Madison State Hospital Visitation Updates Eric Holcomb, Governor State of Indiana Madison State Hospital Division of Mental Health and Addiction 711 GREEN ROAD MADISON, IN 47250-2199 812-265-2611 FAX: 812-265-7377 UPDATED: Tuesday, June 8, 2021 To our patients’ families and friends, Again, we would like to thank you for your patience and understanding with the suspensions and restrictions of visitations at Madison State Hospital during the Coronavirus pandemic. This action has been the norm for residential facilities since March of 2020 and has helped us to prevent and control infection spread in our congregate setting. As the peak of the pandemic seems to be behind us, Madison State Hospital will be expanding visitation opportunities for our patients to every other weekend. Visitations will be available in a scheduled rotation of each building. Attached are the “Visitation guidelines during coronavirus precautions” - which is unchanged, and the revised “Visitation schedule during coronavirus precautions.” These will help inform you of the new visitation procedures and expectations, as well as outline when your loved one’s unit is available for visits. There will continue to be pre-visitation screening questions that will be asked of you prior to and upon your arrival. We want to make you aware of these questions in advance in case your answers impact the ability of the visitation to take place. COVID-19 screening questions include: 1. In the last 72 hours, have you had a fever and/or taken medications for a fever? 2. In the last seven days, have you had symptoms of a lower respiratory illness? (cough, difficulty breathing) 3. In the past 14 days, have you been in close contact with a person known or suspected to have coronavirus or COVID-19? 4. Have you been diagnosed with COVID-19 in the last 14 days? Please understand if one visitor in a pair (not more than two visitors per patient) presents with a temperature (over 100.1) or positively answers any of the questions above, then both visitors will be denied entry for visitation. It is important to note that MSH may suspend visits with short notice in cases of localized outbreak, a rise in state and/or county metrics, or at the administrative staff’s discretion based on recommended health guidelines. You will continue to be able to review MSH’s COVID-19 status, as well as updates to the visitation limitations and expectations, through our webpage at https://www.in.gov/fssa/dmha/state-psychiatric-hospitals/madison-state-hospital/ or by calling the MSH COVID hotline at (812) 265-7475. We appreciate your efforts over the past 15 months to be a part of your loved one’s life. The pandemic has proven how resilient we are when we exercise best practices and protect our vulnerable citizens. Sincerely, Alicia Isaacs, MSW, LCSW Superintendent Madison State Hospital Indiana State Psychiatric Hospital Network Division of Mental Health and Addictions www.IN.gov/fssa Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action Employer Division of Mental Health and Addictions Madison State Hospital Visitation guidelines during coronavirus precautions Visitation requests will be scheduled as usual by contacting the social services specialist on your loved one’s unit. As usual, MSH prefers weekend visits so it does not conflict with active treatment scheduling for patients. Visits will be offered on Saturdays and Sundays of the weekend as assigned in the attached document. No food or drinks will be permitted during visits or brought for later consumption due to the removal of masks when eating and for infection control practices. Any food items brought for the visitation must be returned to the car before you enter the Administration Building. If your loved one needs additional items, it is strongly recommended that you mail packages at least one week in advance of your visit to allow for screening, cleaning and logging of the items. Please enclose a note indicating whether you want the items to be given during the visit or if they are to be distributed to your loved one once through processing. If not sent ahead of the scheduled visit, items will not be given at the time of the visit due to infection control processes. Please contact the unit social service specialist prior to sending any items ahead of your visitation or bringing any items during your scheduled visitation for your loved one to assure they can receive these items. Morning session (9-11 a.m.) and afternoon session (1-3 p.m.) last up to two hours each. Two visitors per patient per time slot. Visitors that have not been approved by the treatment team or do not have a valid release of information signed by the legal representative or patient prior to the visit will not be permitted to visit if they come with the scheduled family members/friends. Visitors are to arrive 30 minutes before the start of their scheduled visit time to allow for visitor processing. Visitor processing includes waiting at appropriately marked stations for check-in; temperature screening and symptom checklist; proper hand sanitizing; donning of face masks; escorting to the visitation area. Visitors must adhere to the marked lines in the Administration Building when undergoing visitor processing. This is to ensure at least 6-foot social distancing is safely occurring between visitors. MSH will supply masks and hand sanitizer for each visitor and patient for use during the visit. Visitors and patients must wear masks during the entire visit as well as maintain constant 6-foot social distancing between visitors and patients. This will be enforced by staff providing supervision during visits. At the conclusion of the visit, visitors will be escorted back to the Administration Building, properly doff their face mask, dispose of it in marked containers and use hand sanitizer before exiting the Administration Building. Administrative staff, security staff and those providing visit supervision must wear masks at all times. Visitation stations will be cleaned (using sani-wipes) by the staff providing supervision after each visit prior to the start of another visit. Division of Mental Health and Addictions - Madison State Hospital Visitation schedule during coronavirus precautions Visitation sessions are assigned in a rotation of Residential Buildings for infection control and contact tracing. In the event of a known COVID-19 case at MSH, all visitations will immediately be suspended.

  • 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.

The health institutions in different areas in Ottoman period were replaced by ‘Gureba hospitals’ in 19th century. The change in Anatolia was realised, after the declaration of the Republic and with the development of its economy, and lived in every area; hospital buildings were constructed first as ‘Gureba hospitals’ then as ‘country hospitals’ in Anatolia cities like Konya after the big cities like İstanbul, Ankara and İzmir.

  • Muffled Voices of the Past: History, Mental Health, and HIPAA
    INTERSECT: PERSPECTIVES IN TEXAS PUBLIC HISTORY 27 Muffled Voices of the Past: History, Mental Health, and HIPAA by Todd Richardson As I set out to write this article, I wanted to explore mental health and the devastating toll that mental illness can take on families and communities. Born out of my own personal experiences with my family, I set out to find historical examples of other people who also struggled to find treatment for themselves or for their loved ones. I know that when a family member receives a diagnosis of a chronic mental illness, their life changes drastically. Mental illness affects individuals and their loved ones in a variety of ways and is a grueling experience for all parties involved. When a family member’s mind crumbles, often that person— the brother or father or favorite aunt— is gone forever. Families, left helpless, watch while a person they care for exists in a state of constant anguish. I understood that my experiences were neither new nor unique. As a student of history, I knew that other families’ stories must exist somewhere in the recorded past. By looking back through time, I hoped to shine a light on the history of American mental health policy and perhaps to make the voices of those affected by mental illness heard. Doing so might bring some sense of justice and awareness to the lives of people with mental illness in the present in the same way that history allows other marginalized groups to make their voices heard and reshape the way people perceive the past.

  • Medicaid Payment Policy for Out-Of-State Hospital Services
    January 2020 Advising Congress on Medicaid and CHIP Policy Medicaid Payment Policy for Out-of-State Hospital Services Although most Medicaid enrollees obtain medical services within their state of residence, some enrollees seek care out-of-state under certain circumstances. Current Medicaid regulations describe four situations in which states must provide out-of-state coverage: • a medical emergency; • the beneficiary’s health would be endangered if required to travel to the state of residence; • services or resources are more readily available in another state; or, • it is general practice for recipients in a particular locality to use medical resources in another state (42 CFR § 431.52). States have broad flexibility to determine payment rates for services provided out of state and the processes that providers must follow to enroll as an out-of-state Medicaid provider. Specifically, many states pay out-of-state providers at lower rates than in-state providers and require out-of-state providers to undergo provider screening and enrollment even if the provider is already enrolled in Medicare or Medicaid in another state. Some providers have raised concerns that these policies may reduce providers’ willingness to serve out-of-state Medicaid beneficiaries and may result in delays in care while provider enrollment is processed (Manetto et al. 2018). Hospital services comprise the largest category of Medicaid spending and the only one for which we have reliable data about out-of-state service use. This brief reviews the use of out-of-state hospital services in Medicaid and the various ways that states pay out-of-state hospitals.

  • About the State Hospital
    The State Hospital ABOUT THE STATE HOSPITAL Who We Are The State Hospital is the only special security psychiatric hospital covering Scotland and Northern Ireland. Employing around 650 staff, the Hospital is located in Lanarkshire in central Scotland, midway between the cities of Edinburgh and Glasgow. It is one of four high secure hospitals in the UK. The other three high-secure, special hospitals are in England; Broadmoor, Rampton and Ashworth. The State Hospital is part of the NHS in Scotland, therefore functions within a different legal framework from these hospitals. Patients are treated in accommodation Patient Accommodation appropriate to their needs and in an environment that supports rehabilitation. There are 140 high-secure beds for male patients requiring maximum secure care: 12 beds specifically for patients with a learning disability. Wards take the form of four units (hubs and clusters) with each unit comprising three 12-bedded areas (i.e. 36 beds per hub). Note • In 1994 The State Hospital became part of the NHS in Scotland. • Although The State Hospital shares the same values, aims and challenges as the rest of the NHS in Scotland, it is unique because it has the dual responsibility of caring for very ill, detained patients as well as protecting them, the public and staff from harm. In other words, a twin aim: care and treatment, and public safety. • It is a totally smoke free environment. fact sheet • The women’s service closed in 2007/08 in line with the national plan for no high secure provision for females. What We Do The State Hospital provides assessment, treatment and care in conditions of special security for individuals with mental disorder who, because of their dangerous, violent or criminal propensities, cannot be cared for in any other setting.
