| Form 990, Part III, Question 1 (Continued) | CARESOURCE GEORGIA CO. IS A HEALTH MAINTENANCE ORGANIZATION LICENSED BY THE STATE OF GEORGIA AND SERVES MEMBERS THROUGH MARKETPLACE, MEDICAID, DUAL ELIGIBLE SPECIAL NEEDS PLANS, AND THE PEACHCARE FOR KIDS AND PLANNING FOR HEALTHY BABIES PROGRAMS. |
| Form 990, Part III, Question 4a (Continued) | The CareSource Group's primary activity for the last thirty-three years has been to provide nonprofit Medicaid, Medicare, and Marketplace health maintenance organization ("HMO") services. The mission of the CareSource group is to make a lasting difference in its members' lives by improving their health and well-being. The CareSource Group firmly adheres to this mission, which it terms as the organization's "heartbeat," by providing services that go beyond the delivery of medical benefits. CSGA began providing care to participants in its Medicaid HMO plan on July 1, 2017. CSGA serves individuals meeting the low-income thresholds for Medicaid eligibility. CSGA participates in the State of Georgia's Planning 4 Healthy Babies program, or P4HB, which is a demonstration waiver program for women meeting Medicaid income thresholds designed to help reduce the number of low-birth-weight babies born each year. Through the P4HB program, CSGA offers family planning services, healthcare coverage for certain pregnancy-related chronic conditions, and case management services to women at risk for a low-birth-weight delivery. CSGA launched a Marketplace plan in 2020, offering affordable individual and family plans tailored for any budget, as well as a Dual Eligible Special Needs Plan in 2021. In accordance with the CareSource Group's charitable mission, CSGA provides numerous programs and policies that encourage its members to obtain preventative and necessary medical care. Many of these programs are educational in nature and intended to make each member aware of their benefits. For example, upon enrollment, each member receives a handbook with an overall explanation of benefits. Members also receive periodic newsletters which include additional information on member benefits and reminders concerning preventative care. Additionally, CSGA contacts members throughout the year to further assist members in understanding their benefits. Finally, upon enrollment, each member will be automatically assigned both a primary care physician ("PCP") and primary dental provider ("PDP"). Assigning a PCP represents the first step in encouraging members to utilize their benefits. Also, because each PCP will be required to contact members to schedule Early and Periodic Screening, Diagnostic, and Treatment ("EPSDT") appointments for children covered by CSGA, it increases the likelihood that CSGA's youngest members receive the preventative care they need. Ensuring members have access to quality dental care is also essential, as dental care is closely linked to the overall health and well-being of members. CSGA seeks input from members about the services they receive and the impact of the enhanced benefits CSGA offers through a Member Advisory Committee. The Member Advisory Committee is convened for in-person and virtual meetings. The Committee meets quarterly and is comprised of members from across the state. They represent special populations that are served by the health plan. Their feedback supports the continuous improvement of benefits and services. CSGA leverages this committee to seek feedback about medical and enhanced benefits, programs like CareSource JobConnect or other social determinant initiatives, understanding the consumer experience, and how to improve marketing and communication. CSGA believes in delivering care management services that are whole person centric. CSGA's Integrated Care Management Program includes proactive and high-touch programs and services to ensure holistic care and support for members. The Integrated Care Management team ensures robust provider communication and partnership that is aimed at achieving optimal member outcomes, empowerment, and member/provider satisfaction. The Integrated Care Management program makes certain, whether needed services are carved-in or carved-out, communication and coordination with providers is integrated to enhance the member experience, ensure their needs are met, and assist the member in navigating the health system. The Integrated Care Management program maintains multiple avenues for members to access care management. CSGA proactively identifies and supports members with a mixed acuity of needs to promote self-management of their health; including members who prospectively need to address preventative health/wellness opportunities to those at high risk for complex, chronic, and costly physical health, behavioral health and psychosocial needs. CSGA utilizes various methods to identify members, stratify for appropriate prioritization of outreach, and comprehensively assess for complex needs. Additionally, the Integrated Care Management team facilitates referrals between internal and external stakeholders, including the member. CSGA's services are supported by evidence-based care that is integrated with other health services programs to achieve improved member outcomes, enhanced member satisfaction, and optimal resource utilization. In conjunction with Care4U and Care Transitions, CSGA relies on Medication Therapy Management ("MTM") Path to coordinate its members' medication usage. CSGA's MTM Path will collect data on all medications that a member is currently taking. CSGA runs this data through several clinical algorithms to identify possible issues related to cost, safety, and over-utilization. Any issues that are identified are shared with pharmacists, who then provide members with face-to-face counseling. This individualized review of each member's medication usage has been instrumental in improving member health, as evidenced by a reduced number of hospitalizations and emergency department visits. CSGA, along with other members of the CareSource Group, are still among the few Medicaid managed care organizations in the country that voluntarily provide such a comprehensive review of members' prescription medications. To operate its plan, CSGA continues to build a high-performing network that yields efficiencies in the delivery of care. This provider network relies heavily upon federally qualified health centers ("FQHC"). FQHCs are generally health care providers that have been recognized by the federal government as providing care to populations that have limited access to medical treatment due to conditions such as poverty and geographic location. The main purpose of the FQHC Program is to enhance the provision of primary care services in underserved urban and rural communities. CSGA is accredited through National Committee for Quality Assurance ("NCQA") for its Medicaid plan and its Qualified Health Plan ("QHP"). NCQA accreditation is the most comprehensive evaluation in the industry and the only assessment that bases results on clinical performance and consumer experience. CSGA focuses on prevention with a goal of improving member health, the quality of health care services received, and accessibility of health care services for its members. Many of CSGA's activities improve efficiency in the delivery of Medicaid benefits, resulting in an improvement of its members' overall health. CSGA places a considerable emphasis on membership education through wellness plans and other individual communications. Wellness rewards are available for kids, adults, and pregnant women and babies. CSGA provides dental and vision benefits to all members, including those over the age of twenty-one. Additionally, CSGA provides members with free access to a nursing hotline twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week. These nurses review a member's symptoms, offer guidance on when to seek medical care, explain any conditions with which a member has been recently diagnosed, provide education on over-the-counter medications, and help members prepare a list of questions prior to a visit with their doctor. This triaging of care both improves the efficiency of the Medicaid program and reduces unnecessary hospitalizations and emergency department visits. CSGA aims to remove poverty as a barrier to achieving good health, and CSGA provides a number of programs designed to meet challenges that are specific to individuals with low incomes. One program is Transportation. Because low-income individuals frequently have difficulty keeping medical appointments due to a lack of transportation, CSGA will augment their transportation benefit. Transportation assistance is a value-added benefit to the CareSource Life Services program. CSGA will provide rides to employment and education related activities. In 2022, CSGA offered rides to local grocery retailers for curbside pickup and to community organizations for food distribution events. CSGA provides additional enhanced benefits to members that are above and beyond required benefits defined by state or federal agencies. These benefits include club memberships, health and wellness items, rewards programs, and social determinant support. Together, these enhanced benefits provide CSGA members additional program benefits in order to make a lasting difference in members' lives by improvin |
| Form 990, Part VI, Section A, Question 6 | CareSource is the sole member of CareSource Georgia Co. CareSource is recognized as exempt from federal income taxation under Internal Revenue Code ("IRC") Section 501(c)(3). |
| Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Question 11B | The Form 990 was provided to the following individuals for review prior to the time of filing: The organization's Audit Committee and each voting member of the governing body; the CEO, CFO, and VP Treasury; the internal Tax Department and an outside CPA firm; and internal general counsel and outside legal counsel. |
| Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Question 12C | Annually, each director, principal officer, and member of a committee with board-delegated powers ("interested person") shall confirm that they have received a copy of the CareSource Conflicts of Interest policy and have read, understood, and agree to comply with the policy. Interested Persons have an obligation to immediately report any Conflicts of Interest (including any relationships, positions, or circumstances that could contribute to a Conflict of Interest). All relevant information reported through the Conflict of Interest Policy will be sent to the Chairman of the Board for review. If the Interested Person with the Conflict of Interest is the Chairman of the Board, then the required disclosure must be provided to the Chief Legal Officer of CareSource. If it is not entirely clear whether a Conflict of Interest exists, then the person with the potential conflict must disclose the circumstances to CareSource's Chief Legal Officer. The Chief Legal Officer will consult with the Corporation's Corporate Compliance Officer or the Chairman of the Board to determine whether there exists a Conflict of Interest that is subject to this policy. Before Board action or other action by the organization on a Transaction that involves a Conflict of Interest, an Interested Person who knows he or she has a Conflict of Interest must have disclosed to the Board all facts material to the Conflict of Interest. The Chairman of the Board may postpone Board or other corporate action on a Transaction until the Interested Person provides written information relating to the Conflict of Interest. An Interested Person who knows he or she has a Conflict of Interest must not participate in the Board's discussion of the Transaction except to disclose material facts and respond to questions. The Interested Person must not attempt to influence the Board's action on the Transaction, either at or outside the meeting. Prior to voting, the Board must be given an opportunity to discuss the Transaction without the person who has the Conflict of Interest being present. A Transaction involving a Conflict of Interest may be approved by the Board if the material facts as to the Transaction and the Conflict of Interest are fully disclosed or known to the Board and the Board in good faith determines after reasonable investigation that (a) the Board is aware of all material facts concerning the Transaction and the Interested person's interest in the Transaction; (b) the organization is entering into the Transaction for its own benefit; (c) the Transaction is fair and reasonable as to the organization; and (d) the organization could not have obtained a more advantageous arrangement with reasonable effort under the circumstances. The Person with the Conflict of Interest must not vote on the Transaction and must not be present in the room when the vote is taken. |
