0010|                           A JOINT MEMORIAL
    |
0011|     REQUESTING THAT BEHAVIORAL HEALTH SERVICES BE EXCLUDED FROM
    |
0012|     MEDICAID MANAGED CARE PROPOSALS.
    |
0013|     
    |
0014|          WHEREAS, consumers, family members, advocates and
    |
0015|     providers were excluded in the development phase of the
    |
0016|     proposed medicaid managed care plan as it relates to behavioral
    |
0017|     health services; and
    |
0018|          WHEREAS, there has been a history of success using
    |
0019|     nonmedical, community-based programs for behavioral health
    |
0020|     services, and the medicaid managed care proposal that includes
    |
0021|     behavioral health services does not reflect this success; and
    |
0022|          WHEREAS, the medicaid managed care plan proposed by the
    |
0023|     human services department, as it relates to behavioral health
    |
0024|     services, may fail and could cause the entire managed care
    |
0025|     proposal to fail; and
    |
0001|          WHEREAS, the proposed medicaid managed care proposal is
    |
0002|     and has been repeatedly opposed by consumers, advocates and
    |
0003|     providers in New Mexico;
    |
0004|          NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE
    |
0005|     STATE OF NEW MEXICO that behavioral health services and funds
    |
0006|     be  removed from the medicaid request for proposals, the
    |
0007|     initial managed care contracts and the federal waiver proposal;
    |
0008|     and
    |
0009|          BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the human services department
    |
0010|     appoint, by no later than May 1, 1997, a task force of
    |
0011|     consumers, advocates and providers to develop a plan to manage
    |
0012|     behavioral health services and funds that will fully integrate
    |
0013|     medicaid and state general funds, reflect managed care
    |
0014|     principles and administration, ensure full linkages to primary
    |
0015|     care services and assure maximum participation of consumers,
    |
0016|     family members and advocates in the development, implementation
    |
0017|     and oversight of the managed care system as it applies to
    |
0018|     behavioral health services; and
    |
0019|          BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that this plan be responsive to the
    |
0020|     treatment and rehabilitation needs and concerns of adults with
    |
0021|     mental illness or substance abuse related disorders and
    |
0022|     children and youth with, or at risk of, serious emotional or
    |
0023|     behavioral disturbances, neurobiological disorders or substance
    |
0024|     abuse disorders; and
    |
0025|          BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that this plan be designed for full
    |
0001|     implementation no sooner than July 1, 2000; and 
    |
0002|          BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the human services department
    |
0003|     and the task force it appoints present the plan that is
    |
0004|     developed to the appropriate interim legislative committee by
    |
0005|     August 15, 1997; and
    |
0006|          BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that copies of this memorial be
