The Long-Term Care Quality Improvement Program (LTC QIP), established in 2016, is a pay-for-performance program for invited long-term care facilities serving Medi-Cal members in the Partnership HealthPlan of California (PHC) network. The goal of this program is to improve the quality of long-term care provided to PHC members by offering participating facilities substantial financial incentives in exchange for meeting selected performance targets. In collaboration with LTC representatives, a simple, meaningful measurement set has been developed and includes measures in the following domains:
- Clinical
- Functional Status
- Resource Use
- Operations & Satisfaction
