Eligibility and Enrollment 2.3.1 The State of Georgia has the sole authority for determining eligibility for the Medicaid program and whether Medicaid beneficiaries are eligible for Enrollment in GF. DCH or its Agent will determine eligibility for PeachCare for Kids™ and will collect applicable premiums. DCH or its agent will continue responsibility for the electronic eligibility verification system (EVS). 2.3.2 DCH or its Agent will review the Medicaid Management Information System (MMIS) file daily and send written notification and information within two (2) Business Days to all Members who are determined eligible for GF. A Member shall have thirty (30) Calendar Days to select a CMO plan and a PCP. Each Family Head of Household shall have thirty (30) Calendar Days to select one (1) CMO plan for the entire Family and PCP for each member. DCH or its Agent will issue a monthly notice of all Enrollments to the CMO plan. 2.3.3 If the Member does not choose a CMO plan within thirty (30) Calendar Days of being deemed eligible for GF, DCH or its Agent will Auto-Assign the individual to a CMO plan using the following algorithm: · If an immediate family member(s) of the Member is already enrolled in one CMO plan, the Member will be Auto-Assigned to that plan; · If there are no immediate family members already enrolled and the Member has a Historical Provider Relationship with a Provider, the Member will be Auto-Assigned to the CMO plan where the Provider is contracted; · If the Member does not have a Historical Provider Relationship with a Provider in any CMO plan, or the Provider contracts with all plans, the Member will be Auto-Assigned based on an algorithm determined by DCH that may include quality, cost, or other measures. 2.3.4 Enrollment, whether chosen or Auto-Assigned, will be effective at 12:01 a.m. on the first (1st) Calendar Day of the month following the Member selection or Auto-Assignment, for those Members assigned on or between the first (1st) and twenty-fourth (24th) Calendar Day of the month. For those Members assigned on or between the twenty-fifth (25th) and thirty-first (31st) Calendar Day of the month, Enrollment will be effective at 12:01 a.m. on the first (1st) Calendar Day of the second (2nd) month after assignment. 2.3.5 In the future, at a date to be determined by DCH, DCH or its Agent may include quality measures in the Auto-Assignment algorithm. Members will be Auto-Assigned to those plans that have higher scores based on quality, cost, or other measures to be defined by DCH. This factor will be applied after determining that there are no Historical Provider Relationships. 2.3.6 In any Service Region, DCH may, at its discretion, set a threshold percentage for the enrollment of members in a single plan and change this threshold percentage at its discretion. Members will not be Auto-Assigned to a CMO plan that exceeds this threshold unless a family member is enrolled in the CMO plan or a Historical Provider Relationship exists with a Provider that does not participate in any other CMO plan in the Service Region. When DCH changes the threshold percentage in any Service Region, DCH will provide the CMOs in the Service Region with a minimum of fourteen (14) days advance notice in writing. 2.3.7 DCH or its Agent will have five (5) Business Days to notify Members and the CMO plan of the Auto-Assignment. Notice to the Member will be made in writing and sent via surface mail. Notice to the CMO plan will be made via file transfer. 2.3.8 DCH or its Agent will be responsible for the consecutive Enrollment period and re-Enrollment functions. 2.3.9 Conditioned on continued eligibility, all Members will be enrolled in a CMO plan for a period of twelve (12) consecutive months. This consecutive Enrollment period will commence on the first (1st) day of Enrollment or upon the date the notice is sent, whichever is later. If a Member disenrolls from one CMO plan and enrolls in a different CMO plan, consecutive Enrollment period will begin on the effective date of Enrollment in the second (2nd) CMO plan. 2.3.10 DCH or its Agent will automatically enroll a Member into the CMO plan in which he or she was most recently enrolled if the Member has a temporary loss of eligibility, defined as less than sixty (60) Calendar Days. In this circumstance, the consecutive Enrollment period will continue as though there has been no break in eligibility, keeping the original twelve (12) month period. 2.3.11 DCH or its Agent will notify Members at least once every twelve (12) months, and at least sixty (60) Calendar Days prior to the date upon which the consecutive Enrollment period ends (the annual Enrollment opportunity), that they have the opportunity to switch CMO plans. Members who do not make a choice will be deemed to have chosen to remain with their current CMO plan. 2.3.12 In the event a temporary loss of eligibility has caused the Member to miss the annual Enrollment opportunity, DCH or its Agent will enroll the Member in the CMO plan in which he or she was enrolled prior to the loss of eligibility. The member will receive a new 60-calendar day notification period beginning the first day of the next month. 2.3.13 In accordance with current operations, the State will issue a Medicaid number to a newborn upon notification from the hospital, or other authorized Medicaid provider. 2.3.14 Upon notification from a CMO plan that a Member is an expectant mother, DCH or its Agent shall mail a newborn enrollment packet to the expectant mother. This packet shall include information that the newborn will be Auto-Assigned to the mother’s CMO plan and that she may, if she wants, select a PCP for her newborn prior to the birth by contacting her CMO plan. The mother shall have ninety (90) Calendar Days from the day a Medicaid number was assigned to her newborn to choose a different CMO plan. 2.3.15 DCH may, at its sole discretion, elect to modify this threshold and/or use quality based auto-assignments for reasons it deems necessary and proper.

Disenrollment The Contractor shall: Have a mechanism for receiving timely information about all disenrollments from the Contractor’s One Care Plan, including the effective date of disenrollment, from CMS and MassHealth systems. All enrollments and disenrollment‑related transactions will be performed by the EOHHS customer service vendor. Subject to 42 C.F.R. § 423.100, § 423.38 and § 438.56. Enrollees can elect to disenroll from the One Care Plan or the Demonstration at any time and enroll in another One Care Plan, a Medicare Advantage plan, PACE, or Senior Care Options (if they meet applicable eligibility requirements); or may elect to receive services through Medicare fee‑for‑service and a prescription drug plan and to receive Medicaid services in accordance with the Commonwealth’s State plan and any waiver programs. Disenrollments received by MassHealth or the Contractor, or by CMS or its contractor by the last calendar day of the month will be effective on the first calendar day of the following month; Be responsible for ceasing the provision of Covered Services to an Enrollee upon the effective date of disenrollment; Notify EOHHS of any individual who is no longer eligible to remain enrolled in the One Care Plan per CMS enrollment guidance, in order for EOHHS to disenroll the individual. This includes where an Enrollee remains out of the Service Area or for whom residence in the One Care Plan Service Area cannot be confirmed for more than six (6) consecutive months; Not interfere with the Enrollee’s right to disenroll through threat, intimidation, pressure, or otherwise; Not request the disenrollment of any Enrollee due to an adverse change in the Enrollee’s health status or because of the Enrollee’s utilization of treatment plan, medical services, diminished mental capacity, or uncooperative or disruptive behavior resulting from his or her special needs. The Contractor, however, may submit a written request, accompanied by supporting documentation, to the Contract Management Team (CMT) to disenroll an Enrollee, for cause, for the following reason: The Enrollee’s continued enrollment seriously impairs the Contractor’s ability to furnish services to either this Enrollee or other Enrollees, provided the Enrollee’s behavior is determined to be unrelated to an adverse change in the Enrollee's health status, or because of the Enrollee's utilization of medical services, diminished mental capacity, or uncooperative or disruptive behavior resulting from his or her special needs.
