AND ENROLLMENT IN THE EXCHANGES-INCLUDING SUCCESSFUL STRATEGIES, CHALLENGES, AND LESSONS STATES HAVE LEARNED WHILE NAVIGATING THE EVER CHANGING INSURANCE MARKETPLACE.
