Mercy Maricopa Integrated Care Cultural Competence Plan FY 2014-2015 GSA 6 CC Lead/Administrator: Teresa Peña Page 1

Introduction Mercy Maricopa Integrated Care believes that as our community continues to grow and becomes more ethnically diverse, the care that we provide is constantly evolving and becoming more complex. In our system of care, providers are encouraged to become more culturally competent, as well as to recognize the importance of health literacy. This means to be able to understand different cultures, especially those of our members, and how they view and access services. That means that the care our providers deliver should be in accordance with recipient s race, color, creed, gender, religion, age, national origin, preferred language and respecting their cultural beliefs, sexual preference, as well as traditional healing practices. In the same way, paying special attention to cultural issues for integrated care models is a high priority and one Mercy Maricopa takes very seriously. Addressing member s concerns according to their literacy and culture, as well as providing language access services and culturally competent care are the priorities of Mercy Maricopa s Cultural Competence department. To achieve this, Mercy Maricopa has developed a Cultural competence Plan that addresses the diverse needs of our system, fosters internal and external collaboration, and ensures provision of high quality language services at no cost to the member. Additionally, Mercy Maricopa ensures member materials are available in the preferred language of the individual and are easily understood. Explain your goals and objectives related to the following: Education and Training: Collaborate in the development and monitoring of trainings for CC, CLAS and LEP to ensure and increase CC awareness, including underrepresented and underserved populations. Collaborate with Training Department to create and implement mandatory, refresher, and elective trainings for RBHA and Provider staff. To increase the number of individuals trained on diverse populations. To increase awareness of needs and gaps related to diverse populations in our system Culturally Competent Services/Care: Mercy Maricopa believes the provision of high quality services requires fostering an environment of collaboration and respect for differences, preferences, language needs and cultural backgrounds within our communities. Therefore, the mission of Mercy Maricopa s Cultural Competence Department is to support the provider network in achieving cultural competence throughout all levels of their operations as evidenced by culturally and linguistically responsive programs that demonstrate positive health outcomes. Language Access Services (Interpretation and Translation Services): In collaboration with our finances and procurement departments, a robust array of language services providers will be engaged via a language services liaison to ensure the linguistic need of our service area are met. Procurement department will be tasked with developing a contracting system in which capacity and qualifications of potential language vendors are addressed and verified. Currently, the language vendors previously utilized are being considered as the primary candidates in order to ensure continuity of care and respecting member preference. Additionally, rigorous training pertinent to the RBHA system and reporting mechanisms are being put in place as part of the contracting process. Family-Centered Care: In collaboration with the Children s system of care, Mercy Maricopa is ensuring that culturally and linguistically appropriate services are delivered to families that come in touch with our system of care. Cultural Competence Department and OIFA, as well as the Children s System of Care have partnered and continue to partner in the planning an execution of Spanish only family forums, as well as ensuring full family participation in their preferred language and respecting their cultural needs and beliefs. Describe your method(s) for assessing and evaluating throughout the GSA: Cultural diversity among service providers Mercy Maricopa maintains quality improvement at the core of its operations. Input is received via diverse stakeholder sources, including the member satisfaction survey and provider monitoring results. Additionally, demographic data is a key component in the decision making of strategy creation and implementation. To this effect, data such as penetration rates, language utilization information and Data Demographic are utilized and analyzed on a regular CC Lead/Administrator: Teresa Peña Page 2

basis. CLAS standards monitoring data is obtained and analyzed on a monthly basis and support and technical assistance are provided as necessary to contracted providers in need. Additional resources for evaluating performance are but not limited to: Language Services report CLAS standards monitoring Performance Improvement Plans Systems of Care monitoring Performance thresholds Data Demographics information Potential service needs among diverse populations Information on these areas will be monitored for needs and gaps in the system and utilized to enhance policies and procedures to ensure compliance with Federal, State and local mandates for cultural competence. Outline your process to identify: Service gaps and/or needs In partnership with the Quality Management department, Mercy Maricopa Cultural competence will monitor compliance via monthly audits of contracted providers. These audit result shall inform the analysis of needs and gaps within the system and addressed according to the type of need. Actions to be taken to correct identified deficiencies Technical assistance is offered to providers on a regular basis and via an open door policy. That is, providers can call at any time, either in preparation for audit visits or to address audit findings. Furthermore, the advisory committees are another venue to discuss system needs and address them by making recommendations and assist in the creation and review of corrective action plans to contracted providers and also for the RBHA to self-regulate and create and implement corrective measures. Describe your processes to adhere to the Federally-mandated CLAS Standards throughout the GSA: Implementing During FY 2014-2015, Mercy Maricopa will roll out implementation of all 15 CLAS standards. The process to achieve this is to closely work with the quality management team and providers. The goal is to provide technical assistance and education to contracted providers on the revised standards and assist them in identifying implementation strategies, mainly based on the OCA results. Monitoring Ensure system s adherence to federally mandated CLAS standards. To this effect, Mercy Maricopa Cultural competence will collaborate with Mercy Maricopa QM department to ensure needs and gaps are addressed with providers who score low in CLAS standards compliance. This will happen by analyzing data obtained during record review, utilizing a review tool created by both departments Mercy Maricopa also ensures system adherence to federally mandated CLAS standards. To this effect, Mercy Maricopa Cultural Competence will collaborate with Quality Management to address needs and gaps detected in the system. Technical assistance will be provided to contracted providers who score below the threshold for CLAS standards compliance. This will happen by analyzing data obtained during record review. Tracking The cultural competence plan is constantly monitored, and analyzed on a regular basis. All the sections in the plan are monitored and updated as needed during these reporting periods. This constant monitoring allows for open communication and feedback channels with collaborating departments and earlier detection and resolution of arising issues within the system. CC Lead/Administrator: Teresa Peña Page 3

Community stakeholder input, including providers and service recipients, and the Cultural Competence CLAS Advisory Committee are additional channels to obtain system evaluation and feedback and allow for adjustment and modifications to enhance service delivery. Member satisfaction survey regarding the respect for language and cultural needs is another way to evaluate and monitor system effectiveness. CC Lead/Administrator: Teresa Peña Page 4
