Special Needs Plan Model of Care Attestation

What is the Model of Care?

  • Per Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), as provided under section 1859(f)(7) of the Social Security Act, every SNP must have a Model of Care (MOC) approved by the National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA).
  • The MOC provides the basic framework under which the Special Needs Plan (SNP) will meet the needs of each of its enrollees.
  • The MOC is a vital quality improvement tool and essential component for ensuring that the unique needs of each enrollee are identified by the SNP and addressed through the plan’s care management practices.
  • The MOC provides the foundation for promoting SNP quality, care management, and care coordination processes.

Who is required to take the Model of Care Training?

  • CMS requires initial and annual MOC training for all Special Needs Plan employed and contracted staff that perform any job functions for the SNP population.
  • CMS requires initial and annual MOC training for all network and out-of-network providers who provide care to Special Need Plan beneficiaries on a routine basis.

Please review the Model of Care training and complete the attestation to acknowledge understanding of these requirements and care coordination responsibilities of those providing care to Plan members.
