6 Illinois Breast and Cervical Cancer Screening Program The Illinois Breast and Cervical Cancer Program (IBCCP) offers free mammograms, breast exams, pelvic exams and Pap tests to all uninsured Illinois women regardless of income. Since the IBCCP launched in October 1995, the program has screened more than 182,976 women. The Department of Healthcare and Family Services covers treatment for most women diagnosed with breast or cervical cancer under IBCCP. More than 7,500 women have been referred for treatment (includes RTTA).

7 IBCCP and Medicaid Expansion 77% of IBCCP caseload is eligible Exact # s migrating are difficult to attain at this point in time because: Lead agencies are actively enrolling We cannot know until our clients drop out of the program Working with Medicaid to capture enrollees Variation in enrollment across counties

8 ACA Migration Efforts Surveyed agencies to assess ACA preparation and needs 31 out of 35 Agencies responded & identified educational needs as most important at that time Hosted a keynote session on ACA at our annual conference Provided direction to 35 Leads at our annual meeting Ongoing collaboration with 35 Lead agencies throughout the State to disseminate information on ACA 70 phone calls to collect migration information and provide support

9 Lead Agency Migration Response Significant variation across counties on migration efforts with some counties seeing no impact and others reporting drastic impact Agencies are reporting the following related to ACA enrollment: Women believe they are automatically enrolled so they are not actively enrolling Women are choosing not to enroll because they can t afford the deductible/co pay Women are confused about the process and are afraid to give out personal information

10 Lead Agencies, Navigators and ACA 32 agencies have navigators, 3 refer to local navigators Agencies report a fair amount of time is spent in educating and connecting clients to ACA Preliminary information suggests that navigators reach clients by: sending information packets to clients who are due for screenings, sometimes following up with phone calls directly asking clients coming in for services whether they have applied or if they are going to apply for ACA

11 Need for IBCCP Undocumented women Women may opt out of ACA for various reasons, including deductibles, lack of knowledge related to medical systems, access to technology Continue to work with our Medicaid State Partners for answers

12 FP National Implication IOM recommended that OFP develop and implement a multiyear evidence based strategic plan. IOM also made specific recommendations to improve program management and administration. For example, IOM recommended that: methods of allocating funds be examined and improved, drug purchasing sources be consolidated, clinics administrative burden be reduced, a single method be adopted for determining criteria for eligible services, transparency be increased, workforce needs be assessed, and program guidelines be evidence based

13 Family Planning Updates FY15 Family Planning Grant Application Conducting research on grant based systems versus fee for service systems; Staffing update Reviewing how ACA impacts providers; Reaching out to providers who do not have EMR records; Reviewing various types of preconception and interconception education materials; and Reviewing of Ahlers reports to ensure that we are on target with our clinical services.

14 Teen Pregnancy Address rural teen pregnancy and STI rates Staff updates Comprehensive Sexual Education (emphasize parent teen communication) Look at barriers in Family Planning Clinics Motivational Interviewing

15 Regionalized Perinatal Network Establishment of a system of performance measures, targets, and goals to improve public health practices Reevaluation of the current process and system of designating perinatal levels of care in the state s maternity hospitals Development and implementation of referral and transport policies and mechanisms to ensure that every mother and newborn receives risk appropriate care Support of culturally humble and linguisticallyappropriate care

16 There are so many MCH Programs, Why is Title V Special? Title V was established in 1935, longest standing public health legislation in the US Only national program accountable for comprehensive systems of preventative, primary care and specialty services for the MCH Population 16

17 MCH Programs Must Anticipate issues and problems and advocate for this population; Assure continuity of care across the life cycle; Assure full services to those at increased risk, or with special health care needs; and Focus on the physical, mental and emotional health of all women and children 17

18 Triple Aim Better Care Healthy People/Healthy Communities Affordable Care 18

19 The Title V MCH Block Grant Access to prenatal care Health Equity Birth defects, infections like cytomegalovirus Maternal medical conditions that affect pregnancy like diabetes, obesity, and hypertension Unnecessary C sections and labor induction Premature birth and low birthweight babies Breastfeeding Infant mortality, including infant sleep related death Perinatal depression 19

58 Qualitative We will be scheduling community focus groups within our seven health regions. The information collected from community focus groups will guide Needs Assessment priorities. Discussions will be facilitated by trained professionals from the community so participants feel comfortable with voicing their opinions. We will also include note takers, list common concerns and empower participants to determine which needs are most important. Upon conclusion, participants and the OWHFS staff will come together to discuss how to effectively maintain communication so we can continue to receive community input for the Needs Assessment.
