| An External Quality Review (EQR) of the 18 prepaid inpatient health plans (PIHPs) providing the managed behavioral health care benefit to Michigan Medicaid recipients was conducted by Health Services Advisory Group, Inc.

| The Compliance Standard scores, each element within the eight standards was evaluated and scored as Met, Substantially Met, Partially Met, Not Met, or Not Applicable, with the exception that Substantially Met was not applicable to the Access and Availability standard. The overall score for each of the six scored standards was determined by totaling the number of Met (value: 1 point), Substantially Met (0.75 points), Partially Met (0.50 points), Not Met (0.00 points), and Not Applicable (0.00 points) elements for the standard, then dividing the summed score by the total number of applicable elements for that standard. The same methodology was used to determine the overall performance rating for each PIHP and the statewide scores, summing the values of the ratings and dividing that sum by the total number of applicable elements. | ||||||||||
| The Performance Validation Measure scores are the percentage of twelve indicators that were graded as 'Fully Compliant'. | ||||||||||
| The Performance Improvement Project (PIP) Validation scores are the percentage of Critical Elements Met. MDCH required the PIHPs to initiate a PIP on Performance Indicator #3: percentage of new persons receiving face to face assessment within 14 days of non-emergent assessment. Standard 95% | ||||||||||
| * The PIHP had met the performance standard for the State Mandated PIP and was allowed to select a different topic. | ||||||||||
