|
0002| 43rd legislature - STATE OF NEW MEXICO - first session, 1997
|
0003| INTRODUCED BY
|
0004| DANICE PICRAUX
|
0005|
|
0006|
|
0007|
|
0008| FOR THE HEALTH CARE REFORM COMMITTEE
|
0009|
|
0010| A JOINT MEMORIAL
|
0011| REQUESTING THE NEW MEXICO HEALTH POLICY COMMISSION TO WORK WITH
|
0012| APPROPRIATE EXECUTIVE AGENCIES AND LEGISLATIVE COMMITTEES TO
|
0013| ESTABLISH MEASURES TO ACHIEVE STATE GOALS FOR HEALTH BUDGETING
|
0014| AND PLANNING PURPOSES, TO IDENTIFY ELECTRONIC REPORTING
|
0015| REQUIREMENTS ON HEALTH CARE FOR ALL GOVERNMENT AGENCIES AND TO
|
0016| REQUIRE TRACKING AND REPORTING OF HEALTH CARE REVENUE STREAMS.
|
0017|
|
0018| WHEREAS, there should be performance measures for health
|
0019| programs that help the state to evaluate the effectiveness of
|
0020| its health care delivery system and determine whether the
|
0021| state's health policy is being achieved; and
|
0022| WHEREAS, widespread variation exists among health
|
0023| facilities and programs in the measures used for reporting
|
0024| program impacts; and
|
0025| WHEREAS, a lack of agreement in state government on what
|
0001| constitutes health care has led to fragmented data and limited
|
0002| ability to analyze, plan, develop budgets and demonstrate
|
0003| accountability for health care services; and
|
0004| WHEREAS, administrative, overhead and non-direct service
|
0005| costs are not separately accounted for in most government
|
0006| health care programs, making it virtually impossible to assess
|
0007| resources used for direct services; and
|
0008| WHEREAS, under current statutes, counties are only
|
0009| required to report on the amount and use of their indigent
|
0010| claims fund, which reportedly reflects only about thirty-two
|
0011| percent of county revenues supporting health care; and
|
0012| WHEREAS, the department of finance and administration has
|
0013| the authority to require more complete data from counties on
|
0014| total revenues used for health care purposes; and
|
0015| WHEREAS, availability of regularly collected data on
|
0016| government revenues used for health care would enhance state
|
0017| planning and the generation of policy and budget development
|
0018| without substantially increasing administrative costs or
|
0019| reporting burdens;
|
0020| NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE
|
0021| STATE OF NEW MEXICO that the New Mexico health policy
|
0022| commission be requested to work together with appropriate
|
0023| executive agencies and legislative committees to establish and
|
0024| implement standard measures to achieve state health goals for
|
0025| budgeting and planning purposes, to identify electronic
|
0001| reporting requirements on health care for all government
|
0002| agencies and to require tracking and reporting of health care
|
0003| revenue streams; and
|
0004| BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that protocols should be
|
0005| established for the standardization and electronic reporting of
|
0006| core health data elements to the New Mexico health policy
|
0007| commission by government entities providing or paying for
|
0008| health care services; and
|
0009| BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the department of finance and
|
0010| administration, in coordination with the New Mexico health
|
0011| policy commission, cooperate to encourage or require counties
|
0012| to report on all county revenues used for health care to
|
0013| include all sources of revenue and appropriate specifics on the
|
0014| expenditures and services provided; and
|
0015| BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the New Mexico health policy
|
0016| commission report on its progress to the appropriate
|
0017| legislative interim committee by October 1, 1997; and
|
0018| BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that a copy of this memorial be
|
0019| sent to the secretary of finance and administration, the
|
0020| chairman of the legislative finance committee, the chairman of
|
0021| the New Mexico health policy commission and the director of the
|
0022| New Mexico association of counties.
