                  restrictions, conditions and obligations applicable to such
                  party regarding PHI;

                  of any such request, and shall provide the Office with copies
                  of any materials made available in response to such a request;

                  provide an accounting of disclosures pursuant to applicable

                  must be accounted for;

         G.       In accordance with procedures established by the Office,

                  the Office determines return or destruction is not feasible,
                  the protections in this agreement shall continue to be
                  extended to any PHI maintained by the Contractor for as long
                  as it is maintained.

         In order to fulfill the terms of this Contract, Contractor will utilize
         and interface with the State's electronic systems and will use them to

                                    pregnant woman or for preventive pediatric
                                    services (including EPSDT services) that are
                                    covered by the Medicaid program.

                           c.       The claim is for labor, delivery, and
                                    post-partum care and does not involve
                                    hospital costs associated with the inpatient
                                    hospital stay.

                           d.       The claim is for a child who is in a DYFS
                                    supported out of home placement.

                           e.       The claim involves coverage or services
                                    mentioned in 1.a, 1.b, 1.c, or 1.d, above
                                    in combination with another service.

                  2.       If the contractor knows that the third party will
                           neither pay for nor provide the covered service, and
                           the service is medically necessary, the contractor
                           shall neither deny payment for the service nor
                           require a written denial from the third party.

                  3.       If the contractor does not know whether a particular
                           service is covered by the third party, and the
                           service is medically necessary, the contractor shall
                           contact the third party and determine whether or not
                           such service is covered rather than requiring the
                           enrollee to do so. Further, the contractor shall
                           require the provider or subcontractor to bill the
                           third party if coverage is available.

                  4.       IN CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES, AND WITH THE PRIOR APPROVAL
                           OF THE DMAHS, THE CONTRACTOR SHALL RETAIN THE ABILITY
                           TO INITIATE TPL RECOVERY ACTIONS AGAINST HEALTH

                           FUNDS SHALL BE RETAINED BY THE CONTRACTOR; A SUMMARY
                           LEVEL OF THE RECOVERY EXPERIENCE, NET OF ANY VENDOR

                           IN CLAIMS ADJUSTMENTS THAT ARE SUBMITTED TO THE STATE

         I.       It is hereby understood and agreed by both parties that this
                  contract shall be effective and payments by DMAHS made to the
                  contractor subject to the availability of State and federal

                  can be renegotiated or terminated, without liability to the
                  State in order to comply with state and federal requirements
                  for the purpose of maximizing federal financial participation.

7.13 CLOSEOUT REQUIREMENTS

         A.       A closeout period shall begin one hundred-twenty (120) days
                  prior to the last day the contractor is responsible for
                  coverage of specific beneficiary groups or operating under
                  this contract. During the closeout period, the contractor
                  shall work cooperatively with, and supply program information
                  to, any subsequent contractor and DMAHS. Both the program
                  information and the working relationships between the two
                  contractors shall be defined by DMAHS.

         B.       The contractor shall be responsible for the provision of
                  necessary information and records, whether a part of the MCMIS
                  or compiled and/or stored elsewhere, to the new contractor
                  and/or DMAHS during the closeout period to ensure a smooth
                  transition of responsibility. The new contractor and/or DMAHS
                  shall define the information required during this period and
                  the time frames for submission. Information that shall be
                  required includes but is not limited to:

                  1.       Numbers and status of complaints and grievances in
                           process;

                  2.       Numbers and status of hospital authorizations in

                  calculated and made to the last day of a calendar month except
                  as noted in this Article.

         J.       Risk Assumption. The capitation rates shall not include any
                  amount for recoupment of any losses suffered by the contractor
                  for risks assumed under this contract or any prior contract
                  with the Department.

         K.       Hospitalizations. For any eligible person who applies for
                  participation in the contractor's plan, but who is
                  hospitalized prior to the time coverage under the plan becomes
                  effective, such coverage shall not commence until the date
                  after such person is discharged from the hospital and DMAHS
                  shall be liable for payment for the hospitalization, including
                  any charges for readmission within forty-eight (48) hours of
                  discharge for the same diagnosis. If an enrollee's
                  disenrollment or termination becomes effective during a
                  hospitalization, the contractor shall be liable for
                  hospitalization until the date such person is discharged from
                  the hospital, including any charges for readmission within
                  forty-eight (48) hours of discharge for the same diagnosis.
                  The contractor must notify DMAHS of these occurrences to
                  facilitate payment to appropriate providers.

         L.       Continuation of Benefits. The contractor shall continue
                  benefits for all enrollees for the duration of the contract
                  period for which capitation payments have been made, including
                  enrollees in an inpatient facility until discharge. The
                  contractor shall notify DMAHS of these occurrences.

         M.       Drug Carve-Out Report. The DMAHS will provide the contractor
                  with a monthly electronic file of paid drug claims data for
                  non-dually eligible, ABD enrollees.

         N.       MCSA Administrative Fee. The Contractor shall receive a
                  monthly administrative fee, PMPM, for its MCSA enrollees, by
                  the fifteenth (15th) day of any month during which health care
                  services will be available to an enrollee.

         O.       Reimbursement for MCSA Enrollee Paid Claims. The contractor
                  shall submit to DMAHS a financial summary report of claims
                  paid on behalf of MCSA enrollees on a weekly basis. The report
                  shall be summarized by category of service corresponding to
                  the MCSA benefits and payment dates, accompanied by an
                  electronic file of all individual claim numbers for which the
                  State is being billed.

         P.       MCSA Claims Payment Audits. The contractor shall monitor and
                  audit claims payments to providers to identify payment errors,
                  including duplicate payments, overpayments, underpayments, and
                  excessive payments. For such payment errors (excluding
                  underpayments), the contractor shall refund DMAHS the overpaid
                  amounts. The contractor shall report the dollar amount of
                  claims with payment errors on a monthly basis, which is
                  subject to verification by the State. The contractor is
                  responsible for collecting funds due to the State from
                  providers, either through cash payments or through offsets to
                  payments due the providers.

                                    the right to disenroll from the contractor's
                                    plan without cause applies to an
                                    individual's initial period of enrollment

                                    opportunity.

                  person, or the HBC that a serious quality of care issue is not
                  being addressed timely or appropriately. Additionally, the
                  enrollee may be accompanied by a representative of the
                  enrollee's choice to any proceedings and grievances/appeals.

                  rights.

                  CONTRACTOR'S PLAN-all services and responsibilities undertaken
                  by the contractor pursuant to this contract.

                  CONTRACTOR'S REPRESENTATIVE -- the individual legally
                  empowered to bind the contractor, using his/her signature
                  block, including his/her title. This individual will be
                  considered the Contractor's Representative during the life of
                  any contract entered into with the State unless amended in
                  writing pursuant to Article 7.

                  COPAYMENT-- the part of the cost-sharing requirement for NJ
                  FamilyCare Plan D AND H enrollees in which a fixed monetary
                  amount is paid for certain services/items received from the
                  contractor's providers.

                  COST AVOIDANCE--a method of paying claims in which the
                  provider is not reimbursed until the provider has demonstrated
                  that all available health insurance has been exhausted.

                  COST NEUTRAL--the mechanism used to smooth data, share risk,
                  or adjust for risk that will recognize both higher and lower
                  expected costs and is not intended to create a net aggregate
                  gain or loss across all payments.

                  COVERED SERVICES--see "BENEFITS PACKAGE"

                  CREDENTIALING--the contractor's determination as to the
                  qualifications and ascribed privileges of a specific provider
                  to render specific health care services.

                  CULTURAL COMPETENCY--a set of interpersonal skills that allow
                  individuals to increase their understanding, appreciation,
                  acceptance of and respect for cultural differences and
                  similarities within, among and between groups and the
                  sensitivity to how these differences influence relationships
                  with enrollees. This requires a willingness and ability to
                  draw on community-based values, traditions and customs, to
                  devise strategies to better meet culturally diverse enrollee
                  needs, and to work with knowledgeable persons of and from the
                  community in developing focused interactions, communications,
                  and other supports.

                  CWA OR COUNTY WELFARE AGENCY ALSO KNOWN AS COUNTY BOARD OF
                  SOCIAL SERVICES--the agency within the county government that
                  makes determination of eligibility for Medicaid and financial
                  assistance programs.

                  Department by the contractor pursuant to this contract.

                  Party Liability (TPL) or includes Medicare.

                  OUT OF AREA SERVICES-all services covered under the
                  contractor's benefits package included under the terms of the
                  Medicaid contract which are provided to enrollees outside the
                  defined basic service area.

                  OUTCOMES -- the results of the health care process, involving
                  either the enrollee or provider of care, and may be measured
                  at any specified point in time. Outcomes can be medical,
                  dental, behavioral, economic, or societal in nature.

                  OUTPATIENT CARE--treatment provided to an enrollee who is not

                  P FACTOR (P7) -- the grade of service for the telephone
                  system. The digit following the P (e.g., 7) indicates the
                  number of calls per hundred that are or can be blocked from
                  the system. In this sample, P7 means seven (7) calls in a
                  hundred may be blocked, so the system is designed to meet this
                  criterion. Typically, the grade of service is designed to meet
                  the peak busy hour, the busiest hour of the busiest day of the
                  year.

                  PARTICIPATING PROVIDER--a provider that has entered into a
                  provider contract with the contractor to provide services.

                  to the contractor to resolve discrepancies that may arise
                  between the roster and contractor enrollment files. If DMAHS
                  notifies the contractor in writing of changes in the roster,
                  the contractor shall rely upon that written notification in
                  the same manner as the roster. Corrective action shall be
                  limited to one (1) year from the date that the change was
                  effective.

                  to the existence of liable third parties in setting capitation
                  rates. ADDITIONALLY, these factors do not include any
                  reductions due to tort recoveries, or to recoveries made by

                           liable third party, unless prior approval to take
                           other action is obtained from the State,

                           a.       The coverage is derived from a parent whose
                                    obligation to pay support is being enforced

                           b.       The claim is for prenatal care for a
                                    pregnant woman or for preventive pediatric

                                    covered by the Medicaid program.

                           c.       The claim is for labor, delivery, and
                                    post-partum care and does not involve
                                    hospital costs associated with the inpatient
                                    hospital stay.

                           d.       The claim is for a child who is in a DYFS
                                    supported out of home placement.

                           e.       The claim involves coverage or services

                                    in combination with another service.

                  2.       If the contractor knows that the third party will
                           neither pay for nor provide the covered service, and
                           the service is medically necessary, the contractor
                           shall neither deny payment for the service nor
                           require a written denial from the third party.

                  3.       If the contractor does not know whether a particular
                           service is covered by the third party, and the
                           service is medically necessary, the contractor shall
                           contact the third party and determine whether or not
                           such service is covered rather than requiring the
                           enrollee to do so. Further, the contractor shall
                           require the provider or subcontractor to bill the
                           third party if coverage is available.

8.6      HEALTH BASED PAYMENT SYSTEM (HBPS) FOR THE ABD POPULATION WITHOUT
         MEDICARE

         The DMAHS shall utilize a Health-Based Payment System (HBPS) for
         reimbursements for the ABD population without Medicare to recognize
         larger average health care costs and greater dispersion around the
         average than other DMAHS populations. The contractor shall be
         reimbursed not only on the basis of the demographic cells into which
         individuals fall, but also on the basis of individual health status.

         The Chronic Disability Payment System (CDPS) (University of California,
         San Diego) is the HBPS or the system of Risk Adjustment that shall be
         used in this contract. The methodology for CDPS specific to New Jersey
         is provided in the Actuarial Certification Letter for Risk Adjustment
         issued separately to the contractor. Two base capitation rates and a
         DDD mental health/substance abuse add-on are developed for this
         population. These are:

         -        ABD without Medicare, non-DDD

         -        ABD DDD without Medicare, physical health component

         -        ABD - DDD without Medicare, Mental Health/Substance Abuse
                  add-on-component

         The Risk adjustment process has four major components.

         -        Development of base rates for the risk adjusted populations.

         -        Development of algebraic expressions that relate demographic
                  and clinical characteristics of beneficiaries to their
                  expected, prospective covered health care

                  enrollees in an inpatient facility until discharge. The

                  with a monthly electronic file of paid drag claims data for
                  non-dually eligible, ABD enrollees.

         N.       MCSA ADMINISTRATIVE FEE. THE CONTRACTOR SHALL RECEIVE A
                  MONTHLY ADMINISTRATIVE FEE, PMPM, FOR ITS MCSA ENROLLEES, BY
                  THE FIFTEENTH (15TH) DAY OF ANY MONTH DURING WHICH HEALTH CARE

                  STATE IS BEING BILLED.

         Certificate of Authority in New Jersey that contracts hereunder with

         contractor pursuant to this contract.

         CONTRACTOR'S REPRESENTATIVE--the individual legally empowered to bind

         This individual will be considered the Contractor's Representative

         amended in writing pursuant to Article 7.

         COPAYMENT--the part of the cost-sharing requirement for NJ FamilyCare
         Plan D enrollees in which a fixed monetary amount is paid for certain
         services/items received from the contractor's providers.

         reimbursed until the provider has demonstrated that all available
         health insurance has been exhausted.

         influence relationships with enrollees. This requires a willingness and
         ability to draw on community-based values, traditions and customs, to
         devise strategies to better meet culturally diverse enrollee needs, and
         to work with knowledgeable persons of and from the community in

4.2      SPECIAL PROGRAM REQUIREMENTS

4.2.1    EMERGENCY SERVICES

         A.       For purposes of this contract, "emergency" means an onset of a
                  medical or behavioral condition, the onset of which is
                  sudden, that manifests itself by symptoms of sufficient
                  severity, including severe pain,-that a prudent layperson, who
                  possesses an average knowledge of medicine and health, could
                  reasonably expect the absence of immediate medical attention
                  to result in:

                  1.       Placing the health of the person or others in serious
                           jeopardy;

                  2.       Serious impairment to such person's bodily functions;

                  3.       Serious dysfunction of any bodily organ or part of
                           such person; or

                  4.       Serious disfigurement of such person.

                  With respect to a pregnant woman who is having contractions,
                  an emergency exists where there is inadequate time to effect a
                  safe transfer to another hospital before delivery or the
                  transfer may pose a threat to the health or safety of the
                  woman or the unborn child.
