Benefit contracts authorised by this sponsor, as recorded on its public agenda platform. A public body is both an employer and, often, a health provider — so each row says whether it is buying drugs for its own staff or for people it serves. Those are different markets, and only the first is a benefit the sponsor could renegotiate for its workforce.

WHEREAS Since the early 1980's, Pennsylvania's Medicaid Managed Care Program has received national acclaim as a model healthcare delivery system; and WHEREAS thanks to the introduction of Managed Care Organizations (MCO's) in the early 1980's, Pennsylvania's Medicaid recipients have been afforded the opportunity to receive improved healthcare benefits at a tremendous savings to the State of Pennsylvania; and WHEREAS most recently, the Secretary of Pennsylvania's Department of Public Welfare, Estelle B. Richman, acting in concert with the Rendell Administration, proposed a new Medicaid healthcare program known as ACCESS Plus, with hopes that this plan will replace the current Medicaid Managed Care program in its entirety; and WHEREAS if implemented, ACCESS Plus could potentially disrupt the healthcare benefits of over 71,000 current Medicaid recipients, many of whom are either disabled or affected by chronic diseases; and WHEREAS these disruptions will include the carving out of all pharmacy benefits, the elimination of Nurse Case Managers for disabled and chronically ill patients, decreased provider participation, and delayed payments to MCO's; and WHEREAS while the administration reports that this change in coverage will equate to an approximate $68 million dollars in savings, such claims seem exaggerated when viewed in light of assured increased emergency room visits during the time of program transition and the uncertainty of pharmaceutical rebates to the State; and WHEREAS it is virtually impossible to estimate a dollar amount that would accurately reflect the negative impact that such a change would have upon the quality of life that is presently enjoyed by thousands of Pennsylvanians. NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Council of the City of Pittsburgh does hereby wish to join its voice with those members of Pennsylvania's State Senate and its House of Representatives who have expressed their disapproval of the ACCESS Plus program, as is stated in Senate Resolution 60 and House Resolution 242. AND BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Council of the City of Pittsburgh does hereby also wish to urge the Secretary of the Department of Public Welfare and the Rendell administration to retain their current voluntary Managed Care program, as this program has a proven track record of creating healthier communities at reasonable costs.

WHEREAS, in 2002, the adultBasic program was created to provide health care for lower income Pennsylvanians who did not receive health insurance from their employers and earned too much money to qualify for Medicaid and were too young to receive Medicare; and WHEREAS, adultBasic, which covered major surgery but not dental costs or prescriptions, was so popular that by late 2010, it covered 42,625 Pennsylvanians and had a waiting list exceeding 400,000; and WHEREAS, Governor Rendell expanded adultBasic by negotiating voluntary payments from Blue Cross insurers but the Corbett Administration ended adultBasic because the insurers withdrew their support and it was decided that the program was too expensive; and WHEREAS, and in concert with this decision, the Pennsylvania General Assembly passed Act 46 of 2010 and Act of 2011 which allowed funding from the Pennsylvania Tobacco Settlement Act to be diverted from adultBasic; and WHEREAS, Attorneys William Caroselli and David Senoff filed a lawsuit on behalf of 100 former adultBasic recipients based on the argument that the new legislation violated the Tobacco Settlement Act and the Pennsylvania Constitution and that money from the tobacco settlement was to be "used to make Pennsylvanians healthier and provide for the health of future generations of Pennsylvanians", with the Act specifying that 30 percent of the proceeds would be shared between adultBasic and Medicaid for workers with disabilities; and, WHEREAS, in a March 4th majority opinion by President Judge Dan Pellegrini, the Commonwealth Court struck down the legislation that redirected tobacco settlement funds from adultBasic as unconstitutional and ruled that the Corbett Administration, beginning with the 2013-14 fiscal year, must allocate 30 percent of the settlement funds to adultBasic or a similar program, as well as to the Medical Assistance for Workers with Disabilities program.
