Formation

In order to assure that the consumers we work with everyday are well served under the transition to Community HealthChoices, members of the Rehabilitation and Community Providers Association (RCPA) formed the Rehabilitation and Community Providers Service Organization (RCPSO). Based on the successful model of the Community Behavior HealthCare Network of Pennsylvania (CBHNP), a provider-based solution for behavioral health managed care, RCP-SO is a provider-owned managed care entity for populations served by the Office of Long Term Living and the Office of Developmental Programs, respectively.

RCP-SO has a separate business structure, by-laws, and Board of Directors. 

RCP-SO has Single Signer Authority (SSA) and will accept risk and a capitated payment to manage the BI long-term services and supports for Individuals with brain injury, and offer a conflict-free statewide network of SCEs and PAS providers.

Philosophy

Community Based

Responsive Care Coordination

​Quality Monitoring
and Compliance

High quality long term services and supports requires accessibility that can only be provided on a local level. Our integrated care coordination model and consolidated reporting empowers our statewide network of community based providers to implement performance standards and focus on outcomes, rather than historical waiver participation.  

Our care coordination model is responsive to the individual, population, and payment modality. We utilize a “shared function” model that allows RCP-SO to serve as an extension of the MCO care management team. 

​Standardized and consistent data is essential to drive performance, maintain quality oversight, and produce accurate reporting to the commonwealth. RCP-SO has made data management a major focus to help MCOs overcome a likely and significant challenge.
