  • DC Health Systems Plan 2017
    DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA HEALTH SYSTEMS PLAN 2017 NOTICE OF NON-DISCRIMINATION In accordance with the D.C. Human Rights Act of 1977, as amended, D.C. Code section 2.1401.01 et seq., the District of Columbia does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, religion, national origin, sex, age, marital status, personal appearance, sexual orientation, family responsibilities, matriculation, political affiliation, disability, source of income, or place of residence or business. Discrimination in violation of the Act will not be tolerated. Violators will be subject to disciplinary action. Published July, 2017 Dear Residents: Upon taking office in 2015, my Administration focused on improving health outcomes for all residents, recognizing that all government policies—from education and housing, to economic development and transportation—impact the health and wellness of our communities. Every Washingtonian, regardless of where they live, should have the ability to live a healthy and fulfilling life in our nation’s capital. This Health Systems Plan will serve as a guide for all stakeholders as they implement initiatives aimed at strengthening Washington DC’s health system to improve the overall health status of residents by ad- dressing social determinants of health and promoting health equity. Through this plan, we will ensure that public and private agencies throughout DC have the direction they need to make sound investments and implement initiatives that will improve the health and well-being of residents across all eight wards. I am proud of the work we have done thus far. In 2016, the number of newly diagnosed HIV cases in Washington, DC decreased by 52 percent to 347.

  • Balance Billing Protection for Out-Of-Network Services
    Form 405-A (eff. 1/2021) BALANCE BILLING PROTECTION FOR OUT-OF-NETWORK SERVICES Starting January 1, 2021, Virginia state law may protect you from “balance billing” when you get: • EMERGENCY SERVICES from an out-of-network hospital, or an out-of-network doctor or other medical provider at a hospital; or • NON-EMERGENCY SURGICAL OR ANCILLARY SERVICES from an out-of-network lab or health care professional at an in-network hospital, ambulatory surgical center or other health care facility. What is balance billing? • An “IN-NETWORK” health care provider has signed a contract with your health insurance plan. Providers who haven’t signed a contract with your health plan are called “OUT-OF-NETWORK” providers. • In-network providers have agreed to accept the amounts paid by your health plan after you, the patient, has paid for all required cost sharing (copayments, coinsurance and deductibles for covered services). • But, if you get all or part of your care from out-of-network providers, you could be billed for the difference between what your plan pays to the provider and the amount the provider bills you. This is called “balance billing.” • The new Virginia law prevents certain balance billing, but it does not apply to all health plans. Applies May Apply Does Not Apply o Fully insured managed care plans, o Employer-based coverage o Health plans issued to an including those bought through o Health plans issued to an employer association outside Virginia HealthCare.gov outside Virginia o Health plans that do not use a o The state employee health plan o Short-term limited duration plans network of providers o Group health plans that opt-in o Limited benefit plans How can I find out if I am protected? Be sure to check your plan documents or contact your health plan to find out if you are protected by this law.

  • Tool 1. Scenarios Guide
    Tool 1. Scenarios Guide Tool 1. Scenarios Guide The following 18 scenarios were developed specifically for the privacy and security project to provide a standardized context for discussing organization-level business practices across all states and territories. The scenarios represent a wide range of purposes for the exchange of health information (eg, treatment, public health, biosurveillance, payment, research, marketing) across a broad array of organizations involved in health information exchange and actors within those organizations. The product of the “guided or focused” discussions will be a database of organization-level business practices that will form the basis for the assessment of variation upon which all other work will be based. Each scenario describes a health information exchange (HIE) within a given context to ensure that we cover most of the areas in which we expect to find barriers. Clearly, these scenarios do not cover the universe of exchanges. However, the purposes and conditions represented should be more than adequate to get the discussions of privacy and security policy moving forward. Exhibit 1 shows a mapping of stakeholder organizations identified in the HIE scenarios. A shaded box containing an “X” with some additional text indicates stakeholders that are explicitly identified in the scenario. A yellow box with no text indicates a stakeholder group that could conceivably weigh in on a scenario. For example, Scenario 1: Patient Care Scenario A, involves an exchange between the emergency room in Hospital A and an out-of- state hospital, Hospital B. Both the requesting and releasing organizations are hospitals, regardless of the actors that may be representing those organizations in the work group meetings, which may include physicians, nurses, health information management professionals, and others.
