[45 Pa.B. 3428]
[Saturday, June 27, 2015]
The purpose of this notice is to announce the Department of Human Services (Department) proposed Fee Schedule Rates for Targeted Service Management and select services funded through the Consolidated and Person/Family Directed Support waivers as well as the Department-established fees for residential ineligible services effective July 1, 2015. These proposed Fee Schedule Rates also serve as the Department-established fees under 55 Pa. Code § 4300.115(a) (relating to department established fees) for base-funded services managed through county programs for individuals with an intellectual disability under the Mental Health and Intellectual Disability Act of 1966 (50 P. S. §§ 4101—4704), 55 Pa. Code Chapter 4300 (relating to county mental health and mental retardation fiscal manual) and 55 Pa. Code Chapter 51 (relating to Office of Developmental Programs home and community-based services). The proposed Fee Schedule Rates and Department-established Fees effective July 1, 2015, are unchanged from the final rates established for Fiscal Year (FY) 2014-2015.
Fee Schedule Rates
The Fee Schedule Rates are identified under the following categories: Select Community-Based Services and Agency with Choice/Financial Management Services (AWC/FMS), including benefit allowance and excluding benefit allowance.
The Select Community-Based Services include behavior support, companion, home and community habilitation unlicensed, homemaker/chore, licensed day habilitation (adult training), prevocational services, therapy (physical, occupational, speech and language, individual behavior therapy, group behavior therapy and visual/mobility), nursing, older adult day, supplemental habilitation, additional individualized staffing, supported employment, supports broker, supports coordination, targeted service management, transitional work and all waiver-funded respite care services, excluding respite camp which is a vendor service.
The AWC/FMS (including and excluding benefit allowance) include home and community habilitation unlicensed, companion services, unlicensed in-home and out-of-home respite, supported employment, supports broker and homemaker/chore services. There are two separate tables for AWC/FMS: one provides the Fee Schedule Rate including a benefit allowance and the other provides the Fee Schedule Rate excluding a benefit allowance. The benefit allowance is provided as an option for the managing employer to include benefits such as disability insurance, life insurance, retirement savings and paid time off to the support service worker.
The Office of Developmental Programs (ODP) will be using the proposed Fee Schedule Rates to support claims processing in the Provider Reimbursement and Operations Management Information System in electronic format (PROMISe). A notice will be published announcing the final Fee Schedule Rates once a budget bill is passed and enacted for FY 2015-2016.
Enhanced Communication Services
The Enhanced Communication Services modifier, U1, is available for the following Consolidated Waiver fee schedule services: behavioral support; companion; supported employment; transitional work; prevocational services; home and community habilitation unlicensed; licensed day habilitation (adult training); therapy (physical, occupational, speech and language, individual behavior therapy, group behavior therapy and visual/mobility); nursing; older adult day; supplemental habilitation; additional individualized staffing; supports broker and all waiver-funded respite care services, excluding respite camp which is a vendor service.
Enhanced Communication Services can be provided to individuals who meet all of the following:
• Enrolled in the Consolidated Waiver.
• Deaf.
• Determined to need services that are provided by staff who are proficient in sign language.
Providers who wish to receive the Enhanced Communication Services Rate must be approved to do so by the Department. Requests for enhanced rates should be directed to the Deaf Services Coordinator at RA-ODPDeafServices@pa.gov.
Department-Established Fees
The Department-established fees represent a per-person, per-day net fee based on the size of the home (such as a 1-individual home or 2-individual home) and type of home (defined by licensed, unlicensed or family living home). The fee does not include consideration for payment by the participant, as it is the provider's responsibility to collect that portion of payment from the participant.
The ODP will be using the proposed Department-established fees to support claims processing in PROMISe. A notice will be published announcing the final Department-established fees once a budget bill is passed and enacted for FY 2015-2016.

Fiscal Impact
It is anticipated that there will not be an additional cost to the Commonwealth in FY 2015-2016 and subsequent years as a result of continuing the established FY 2014-2015 MA Fee Schedule Rates in FY 2015-2016. The amount of funding available for this program is dependent upon the funds appropriated by the General Assembly for the forthcoming fiscal year; therefore, until a budget bill is passed and enacted, the fiscal impact associated with this notice is estimated.
