Substance Abuse Non-Hospital Short Term Rehabilitation
CBHNP utilizes a provider profiling process that is an important provider-level quality
improvement activity, as well as an opportunity to internally track and trend data over a
set period of time to identify possible areas of improvement. It is also a tool to make
meaningful comparisons based on a varied data set including claims data, authorization
data, quality reports and demographic information. Provider profiling results have been
compiled using data from January 1, 2012 to December 31, 2012.
Substance Abuse Non-Hospital Short Term Rehabilitation Services include twenty-four
hour professionally directed, medically monitored, evaluation, care and treatment for
addicted Members in acute distress.

readmission rate for the zero to seventeen age group was 1.41% and 4.91% for the
eighteen and over age group. Providers that had a total readmission rate below the

throughout the year. Although these meetings are not mandatory, they include valuable
information for providers, and all providers are encouraged to attend. However, during
2012 there were zero trainings offered to SA NH Short Term Rehab providers.
Satisfaction
Member satisfaction was measured by the percentage of Members satisfied with the
outcomes of complaints that were filed. The overall Members satisfaction related to
complaints for the Network was 100%.
Target Criteria
Although all aspects of performance are important, the specific targets of an average
length of stay less than the Network average, a thirty day readmission rate less than the
Network average, and zero Credentialing Corrective Actions since 01/01/12 are goals that
all providers should strive to achieve. The following providers in each Contract met all
three target criteria.
