Attn: Contracting Officer
3.13 CONTRACTOR'S NATIONAL LABOR RELATIONS BOARD (NLRB) DECLARATION
The Contractor, by signing this agreement, does swear under penalty of
perjury that, no more than one final unappealable finding of contempt of
court by a federal court has been issued against Contractor within the
immediately preceding two-year period because of the Contractor's failure
to comply with an order of a federal court which orders the Contractor to
comply with an order of the NLRB.
3.14 TERM
The Contract will become effective April 2, 1996 and will continue in full
force and effect through March 31, 2002 subject to the provisions of
Article V, Sections 5.2 and 5.10 because the State has currently
appropriated and available for encumbrance only funds to cover costs
through June 30, 1996.
The term of the Contract consists of the following three periods: 1) The
Implementation Period will extend from April 2, 1996; 2) The Operations
Period will extend from October 2, 1996, subject to the termination
provisions of Section 3.17, Termination and subject to the limitation
provisions of Article V, Payment Provisions Section 5.2; and 3) The
Turnover/Phaseout Period will extend from October 1, 2001 through March 31,
2002, subject to the provisions of Section 3.15, Contract Extension, in
which case the Turnover/Phaseout Period will apply to the six (6) month
period beginning the first day after the end of the Operations Period of
the extension.
The Operations Period will commence subject to DHS acceptance of the
Contractor's readiness to begin the Operations Period.
19
▇▇▇▇▇▇ Medical Centers 95-23637
Article III
3.15 CONTRACT EXTENSION
DHS will have the exclusive option to extend the term of the Contract
during the last twelve (12) months of the Contract, as determined by the
original termination date or by a new termination date if an extension
option has been exercised. DHS may invoke up to three (3) separate
extensions of one (1) year each. The Contractor will be given at least nine
(9) months prior written notice of DHS' decision on whether or not it will
exercise this option to extend the Contract.
The Contractor will notify DHS of its intent to accept or reject the
extension within five (5) State working days of the receipt of the notice
from DHS.
3.16 TURNOVER AND PHASEOUT REQUIREMENTS
DHS will withhold an amount equal to 10% or one million dollars
($1,000,000), whichever is greater unless provided otherwise by the
Financial Security agreement, from the capitation payment of the last month
of the Operations Period until all activities required during the Turnover
and Phaseout Period are completed.
If all Turnover and Phaseout activities are completed by the end of the
Turnover and Phaseout Period, the withhold will be paid to the Contractor.
If the Contractor fails to meet any requirement(s) by the end of the
Turnover and Phaseout Period, DHS will deduct the costs of the remaining
activities proportionately from the withhold amount and continue to
withhold payment until all activities are completed.
3.16.1 OBJECTIVES FOR TURNOVER AND PHASEOUT PERIOD
The objective of the Turnover Period is to ensure that, at the termination
of this Contract, the orderly transfer of necessary data and history
records is made from the Contractor to DHS or to a successor Contractor.
The orderly transfer is to ensure the continuity of access and Quality of
Care to Members.
The objective of the Phaseout Period is to ensure that, at the termination
of this Contract, the Contractor completes any and all of its remaining
contractual obligations under the Contract.
Given the uncertainties associated with the Turnover and Phaseout Periods
that will occur at the end of this Contract, the Contractor will be
flexible to changing requirements.
If DHS exercises its option(s) to extend this Contract, all Turnover and
Phaseout activities will be delayed a commensurate period of time.
20
▇▇▇▇▇▇ Medical Centers 95-23637
Article III
3.16.2 TURNOVER REQUIREMENTS
Prior to the termination or expiration of this Contract and upon request by
DHS, the Contractor will assist DHS in the orderly transfer of Member
medical care. In doing this, the Contractor will make available to DHS
copies of Medical Records, patient files, and any other pertinent
information, including information maintained by any subcontractor,
necessary for efficient case management of Members, as determined by the
Director. Costs of reproduction will be borne by DHS. In no circumstances
will a Medi-Cal Member be billed for this service.
3.16.3 PHASEOUT REQUIREMENTS
Phaseout for this Contract will consist of the processing, payment and
monetary reconciliation(s) necessary regarding claims for payment for
Covered Services.
Phaseout for the Contract will consist of the resolution of all financial
and reporting obligations of the Contractor. The Contractor will remain
liable for the processing and payment of invoices and other claims for
payment for Covered Services and other services provided to Members
pursuant to this Contract prior to the expiration or termination. The
Contractor will submit to DHS all reports required in Article VI, Scope of
Work, for the period from the last submitted report through the expiration
or termination date.
All data and information provided by the Contractor will be accompanied by
letter, signed by the responsible authority, certifying, under penalty of
perjury, to the accuracy and completeness of the materials supplied.
3.16.4 TURNOVER AND PHASEOUT PERIOD
Turnover and Phaseout Periods will occur during the same six (6) month time
period and this period will commence on the date the Operations Period of
the Contract or Contract extension ends. Turnover and Phaseout related
activities are non-payable items.
3.17 TERMINATION
3.17.1 TERMINATION - STATE OR DIRECTOR
DHS may terminate performance of work under this Contract in whole, or in
part, whenever for any reason DHS determines that the termination is in the
best interest of the State.
21
▇▇▇▇▇▇ Medical Centers 95-23637
Article III
Notification will be given at least nine (9) months prior to the effective
date of termination, except in cases where the Director determines the
health and welfare of Members is jeopardized by continuation of this
Contract, in which case the Contract will be immediately terminated.
Notification will state the effective date of, and the reason for, the
termination.
In addition to other grounds for termination, failure to comply with any of
the terms of this Contract will constitute cause for termination.
3.17.2 TERMINATION - CONTRACTOR
If mutual agreement between DHS and the Contractor cannot be attained on
capitation rates for rate years subsequent to September 30, 1997, the
Contractor will retain the right to terminate the Contract, no earlier than
September 30, 1998, by giving at least nine (9) months written notice to
DHS to that effect. The effective date of any termination under this
section will be September 30.
Grounds for contract termination by a Contractor are limited to its
unwillingness to accept the capitation rates determined by DHS, or if DHS
decides to negotiate rates, there is a failure to reach mutual agreement on
rates.
3.17.3 MANDATORY TERMINATION
DHS will terminate this Contract in the event that: (1) the Secretary,
DHHS, determines that the Contractor does not meet the requirements for
participation in the Medicaid program, Title XIX of the Social Security
Act, or (2) the Department of Corporations finds that the Contractor no
longer qualifies for licensure under the ▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇ Health Care Service
Plan Act by giving written notice to the Contractor. Notification will be
given by DHS at least sixty (60) days prior to the effective date of
termination, except in cases where the Director determines the health and
welfare of Members is jeopardized by continuation of the Contract, in which
case the Contract will be immediately terminated. Notification will state
the effective date of, and the reason for, the termination.
Under these circumstances, termination of the Operations period will be
effective on the last day of the month in which the Secretary, DHHS, or DOC
makes such determination, provided that DHS provides the Contractor with at
least 60 days notice of termination. The termination of this Contract will
be effective on the last day of the second full month from the date of the
notice of termination. The Contractor agrees that 60 days notice is
reasonable. Termination under this section does not relieve the Contractor
of its obligations under the Turnover and Phaseout Requirements, Sections
3.16.2 and 3.16.3.
22
▇▇▇▇▇▇ Medical Centers 95-23637

authority to impose sanctions provided in Welfare and Institutions Code,

require the following:
The Contractor to ensure providers or subcontractors cease activities which

the increase of the liquidated damages to the amount specified in

any other Contract duty hereby diminished.
3.19.2 LIQUIDATED DAMAGES FOR VIOLATION OF CONTRACT TERMS REGARDING THE
IMPLEMENTATION PERIOD
DHS may impose liquidated damages of $5,000 per requirement specified in

issues a written notice of correction to the Contracting Officer
certifying, under penalty of perjury, the correction of condition(s) for
which liquidated damages were imposed. Liquidated damages will cease on the
day of the Contractor's certification only if subsequent verification of

manner and at the time certified to by the Contractor.
The Contracting Officer will determine whether the necessary level of
documentation has been submitted to verify corrections. The Contracting
Officer will be the sole judge of the sufficiency and accuracy of any
documentation. Corrections must be sustained for a reasonable period of at
least ninety (90) days from DHS acceptance; otherwise, liquidated damages

Article III
3.21 DISPUTES AND APPEALS
This Disputes and Appeals section will be used by the Contractor as the
means of seeking resolution of disputes on contractual issues.
Filing a dispute will not preclude DHS from recouping the value of the
amount in dispute from the Contractor or from offsetting this amount from
subsequent capitation payment(s). If the amount to be recouped exceeds 25
percent of the capitation payment, amounts of up to 25 percent will be
withheld from successive capitation payments until the amount in dispute is
fully recouped. If a recoupment or offset is later found to be
inappropriate, DHS will repay the Contractor the full amount of recoupment
or offset, plus interest at the Pooled Money Investment Rate pursuant to
Government Code Section 16480 et seq.
3.21.1 DISPUTES RESOLUTION BY NEGOTIATION
DHS and Contractor agree to try to resolve all contractual issues by
negotiation and mutual agreement at the Contracting Officer level without
litigation. The parties recognize that the implementation of this policy
depends on open-mindedness, and the need for both sides to present adequate
supporting information on matters in question.
Before issuance of a Contracting Officer's decision, informal discussions
between the parties by individuals who have not participated substantially
in the matter in dispute will be considered by the parties in efforts to
reach mutual agreement.

Within fifteen (15) days of the date the dispute concerning performance of

communications) which it is disputing.
The Contractor's notification will state, on the basis of the most accurate
information then available to the Contractor, the following:

Contract, including matters identified in the Notification of Disputes, to
the maximum extent possible.
3.21.3 CONTRACTING OFFICERS DECISION
Any disputes concerning performance of this Contract will be decided by the

decision. The Contracting Officer will serve a copy of the decision on the
Contractor. The decision of the Contracting Officer will be rendered within
thirty (30) days of receipt of a Notification of Dispute or any additional
substantiating documentation requested by the Contracting Officer, unless
the Contracting Officer provides a written explanation to the Contractor
why a longer period is necessary. The decision will be final and conclusive
unless within thirty (30) days from the date of service of that decision
the Contractor files with the Contracting Officer a written appeal
addressed to the Director, DHS, State of California.
The Contracting Officer's decision will:

file a dispute; or
28
▇▇▇▇▇▇ Medical Centers 95-23637
Article III
2. Reaffirm the conduct and, if there is a cost impact sufficient to
constitute a change in obligations pursuant to the payment
provisions contained in Article V, direct DHS to comply with that
section.
B. Deny the Contractor's dispute and, where necessary direct the manner
of future performance; or
C. Request additional substantiating documentation in the event the
information in the Contractor's notification is inadequate to permit a
decision to be made under A. or B. above, and will advise the
Contractor as to what additional information is required, and
establish how that information will be furnished. The Contractor will
have thirty (30) days to respond to the Contracting Officer's request
for further information. Upon receipt of this additional requested
information, the Contracting Officer will have thirty (30) days to
respond with a decision. Failure to supply additional information
required by the Contracting Officer within the time period specified
above will constitute waiver by the Contractor of all claims in
accordance with Section 3.21.5.
3.21.4 CONTRACTOR DUTY TO PERFORM
Pending final determination of any dispute hereunder, the Contractor will
proceed diligently with the performance of this Contract and in accordance
with the Contracting Officer's decision.
3.21.5 WAIVER OF CLAIMS
If the Contractor fails to submit a Notification of Dispute, supporting and
substantiating documentation, or any additionally required information in
the manner and within the time specified in the Disputes and Appeals

claims arising out of that conduct, whether direct or consequential in
nature.

▇▇▇▇▇▇ Medical Centers 95-23637
ARTICLE V
5.5 DETERMINATION OF RATES
DHS will determine the capitation rates for the initial period December 1,
1995, or the Contract effective date of operations if later, through
September 30, 1997. Subsequent to September 30, 1997 and through the
duration of the Contract, DHS will make an annual redetermination of rates
for each rate year defined as the 12 month period from October 1, through
September 30. DHS reserves the right to redetermine rates on an actuarial
basis or move to a negotiated rate for each rate year. All payments beyond
June 1996 and rate adjustments beyond September 1997 are subject to future
appropriations of funds by the Legislature and the Department of Finance
approval. Further, all payments are subject to the availability of Federal
congressional appropriation of funds.
If DHS redetermines rates on an actuarial basis, DHS will determine whether
the rates will be increased, decreased, or remain the same. If it is
determined by DHS that the Contractor's capitation rates will be increased
or decreased, that increase or decrease will be effectuated through a
Change Order to this Contract in accordance with the provisions of Article
III, Section 3.34, Change Requirements, subject to the following
provisions:
A. The Change Order will be effective as of October 1 of each year
covered by this Contract.
B. In the event there is a any delay in a determination to increase or
decrease capitation rates, so that a Change Order may not be
processed in time to permit payment of new rates commencing October 1,
the payment to the Contractor will continue at the rates then in
effect. Those continued payments will constitute interim payment
only. Upon final approval of the Change Order providing for the rate
change, DHS will make adjustments for those months for which interim
payment was made.
C. Notwithstanding paragraph B, payment of the new annual rates will
commence no later than December 1, provided that a Change Order
providing for the new annual rates has been issued by DHS. By
accepting payment of new annual rates prior to full approval by all
control agencies of the Change Order to this Contract implementing
such new rates, the Contractor stipulates to a confession of judgment
for any amounts received in excess of the final approved rate. If the
final approved rate differs from the rates agreed upon by the
Contractor and DHS:
1. Any underpayment by the State will be paid to the Contractor
within 30 days after final approval of the new rates.
50
▇▇▇▇▇▇ Medical Centers 95-23637
ARTICLE V
2. Any overpayment to the Contractor will be recaptured by the
State's withholding the amount due from the Contractor's next
capitation check.
If the amount to be withheld from that capitation check exceeds
25 percent of the capitation payment for that month, amounts up
to 25 percent will be withheld from successive capitation
payments until the overpayment is fully recovered by the State.
5.6 REDETERMINATION OF RATES - OBLIGATION CHANGES
The Capitation rates may be adjusted during the rate year to provide for a
change in obligations which results in an increase or decrease of more than
one percent of cost (as defined in Title 22, CCR, Section 53322) to the
Contractor. Any adjustments will be effectuated through a Change Order to
the Contract subject to the following provisions:
A. The Change Order will be effective as of the first day of the month in
which the change in obligations is effective, as determined by DHS.
B. In the event DHS is unable to process the Change Order in time to
permit payment of the adjusted rates as of the month in which the
change in obligations is effective, payment to Contractor will
continue at the rates then in effect. Continued payment will
constitute interim payment only. Upon final approval of the Change
Order providing for the change in obligations, DHS will make
adjustments for those months for which interim payment was made.
If mutual agreement between DHS and the Contractor cannot be attained on
capitation rates for rate years subsequent to September 30, 1997, the
Contractor will retain the right to terminate the Contract, but no earlier
than September 30, 1998. Notification of intent to terminate a Contract
will be in writing and provided to DHS at least nine months prior to the
effective date of termination. Contract termination due to an inability to
reach agreement upon capitation rates is limited to termination at the end
of each rate year, September 30th. Therefore, Contractor must provide
termination notification by December 31st of the prior year for an
effective termination date of September 30th. DHS will pay the capitation
rates last offered for that rate period until the Contract is terminated.

Contractor by DHS.
C. Claims submitted will not be paid by DHS unless received by DHS not
later than the last day of the sixth month following the end of the
twelve-month period in which they were incurred.
D. The time specified for submission of claims may be extended for a
period not to exceed one year upon a finding of "good cause" by the

and the delay is necessary to permit the Contractor to obtain
payment, partial payment, or proof of non-liability of that other
health coverage.
2. Where the claim submission was delayed due to eligibility
certification or determination by the State or county.
3. Where there was substantial interference with claim submission
due to damage to or destruction of the Contractor's (or
subcontractor's) business office or records by a natural
disaster, including fire, flood or earthquake or other similar
circumstances.

care for illness of, or injury to, Members which results from or is greatly
aggravated by, a catastrophic occurrence or disaster.
Contractor will return a prorated amount of the capitation payment
following the Director's invocation of the catastrophic coverage
limitation. The amount returned will be determined by dividing the total
capitation payment by the number of days in the month. The amount will be
returned to DHS for each day in the month after the Director has invoked
the catastrophic coverage limitation clause.
5.9 FINANCIAL SECURITY
If capitation is prepaid, Contractor will provide satisfactory evidence of
and maintain Financial Security in an amount equal to at least one month's
capitation payment, in a manner specified by DHS. The Financial Security
will remain in effect for at least 90 days following termination or
expiration of this Contract or until, in the judgment of DHS the
obligations set forth in this Contract are fulfilled.

if the Contract were executed after that determination was made.
B. This Contract is valid and enforceable only if sufficient funds are
made available to the State by the United States government for each
Fiscal Year for the purpose of this program. In addition, this

DHS may recover the capitation payments made to the Contractor for the
Member and absolve the Contractor from all financial and other risk
for the provision of services to the Member under the terms of the
Contract for the month or months in question.
B. As a result of the Contractor's failure to perform contractual
responsibilities to comply with mandatory federal Medicaid
requirements, the Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS)
disallows Federal Financial Participation (FFP) for payments made by
DHS to the Contractor. DHS may recover the amounts disallowed by DHHS
by an offset to the capitation payment made to the Contractor. If
recovery of the full amount at one time imposes a financial hardship
on the Contractor, DHS at its discretion may grant a Contractor's
request to repay the recoverable amounts in monthly installments over
a period of consecutive months not to exceed six (6) months.
C. If DHS determines that any other erroneous or improper payment not
mentioned above has been made to the Contractor, DHS may recover the
amounts determined by an offset to the capitation payment made to the
Contractor. If recovery of the full amount at one time imposes a
financial hardship on the Contractor, DHS, at its discretion, may
grant a Contractor's request to repay the recoverable amounts in

performance of the agreement, shall act in an independent capacity and
not as officers or employees or agents of State of California.
3. The State may terminate this agreement and be relieved of the payment
of any consideration to Contractor should Contractor fail to perform
the covenants herein contained at the time and in the manner herein
provided. In the event of such termination the State may proceed with
the work in any manner deemed proper by the State. The cost to the
State shall be deducted from any sum due the Contractor under this

WHEREAS DHS and Contractor entered into contract number 95-23637 on April

1. Section 3.17.6 is added to the Contract as though fully set forth therein:
(a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Contract and except as
provided in subsection (b), this Contract shall terminate on November 30,
1997, unless Contractor can accept enrollment on December 1, 1997, with
coverage to be effective on December 1, 1997.
(b) The termination provisions of subsection (a) above, shall not apply if
Contractor is unable to accept enrollment on December 1, 1997, as a result
of (1) conditions, natural or otherwise, beyond the control of Contractor,
which substantially interfere with normal business operations, or (2)
legal, regulatory or other obstacles, unrelated to any act or omission of
Contractor, that prevent, postpone or suspend commencement of the Two Plan
Model Program in San Bernardino and Riverside counties.
(c) In the event of termination of the Contract pursuant to this section
3.17.6, Contractor waives any further notice and any administrative appeal
rights otherwise arising from or associated with termination of the

(causing Contractor to be subjected to repeated provider demands
for payment for those services or other demonstrable degradation
in Contractor's relations with community providers).

the plan, which includes allowing others to use the Member's plan
membership card to receive services from Contractor.
C. A Member's failure to follow prescribed treatment (including failure
to keep established medical appointments) shall not, in and of itself,
be good cause for the approval by DHS of a Contractor-initiated
Disenrollment request unless Contractor can demonstrate to DHS that,
as a result of the failure, Contractor is exposed to a substantially
greater and unforeseeable risk than that otherwise contemplated under
the Contract and rate-setting assumptions.
D. The problem resolution attempted prior to a Contractor-initiated
Disenrollment described in subsection B, must be documented by
Contractor. A formal procedure for Contractor-initiated Disenrollments
shall be established by Contractor and approved by DHS. As part of the

4.4 ENROLLMENT PROCESSING
4.4.1 GENERAL
The parties to this Contract agree that the primary purpose of DHS'
Medi-Cal managed care system is to improve quality and access to care
for Medi-Cal beneficiaries. The parties acknowledge that the Medi-Cal
eligibility process and the managed care enrollment system are dynamic
and complex programs. The parties also acknowledge that it is
impractical to ensure that every beneficiary eligible for enrollment in
the Contractor's plan will be enrolled in a timely manner. Furthermore,
the parties recognize
37
▇▇▇▇▇▇ MEDICAL CENTERS, INC. 95-23637-A03
that for a variety of reasons some Eligible Beneficiaries will not be
enrolled in Contractor's plan and will receive Covered Services in the
Medi-Cal Fee-for-Service system. These reasons include, but are not
limited to, the exclusion of some beneficiaries from participating in
Medi-Cal managed care, the time it takes to enroll beneficiaries,
changes in laws and policies, the loss and subsequent regaining of
eligibility by beneficiaries, retroactive periods of eligibility for
some beneficiaries, and the lack of a current valid address for some
beneficiaries. The parties desire to work together in a cooperative
manner so that Eligible Beneficiaries who choose to or should be
assigned to Contractor's plan are enrolled in Contractor's plan pursuant
to the requirements of Section 4.4. The parties agree that to accomplish
this goal it is necessary to be reasonably flexible with regard to the
enrollment process.
4.4.2 DEFINITIONS
For purposes of Section 4.4, Enrollment Processing, the following
definitions shall apply:
A. Fully Converted County means a county in which the following
circumstances - exist, except for those Medi-Cal beneficiaries
covered by Title 22, CCR, Section 53887,:
1. Eligible Beneficiaries who meet the mandatory enrollment
criteria contained in Tide 22, CCR, Section 53845(a) may no

53845(a) must now choose a managed care plan or they will be
assigned to a managed care plan; and

mandatory enrollment criteria contained in Title 22, CCR,
Section 53845(a) on the last date that both 1. and 2. above

care plan; and
(ii) those beneficiaries still eligible for Medi-Cal and
enrollment into a managed care plan at the time
their plan enrollment is processed in MEDS have been
enrolled into a managed care plan.
38

eligibility for managed care plan enrollment is
interrupted due to aid code, ZIP code or county code
changes; or
(ii) becomes eligible for enrollment in a managed care
plan on a retroactive basis.
4.4.3 DHS ENROLLMENT OBLIGATIONS

For purposes of this section, DHS shall be deemed to have cured any
noncompliance with Section 4.4, Enrollment Processing, identified
in Contractor's notice if within the Cure Period any of the
following occurs:
1. Mandatory Plan Beneficiaries receive an effective date of
plan enrollment that is within the Cure Period, or
2. DHS corrects enrollment that failed to comply with Section
4.4, Enrollment Processing, by redirecting enrollment from
one Contractor to another within the Cure Period in order to
comply with Section 4.4, Enrollment Processing, or

beneficiary Assignment (subject to the requirements of Title
22, CCR, Section 53884(b)(l) through (b)(4)), to the maximum
extent new beneficiaries are available to be assigned, to
make up the number of incorrectly assigned beneficiaries as
soon as possible.
C. If it is necessary to redirect enrollment or change the
distribution of beneficiary Assignment due to noncompliance with
Section 4.4, Enrollment Processing, and such change varies from the
requirements of Title 22, CCR, Section 53884(b)(5) or (b)(6),
Contractor agrees it will neither seek legal nor equitable relief
for such variance or the results of such variance if DHS resumes
assignment consistent with Sections 53884 (b)(5) or (b)(6) after

Contract, if DHS fails to cure a noncompliance with Section 4.4,
Enrollment Processing, within the Cure Period, DHS will be

month in which any noncompliance occurs, is less than five percent
of Contractor's total Members in that affected county in the month
in which the noncompliance occurs. The parties acknowledge that the
above-referenced five-percent threshold shall apply on a
county-by-county basis, not in the aggregate.

80. Article V, PAYMENT PROVISIONS, Section 5.5, Determination of Rates, is
amended to read:
5.5 DETERMINATION OF RATES
DHS shall determine the capitation rates for the initial period December
1, 1995, or the Contract effective date of operations if later, through
September 30, 1997. Subsequent to September 30, 1997 and through the
duration of the Contract, DHS shall make an annual redetermination of
rates for each rate year defined as the 12-month period from October 1,
through September 30. DHS reserves the right to redetermine rates on an
actuarial basis or move to a negotiated rate for each rate year. All
payments beyond June 1996 and rate adjustments beyond September 1997 are
subject to future appropriations of funds by the Legislature and the
Department of Finance approval. Further, all payments are subject to
▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇, ▇▇▇ 447.361 and the availability of Federal congressional
appropriation of funds.
If DHS redetermines rates on an actuarial basis, DHS shall determine
whether the rates shall be increased, decreased, or remain the same. If
it is determined by DHS that Contractor's capitation rates shall be
increased or decreased, that increase or decrease shall be effectuated
through a Change Order to this Contract in accordance with the
provisions of Article III, Section 3.35, Change Requirements, subject to
the following provisions:
A. The Change Order shall be effective as of October 1 of each year
covered by this Contract.
B. In the event there is any delay in a determination to increase or
decrease capitation rates, so that a Change Order may not be
processed in time to permit payment of new rates commencing October
1, the payment to Contractor shall continue at the rates then in
effect. Those continued payments shall constitute interim payment
only. Upon final approval of the Change Order providing for the
rate change, DHS shall make adjustments for those months for which
interim payment was made.
46
▇▇▇▇▇▇ MEDICAL CENTERS, INC. 95-23637-A03
C. Notwithstanding paragraph B, payment of the new annual rates shall
commence no later than December 1, provided that a Change Order
providing for the new annual rates has been issued by DHS. By
accepting payment of new annual rates prior to full approval by all
control agencies of the Change Order to this Contract implementing
such new rates, Contractor stipulates to a confession of judgment
for any amounts received in excess of the final approved rate. If
the final approved rate differs from the rates agreed upon by
Contractor and DHS:
1. Any underpayment by the State shall be paid to Contractor
within 30 days after final approval of the new rates.
2. Any overpayment to Contractor shall be recaptured by the
State's withholding the amount due from Contractor's next
capitation check.
If the amount to be withheld from that capitation check
exceeds 25 percent of the capitation payment for that month,
amounts up to 25 percent shall be withheld from successive
capitation payments until the overpayment is fully recovered
by the State.
D. If mutual agreement between DHS and Contractor cannot be
attained on capitation rates for rate years subsequent to
September 30, 1997 (resulting from a rate change pursuant to
Section 5.5 or 5.6), Contractor shall retain the right to
terminate the Contract, but no earlier than September 30,
1998. Notification of intent to terminate a Contract shall
be in writing and provided to DHS at least nine (9) months
prior to the effective date of termination, subject to any
earlier termination date negotiated in accordance with
Article III, Section 3.18.2, Termination - Contractor. DHS
shall pay the capitation rates last offered for that rate
period until the Contract is terminated.
E. DHS shall make every effort to notify and consult with
Contractor regarding proposed redetermination of rates
pursuant to this section or Section 5.6 at the earliest
possible time prior to implementation of the new rate.

Obligation Changes, is amended to read:
5.6 REDETERMINATION OF RATES - OBLIGATION CHANGES
The Capitation rates may be adjusted during the rate year to provide for
a change in obligations which results in an increase or decrease of more
than one percent of cost (as defined in Title 22, CCR, Section 53869) to
Contractor. Any adjustments shall be effectuated through a Change Order
to the Contract subject to the following provisions:
A. The Change Order shall be effective as of the first day of the
month in which the change in obligations is effective, as
determined by DHS.
B. In the event DHS is unable to process the Change Order in time to
permit payment of the adjusted rates as of the month in which the
change in obligations is effective, payment to Contractor shall
continue at the rates then in effect. Continued payment shall
constitute interim payment only. Upon final approval of the Change
Order providing for the change in obligations, DHS shall make
adjustments for those months for which interim payment was made.
C. DHS and Contractor may negotiate an earlier termination date,
pursuant to Article III, Section 3.18.2, Termination - Contractor,
if a change in contractual obligations is created by a State or
federal change in the Medi-Cal program, or a lawsuit, that
substantially alters the financial assumptions and conditions under
which Contractor entered into this Contract, such that Contractor
can demonstrate to the satisfaction of DHS that it cannot remain
financially solvent until the termination date that would otherwise
be established under this section.
82. Article V, PAYMENT PROVISIONS, Section 5.7, Reinsurance, subsection (A),
sentence one, is amended to read:

84. Article V, PAYMENT PROVISIONS, Section 5.11, Recovery of Capitation
Payments, is amended to read:
5.11 RECOVERY OF CAPITATION PAYMENTS
DHS shall have the right to recover amounts paid to Contractor in the
following circumstances as specified:
A. DHS determines that a Member has either been improperly enrolled,
due to ineligibility of the Member to enroll in Contractor's plan,
residence outside of Contractor's Service Area, or pursuant to
Title 22, Section 53891(a)(2), or should have been disenrolled with
an effective date in a prior month. DHS may recover or, upon
request by Contractor, DHS shall recover the capitation payments
made to Contractor for the Member and absolve Contractor from all
financial and other risk for the provision of services to the
Member under the terms of the Contract for the month or months in
question. In such event, Contractor shall have the authority to
recover any payments made to providers for Covered Services
rendered for the month or months in question. Contractor shall
inform providers that claims for services provided to Members
during the month or months in question shall be paid by DHS' fiscal
intermediary, if the Member is determined eligible for the Medi-Cal
program.

▇▇▇▇▇▇ MEDICAL CENTERS, INC. 95-23637-A03
Upon request by Contractor, DHS may allow Contractor to retain the
capitation payments made for Members that are eligible to enroll in
Contractor's plan, but should have been retroactively disenrolled
pursuant to Article VI, Section 6.7.2, Excluded Services:
Circumstances Under Which Member Disenrolled, or under other
circumstances as approved by DHS. If Contractor retains the
capitation payments, Contractor shall provide or arrange and pay
for all Medically Necessary Covered Services for the Member, until
the Member is disenrolled on a nonretroactive basis pursuant to
Article III, Section 3.23.5, Disenrollment.
B. As a result of Contractor's failure to perform contractual
responsibilities to comply with federal Medicaid requirements, the
Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) disallows Federal
Financial Participation (FFP) for payments made by DHS to
Contractor. DHS may recover the amounts disallowed by DHHS by an
offset to the capitation payments made to Contractor. If recovery
of the full amount at one time imposes a financial hardship on
Contractor, DHS at its discretion may grant a Contractor's request
to repay the recoverable amounts in monthly installments over a
period of consecutive months not to exceed six (6) months.
C. If DHS determines that any other erroneous or improper payment not
mentioned above has been made to Contractor, DHS may recover the
amounts determined by an offset to the capitation payments made to
Contractor. If recovery of the full amount at one time imposes a
financial hardship on Contractor, DHS, at its discretion, may grant
a Contractor's request to repay the recoverable amounts in monthly
installments over a period of consecutive months not to exceed six
(6) months. At least thirty (30) days prior to seeking any such
recovery, DHS shall notify Contractor to explain the improper or
erroneous nature of the payment and to describe the recovery
process.

pediatric preventive service encounter occurred. Information may be
reported in hard copy or via computer media claiming, to the extent
such arrangements are available to Contractor. This shall not be
construed as creating any obligation on DHS to make available to

and accepted for processing DHS' fiscal intermediary shall be
included in DHS' evaluation for subsequent Services Reporting
Periods within the same Reporting Year if such data is received by

last Services Reporting Period of the reporting Year. The
provisions of this subsection 5.12.3.B.4 apply only to evaluating

151. Attachment 1 is amended by adding the following language to the
capitation rate sheets:
The State is entering into this capitated Contract as an alternative
means of paying for medical care for members of the eligible Medi-Cal
population. The traditional payment method, called Fee-For-Service,
requires Medi-Cal beneficiaries to find an authorized Medi-Cal
provider when they are in need of health care. The State reimburses
these Medi-Cal providers for services rendered, according to an
established schedule of fees. Under this capitated Contract, the
State pays Contractor a monthly fee for each Medi-Cal beneficiary
enrolled in its prepaid health plan, and Contractor is then
responsible for providing all medically necessary health care services
to the beneficiary as required by the Contract.
The rate development process for this Contract consists of two
separate calculations. First, a Fee-For-Service equivalent (FFSE) is
determined for the entire group of Medi-Cal eligibles. Second, rates
are calculated for each Contract by beneficiary aid code using
historical Medi-Cal managed care data. The name given this latter
method is an experienced based methodology. Both the FFSE and
experience based methodologies use factors which directly influence
the cost of providing health care to Medi-Cal beneficiaries. These
factors are age, sex, geographic area with price indices, Medi-Cal aid
code, and eligibility for Medicare. The rate methodologies also employ
adjustments for changes that are likely to occur during the term of
the Contract. These adjustments include fee, benefit, or policy
changes to reflect changes to the Medi-Cal program that are mandated
each year by the State Legislature and the use of a trend factor to
project costs to the term of the Contract.
Actuaries employed by the Department of Health Services conduct the
rate development process for this Contract. This attachment presents
the methodology and calculation of the capitation rates for this
Contract.

Enclosure I
The purpose of this enclosure to ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Healthcare of California, dba Molina,
amendment 6, Contract Number 95-23637 is to provide you the Contractor with an
explanation for the amendment.
This amendment adds an Aid Code 7J to your existing contract, which is result of
recent legislation that allows certain categories of Children under the age of
19, to have their eligibility continued for one more year. This aid code was
added to the child category with no increase in rate.
This amendment adds Aid Code 1H to the Aged category and 6H to the Disabled
category.
This amendment also adds two (2) new Sections to your existing Contract.
The first is Section 3.47, Prohibition of the use of State funds for Union
Organizing. This section is mandated by Legislative ▇▇▇▇ AB1839 and must be
included in all contracts, which are initiated by the State. This section
prohibits the use of state funds to assist, promote, or deter union organizing
by employees performing work on a state contract or use state property to hold
meetings if the purpose of the meeting is to assist, promote or deter union
organizing.
The second is Section 3.48, Debarment and Suspension. This section requires
language of a certification by contractor that contractor principals are not
presently debarred, suspended, proposed for debarment, declared ineligible, or
voluntarily excluded from participation in a federally qualified project by any
federal department or agency. Have not within the last three years been
convicted or had civil judgement rendered against them. This section is required
by federal law and must be included in any state contract receiving federal
funding of $50,000 dollars or more.

6.6.21 FQHC AND RURAL HEALTH CLINIC (RHC) CONTRACTS. Issued July 1,1999.
1. 3.27.6 FEDERALLY QUALIFIED HEALTH CENTERS/RURAL HEALTH CLINICS
A. Contractor shall not enter into a Subcontract with a Federally
Qualified Health Center (FQHC) or a Rural Health Clinic (RHC) unless
DHS approves the provisions regarding rates, which shall be subject to
the standard that they be reasonable, as determined by DHS, in
relation to the services to be provided, in accordance with Article
VI, Section 6.6.21 FQHC and RHC Contracts. In Subcontracts where the
FQHC or RHC has made the election to be reimbursed on a reasonable
cost basis by the State, provisions shall be included that require the
subcontractor to keep a record of the number of visits by plan Members
separate from Fee-For-Service Medi-Cal beneficiaries, in addition to
any other data reporting requirements of the Subcontract. The
provisions of this section shall end June 30, 1999.
B. The provisions of this section shall apply beginning July 1, 1999.
Contractor shall submit to DHS, within 30 days of a request and in the
form and manner specified by DHS, for each of Contractor's FQHC and
RHC Subcontracts the services provided and the reimbursement level and
amount. Further, Contractor shall certify to DHS that pursuant to
Welfare and Institutions Code, Section 14087.325(b) and (d), as
amended by Chapter 894/Statutes of 1998, that FQHC and RHC Subcontract
terms and conditions are the same as offered to other Subcontractors
providing similar scope of service and that reimbursement is not less
than the level and amount of payment that Contractor makes for the
same scope of services furnished by a provider that is not a FQHC or
RHC. Effective July 1, 1999, Contractor shall not be required to pay
FQHCs and RHCs at the Medi-Cal interim per visit rate described in
Section 6.6.22. Rather, Contractor shall be required to pay its FQHC
and RHC Subcontractors reimbursement that is

not less than the level and amount of payment that Contractor makes
for the same scope of services furnished by a provider that is not a
FQHC or RHC. Effective July 1, 1999, Contractor capitation rates will
be reduced to reflect the removal of the requirement to pay FQHCs and
RHCs the Medi-Cal interim per visit rate. DHS reserves the right to
review and audit Contractor's FQHC and RHC reimbursement at its
discretion to ensure compliance with the state and federal law and
shall approve all FQHC and RHC Subcontracts consistent with the
provisions of Welfare and Institutions Code, Section 14087.325(h).
C. Subcontracts with FQHCs shall also meet Contract requirements of
Article VI, Sections 6.6.20, FQHC services and 6.6.21, FQHC and Rural
Health Clinic Subcontracts. Subcontracts with RHCs shall also meet
Contract requirements of Article VI, Section 6.6.21
D. In Subcontracts where a negotiated reimbursement rate is agreed to as
total payment, a provision that such rate constitutes total payment
shall be included in the Subcontract.

amount they were paid through capitation rates for FQHC/RHC services.
For each annual reconciliation, if, pursuant to subcontracts with FQHCs and
RHCs that have been reviewed and approved in writing by DHS, Contractor has
paid subcontracting FQHCs and RHCs in the aggregate interim rate payments
an amount greater than 110 percent of the dollar value of FQHC and RHC
interim rate payments included in Contractor's capitation rates, DHS shall
pay Contractor the amount in excess of 110 percent.
For each annual reconciliation, if, pursuant to subcontracts with FQHCs and
RHCs that have been reviewed and approved in writing by DHS, Contractor has
paid subcontracting FQHCs and RHCs in the aggregate an amount less than 90

▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇
Dear Mr., ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇:
On July 1, 1999, the Department of Health Services (Department) sent
you Change Order No. 03 to Contract No. 95-23637. After further
analysis, the Department determined that Change Order No. 03 did not
completely express its intent regarding Federally Qualified Health
Centers (FQHCs) and Rural Health Centers (RHCs). In addition, this
Change Order adds several new aid codes that became effective during
1999. These aid codes are split aid codes from existing aid codes you
are already capitated for, including 5X split from 59, 8R split from
7A, and 8P spirt from 72. Therefore, the Department is sending you
this enclosed Change Order (No. 05) to replace and supersede Change
Order No. 03.
In accordance with Article III, Section 3.34.2 of your Contract, the
enclosed Change Order authorizes the change in rates for FQHC and RHC
subcontracts and transmits (▇▇▇▇▇▇ Medical Centers, Inc.) rates for
the period July 1, 1999 through September 30, 1 999. This Change
Order also changes Contract Sections 3.28.6 Federally Qualified Health
Centers/Rural Health Clinics; 5.3 Capitation Rates; 5.4 Capitation
Rates Constitute Payment in Full; 5.13 FQHC and RHC Risk Corridor
Payments; 6.3,6 Submittal of FQHC and RHC Payment Information and
6.6.21 FQHC and RHC Contracts. These rates appeared in your capitation
rates beginning July 1, 1999.
If you have any questions, please contact your contract manager.
Sincerely,
/s/

CLINICS
A. For service periods from the effective date of this contract
through June 30,1999, Contractor shall not enter into a
Subcontract with a Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC)
or a Rural Health Clinic (RHC) unless DHS approves the
provisions regarding rates, which shall be subject to the
standard that they be reasonable, as determined by DHS, in
relation to the services to be provided in accordance with
Article VI, Section 6.6.21, FQHC and RHC Contracts. In
Subcontracts where the FQHC or RHC has made the election to
be reimbursed on a reasonable cost basis by the State,
provisions shall be included that require the subcontractor
to keep a record of the number of visits by plan Members
separate from Fee-For-Service Medi-Cal beneficiaries, in
addition to any other data reporting requirements of the
Subcontract
B. For service periods beginning July 1,1999, Contractor shall
submit to DHS, within 30 days of a request and in the form
and manner specified by DHS, the services provided and the
reimbursement level and amount for each of Contractor's FQHC
and RHC Subcontracts. For service periods beginning July
1,1999, Contractor shall certify in writing to DHS within 30
days of DHS's written request, that pursuant to Welfare and
Institutions Code, Section 14087.325(b) and (d), as amended
by Chapter 894/Statutes of 1998, FQHC and RHC Subcontract
terms and conditions are the same as offered to other
Subcontractors providing a similar scope of service and that
reimbursement is not less than the level and amount of
payment that Contractor makes for the same scope of services
furnished by a provider that is not a FQHC or RHC. For FQHC
or RHC services provided on or after July 1,1999, Contractor
is not required to pay FQHCs and RHCs the Medi-Cal interim
per visit rate described in Section 6.6.21. At its
discretion, DHS reserves the right to review and audit
Contractor's FQHC and RHC reimbursement to ensure compliance
with state and federal law and shall approve all FQHC and
RHC Subcontracts consistent with the provisions of Welfare
and Institutions Code Section 14087.325(h).

of Article VI, Section 6.6.21.

3. 5.4 CAPITATION RATES CONSTITUTE PAYMENT IN FULL
Capitation rates for each rate period, as calculated by DHS, are
prospective rates and constitute payment in full, subject to any stop
loss reinsurance provisions, on behalf of a Member for all Covered
Services required by such Member and for all Administrative Costs
incurred by the Contractor in providing or arranging for such
services, and subject to adjustments for federally qualified health
centers in accordance with Section 5.13, but do not include payment
for the recoupment of current or previous losses incurred by
Contractor. DHS is not responsible for making payments for recoupment
of losses. The actuarial basis for the determination of the capitation
payment rates is outlined in Attachment 1 (consisting of 16 pages).
4. 5.13 FQHC/RHC RISK CORRIDOR PAYMENTS
For FQHCs/RHCs service periods beginning October 1,1997, and
continuing through June 30,1999, provided that Contractor has
submitted expenditure data to DHS in the form and manner specified by
DHS, DHS shall perform reconciliations to determine the variance
between the funds that have been paid to the Contractor in its
capitation rates to reflect the dollar value of FQHC/RHC interim rate
payments made to these entities in the
3 of 5
Medi-Cal fee-for-service program, and the amount that the Contractor
has paid to subcontracting FQHCs/RHCs.
For the initial reconciliation and for each reconciliation thereafter,
if, pursuant to subcontracts with FQHCs and RHCs that have been
reviewed and approved by DHS, Contractor has paid subcontracting FQHCs
and RHCs in the aggregate an amount greater than 110 percent of the
dollar value of FQHC and RHC interim rate payments included in
Contractor's capitation rates, DHS shall pay Contractor the amount in
excess of 110 percent.
For the initial reconciliation and for each reconciliation thereafter,
if, pursuant to subcontracts with FQHCs and RHCs that have been
reviewed and approved by DHS, Contractor has paid subcontracting FQHCs
and RHCs in the aggregate an amount less than 90 percent of the dollar
value of FQHC and RHC interim rate payments included in Contractor's
capitation rates, Contractor shall refund the amount below 90 percent
to DHS. DHS may recover amounts owed by Contractor pursuant to this
section through an offset to the capitation payments made to
Contractor, pursuant to Section 5.11(C), Recovery of Capitation
Payments.
All reconciliations shall be subject to an annual reconciliation audit
at which time payments to or recoupment from Contractor shall be
finalized.
5. 6.3.6 SUBMITTAL OF FQHC AND RHC PAYMENT INFORMATION
Effective with the October 1997 month of service. Contractor shall
keep a record of the number of visits by plan Members to each FQHC and
RHC contracting with Contractor and related payment information, and
shall submit this information to DHS in the frequency, format, and
manner specified by DHS. -This requirement shall remain in effect for
service periods through the September 2000 month of service.
6. 6.6.21 FQHO AND RURAL HEALTH CLINIC (RHC) CONTRACTS
A. For service periods beginning October 1,1997, and continuing
through June 30,1999, notwithstanding Article III, Section
3.26.4, Departmental Approval - Federally Qualified HMOs,
Contractor shall not enter into any contract with an FQHC or
RHC for provision of Covered Services to Members without prior
written approval by DHS. All contracts with FQHCs or RHCs shall
provide reimbursement to the FQHC or RHC on the basis of each
center's or clinic's Medi-Cal interim per visit rate,
applicable on the date the reimbursable services were provided,
as established by DHS, unless:
1. DHS has approved in writing an alternate reimbursement
methodology, or
4 of 5
2. The FQHC or RHC agrees to be reimbursed on an at-risk basis
and such agreement is contained in the contract with the
center or clinic. In contracts where a negotiated rate is
agreed to as total payment, the contract shall state that
such payment' constitutes total payment to the entity.
B. To the extent that Indian Health Service facilities qualify as
FQHCs or RHCs, the same reimbursement requirements shall apply
to contracts with Indian Health Service facilities.

If DHS creates a new aid code that is split or derived from
an existing aid code covered under this Contract, and the aid
code has a neutral revenue effect for the Contractor, then
the split aid code will automatically be included in the same
aid code category as is the original aid code covered under
this Contract. Contractor agrees to continue providing
covered services to the Members at the monthly capitation
rate specified for the original aid code. DHS shall confirm
all aid code splits, and the rates of payment for such new
aid codes, in writing to Contractor as soon as practicable
after such aid code splits occur.
2. 5.4 CAPITATION RATES CONSTITUTE PAYMENT IN FULL
Capitation rates for each rate period, as calculated by DHS,
are prospective rates and constitute payment in full, subject
to any stop loss reinsurance provisions, on behalf of a
Member for all Covered Services required by such Member and
for all administrative Costs incurred by the Contractor in
providing or arranging for such services, and subject to
adjustments for federally qualified health centers in
accordance with Section 14087.325 of the W&I Code, but do not
include payment for recoupment of current or previous losses
incurred by Contractor. DHS is not responsible for making
payments for recoupment of losses. The actuarial basis for
the determination of the capitation payment rates is outlined
in Attachment 1 (consisting of 12 pages).
3. All other terms, conditions, and provisions contained in Sections 5.3 and
5.4 remain unchanged.
