School-Based Health Centers. School-based health centers (SBHCs) provide general, primary health care services to school- aged children. The State recognizes these centers as increasingly important providers of primary health care, especially in rural communities which face shortages of primary care physicians. BMS encourages the MCO to Contract with or develop cooperative agreements with SBHCs. Such agreements would recognize the MCO as the medical home for the child, define the process for referring students to MCO network providers, spell out procedures for sharing medical information between the SBHCs and the MCO, and provide for reimbursement of the SBHC by the MCO. The MCO is encouraged, but not required, to Contract with SBHCs.

Right from the Start (RFTS) is a West Virginia State program aimed at improving early access to prenatal care and lowering infant mortality, and improved pregnancy outcomes. The RFTS eligibility criteria and services provided are available from BMS. The MCO is encouraged, but not required, to contract with RFTS providers. However, if the MCO does not contract with RFTS providers, the MCO must provide the same level and types of services as those currently available through the RFTS program. This includes access to multidisciplinary care. BMS will monitor compliance with this requirement; if the MCO fails to satisfy these requirements, it will be required to reimburse the traditional Right from the Start providers at the Medicaid fee rate.

School-Based Health Centers. The ideal health care delivery system is difficult to develop since different cultures and environments have varying perceptions and standards of health [29, 30]. However, evidence indicates that many schools and early care learning centers in poorer neighborhoods throughout the United States have similarities in the demographics and health statuses of the children and families served at these centers [31]. Furthermore, research shows that school nurses could easily assume the role as providers for the health care delivery systems since they are already vital in identifying health concerns in children, especially for children who lack consistent primary care providers, insurance, and other health care resources [34, 36, 37]. These characteristics make schools an ideal location to incorporate health care delivery systems that use school nurses as integral components. School based programs not only allow for children to visit a provider without requiring parents to take off work, proving to be cost-effective interventions, but also utilize the relationships already built in to the community, among teachers, school staff, and children, creating a natural support system to help manage any health concerns the child faces [9, 33, 35]. For these reasons the number of school-based health centers (SBHC) has been increasing over the past decade, with the national number of SBHC growing by more than 20% from 2011 to 2014 [32, 33, 34]. In fact, the state of Georgia reported having 20 SBHCs in the 2016-2017 National School-Based Health Care Census with four programs located in the city of Atlanta [32]. This growth has encouraged researchers to further improve these school-based health care delivery systems using a school nurse as the health navigator of these SBHC [2, 9, 23, 27, 29, 45,
