(a) Certain DSRIP projects are eligible for an adjustment to the DSRIP project's transition year MLIU QPI goal. These DSRIP projects include:
  (1) a DSRIP project that HHSC identifies as underperforming on MLIU in the initial demonstration period;
  (2) a DSRIP project that is reporting on individuals or encounters that meet the MLIU definition for the initial demonstration period, but will not meet the MLIU definition for the extension period; and
  (3) any other DSRIP project that HHSC determines has a strong justification for an adjustment.
(b) Performers of a DSRIP project as described in subsection (a) of this section may, by a date to be determined by HHSC, request an adjustment to the DSRIP project's transition year MLIU QPI goal.
(c) Performers with a total value less than $250,000 in demonstration year (DY) 5 may increase their total value to up to $250,000 for each subsequent DY across Categories 1-4. Categories 1-4 are each increased proportionately if a performer chooses this option. Performers eligible for such an option must make this choice by a date to be determined by HHSC.
