a) Planning Areas
1) For HSAs I, II, III, IV, V, X and XI, the
HSA is the planning area;
2) For
HSAs VI, VII, VIII and IX, medical-surgical and pediatric care planning areas
A-1 through A-14 are the planning areas.
b) Age Groups
For acute mental illness, all ages.
c) Utilization Target
Facilities that provide an acute mental illness service
should operate those beds at or above an annual minimum occupancy rate of
85%.
d) Bed Capacity
Acute Mental Illness bed capacity for facilities not operated
by the Department of Human Services is the total number of acute mental illness
beds for a facility as determined by HFSRB pursuant to this Part. For
facilities operated by the Department of Human Services, all mental illness
beds are counted as chronic beds. State facilities can provide acute mental
illness care, but for purposes of review, only the service, not the beds, is
recognized as acute.
e)
Need Determination for Bed Not Operated by the Department of Human Services
The following methodology is utilized to determine the
projected number of acute mental illness beds needed in a planning area:
1) A bed need of .11 beds per 1,000 projected
population is established in each planning area as the minimum bed
need.
2) Calculate the planning
area's experienced use rate by dividing the number of patient days in the base
year by the base year population in thousands. Multiply the experienced use
rate by the population estimate in thousands to obtain estimated patient days.
Divide the estimated patient days by the number of days in the population
projection (which is five years from the base year) to determine the projected
average daily census (ADC). Divide the estimated ADC by .85 (85% occupancy
factor) to obtain a projected bed need in the planning area.
3) When the projected bed need is less than
the minimum bed need, the minimum bed need is the projected bed need. When the
estimated bed need is greater than the minimum bed need, the estimated bed need
is the projected bed need.
4)
Calculate the number of additional beds needed in each area by subtracting the
number of existing beds from the projected bed need.
5) Subtract the number of existing beds in
the planning area from the projected planning area bed need to determine the
projected number of excess (surplus) beds or the projected need for additional
beds (deficit) in the area.
f) No bed need formula for facilities
operated by the Department of Human Services has been developed. It is the
responsibility of the applicant to document the need for a project by complying
with the Review Criteria contained in 77 Ill. Adm. Code
1110.
