Maximus Enhances Healthcare Services Through Expanded Contract
Maximus Enhances Healthcare Services Through New Contract
TYSONS, Va.-- Maximus, a premier provider of government services worldwide, has proudly announced an expanded contract with North Dakota’s Health and Human Services (HHS). This initiative aims to deliver timely, accurate, and reliable clinical determinations through comprehensive assessments tailored to meet the diverse needs of various populations.
Strengthening Clinical Determinations in North Dakota
Since 2003, Maximus has partnered with North Dakota to refine and improve screening processes. This collaboration ensures that individuals served through Medicaid Long-term Services and Supports (LTSS) or similar services receive essential care in appropriate settings tailored to their specific needs.
Introducing Level of Care Assessments for Children
In light of North Dakota’s transition to a unified assessment tool for Children’s Treatment Services, Maximus is set to implement Level of Care (LOC) determinations for children under the age of 21. These children typically face behavioral and psychiatric needs while seeking admission to treatment foster care or out-of-home residential treatment facilities. Additionally, Maximus will continue its commitment to provide Preadmission Screening and Resident Review (PASRR) and LOC assessments for older adults and individuals with disabilities pursuing Medicaid LTSS services.
Innovative Processes and Efficient Solutions
“In partnership with HHS, we’ve implemented process efficiencies and advanced technology that empower us to serve North Dakotans more effectively. Our assessments are designed to cater to the needs of individuals while promoting the state’s evolving objectives,” stated Christa Ballew, Senior Managing Director for Clinical Services at Maximus. “We believe the introduction of a single level of care assessment tool for children with specific requirements will streamline the referral process. This innovation aims to spare families the burden of navigating multiple assessment processes.”
Aligning with State Goals for Quality Care
To realize the objectives outlined in this contract, Maximus’ efforts will align closely with the state’s commitment to ensuring individuals receive the correct services promptly. This approach also focuses on equipping providers with the information required to deliver care efficiently, all while employing evidence-based practices to guide decision-making relating to the suitable level of care.
