Pre-natal CAWEM Expansion Program
CAWEM Plus consumers are not enrolled in
a CCO
CAWEM Plus consumers will remain on an open card
CAWEM Plus consumers can still see their regular doctor if they accept an open card
CWX Consumers not Enrolled
C/D of both CWM and CWX
CWX coding tells MMIS to provide CAWEM Plus CM automatically sends an approval notice
when CWX added (2D)
N/R of both CWX and DUE the CWX date is the month in which 10-day
notice period lands the DUE date is the month that the
consumer is due to deliver
CWX coding
If the Consumer’s expected due date is
on or before the 15th: Code a CWX of that month
If the Consumer’s expected due date is after the 15th: Code a CWX of the following month
CWX N/R Coding
Henriquetta is due to deliver her baby on 10/09/13. She is eligible for OSIPM CWM. What coding will you have on the case and what dates will you use?
Coding Example
CWX coding for 10/09/2013 DUE date
CWX coding for 10/09/2013 DUE date
Maritza is expected to deliver her child on
10/16/13. She is eligible for OSIPM CWM. What coding will you have on the case and what dates will you use
Coding Example
CWX coding for 10/16/13 DUE date
CWX coding for 10/16/13 DUE date
CM approval notice is also a reduction notice
Mother’s benefits reduced to CAWEM the day after the
pregnancy ends
Baby is an AEN
5503 will add the AEN when they are notified of the
birth
If the agency is not notified timely that the pregnancy
has ended, the CWX N/R date triggers a reduction
notice (86B)
When notified timely that pregnancy ended, CAWEM Plus reduced to CAWEM
Use a “MEDI” action on the CM case and
reduce the mother to CAWEM. The effective date will be the newborn’s DOB
Change mom’s start date to match the newborn’s DOB. Her benefits will reduce to CAWEM the next day
Remove CWX C/D and N/R coding
Send a MEDC form to 5503 to notify them of the birth of the baby
Coding changes when baby is born
CWX N/R end date will trigger CM
reduction notice (84B)
Benefits are reduced to CAWEM on the first of next month
What if the agency is not notified of the birth?
Maria is a pregnant CWX consumer; the
new baby is due May 13, 2013 DUE and CWX N/R date is 05/13 If the agency is not notified of birth:
10-day reduction notice will automatically be sent to reduce Maria’s medical to CAWEM for June 1
Example of CWX automatic reduction notice
Consumers still have 60 days protected
CAWEM eligibility based on the DUE N/R date
Restore benefits to CWX and update coding if she contacts the branch and is still pregnant
Example, cont.
The worker ends the consumer’s CWX
benefits for the 1st of the month after the 10-day notice period and sends the CMRCWXR or SPRCWXR notice of reduction through NOTM
The consumer remains on CWM through their protected 60-day post partum eligibility period
What if the consumer’s pregnancy ends before their
DUE month?
Enter a “COMPUTE” action for the first of
the month following 10-day notice period Remove the CWX C/D and N/R codes Update the DUE N/R to match the
month/year the pregnancy ended Update the medical start date to the first
of the next month Send the CMRCWXR or SPRCWXR notice
of reduction
System actions when pregnancy ends early
CMR2CWM and SPR2CWM: Reduce to
CAWEM; not in pilot
Example: Margaret is due December 15. However, we’re notified in November that she lost the baby. Send the 10-day CMR2CWM reduction notice and compute to remove CWX coding the first of the month
after the 10-day notice period.
