By Linda Bock WORCESTER TELEGRAM GAZETTE WORCESTER MCAS test results for the Goddard School of Science and Technology were invalidated yesterday after a joint investigation by state and local officials found that educators at Goddard provided students with inappropriate coaching during testing. Officials from the Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education and Worcester public schools discovered through interviews that school personnel who administered the 2010 MCAS tests reviewed student work on the test, coached students to add to their responses, and wrote answers or portions of answers that were not the words of students. All of these actions are prohibited by state testing protocols.

Student results in English language arts, mathematics, and science and technology in grades 3 through 6 will be invalidated, meaning the results will be permanently deleted and no scores will be reported. Education Commissioner Mitchell D. Chester said in a news release yesterday that educators at Goddard broke with the established testing rules, causing the state to take action and void the test results. "I take this sanction very seriously," Melinda Boone, the super- with a history of performance," Boone said. "While this set of scores we may not be able to use, there are other tests and measures that tell us that students are doing very well there." The school has worked hard to improve.

In 2009, the majority of its students scored below proficient in every subject. Boone said she assured Chester that the district will work with state officials to ensure that all educators at Goddard and in all Worcester public schools are properly trained in MCAS testing procedures. The next round of MCAS testing will take place in March. Many parents interviewed yesterday were supportive of the teachers and administrators at the Goddard School, though a few had questions about how the news would affect their children. Doug McArthur, whose daughters are in the fourth and sixth grades, said he still supports the school.

"They both worked so hard," he said. "The school is great, though, and they never miss a day. I still have confidence in the school." McArthur said teachers have instituted several programs that have helped improve his daughters' performance. "For kids to enjoy going to school, they must be doing something right," McArthur said. intendent of Worcester public schools, said yesterday.

She said she met with faculty members yesterday to tell them the news, and that a letter to parents and guardians was sent home with students. Boone said no teachers had been singled out, and none of the teaching staff have been disciplined. "As superintendent, I am very aware of the need to follow established procedures to the letter," Boone said. "While coaching to encourage best student performance during the instructional day is effective and expected, that same level of coaching cannot occur during the MCAS testing." The Goddard community knew in September that the scores were suppressed by the state for review. At the time, only third-grade math scores were questioned.

Now, all of the scores have been tossed out. "This is a very strong school Take a trip. 'Different people came up to me and said, "Was it me you were talking about?"

C.118G and in accordance with M.G.L.

c. 30A, as amended, a public hearing will be held on Wednesday, February 16 2011 at 10:00 Alvl at the Division of Health Care Finance and Policy Two Boylston Street, 5th floor, Boston, MA relative to the adoption of amendments to: 1 14.3 CMR 14.00: Dental Services The proposed amendments add public health dental hy-gienists (PHDH) as eligible providers of dental services. The addition of PHDHs is consistent with the provisions of Chapter 530 of the Acts of 2008, which added PHDH as a new category of dental professional, and the Board of Registration in Dentistry's PHDH practice standards. A PHDH that meets the Board's standards, including an affiliation with a qualified dentist, and provides services in public health settings, will be permitted to be reimbursed for services rendered. The amendments also change the payment rate for Code D9410 from $24 to $36 for house or extended care facility calls to adults, consistent with the current payment rate for such calls to children.

The revised code definition limits billing for this code to once per facility per day, rather than the former billing policy that permitted the code to be billed per patient, consistent with MassHealth billing changes for these services. The amendments retain the current rates for all other dental services. The Division adopted these amendments as emergency amendments effective January 22, 201 1 The Division is proposing these amendments to ensure that the payment rates are consistent with efficiency, economy, and quality of care, while maintaining access to services. It is estimated that aggregate annual expenditures by MassHealth will increase by approximately $1.6 million as a result of this proposal. There is no fiscal impact on cities and towns.

The amendments do not impose new costs on small businesses; the impact on small business dental providers depends on the volume and mix of services provided. Interested parties are encouraged to submit comments on these amendments. All persons desiring to be heard on this matter are hereby notified to appear at the designated time and place. Persons intending to speak will be afforded an early opportunity to testify if the Division receives notice by 5:00 pm on Tuesday February 15, 2011. All others will be heard subsequently.

7 and 12 and pursuant to M.G.L. c. 30A s. 3. The Division describes the substance of the proposed actions as amendments to regulations found at 130 CMR 437.000 (Hospice Service), 433.000 (Physician Services), 424.000 (Podiatrist Services), and 405.000 (Community Health Center Services).

1. 130 CMR 437.000 (Hospice Services). The Medicaid hospice benefit for children has changed as a result of the federal Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) passed in March of 2010. PPACA contains a provision instructing states that Medicaid-eligible children under the age of 21 who have elected the hospice benefit will be allowed to receive curative treatment. The bill does not change the criteria for electing hospice services, regardless of age.

Small Business Impact Statement: To the best of the Division's knowledge, a large percentage of the Hospice providers fit the definition of a small business. Compliance with the proposed regulation is likely to have a negligible impact on provider costs. The proposed regulation does not include performance standards. To the best of its knowledge, the Division believes that the proposed regulation does not duplicate or conflict with other state regulations. To the best of its knowledge, the Division believes the proposed regulation is likely to neither deter nor encourage the formation of new businesses in the Commonwealth.

2. The proposed amendments to both 130 CMR 433.000 (Physician Services) and 424.000 (Podiatrist Services) introduce a new policy for global payment of surgeries (global surgical package). Under the new policy, payment for a surgical procedure includes a standard package of preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative services. The services included within the global surgical package would not be payable separately, regardless of the setting in which those services were performed. In addition, the proposed regulations describe payment for multiple surgeries and endoscopies, add-on surgical procedures, bilateral procedures, surgical assistants, team surgery and co-surgery (two surgeons).

130 CMR 424.000 (Podiatrist Services) also contains minor changes to update terminology. 3. The proposed amendments to 130 CMR 433.000 (Physician Services) and 405.000 (Community Health Center Services) would allow reimbursement for fluoride varnish applied by medical assistants under the supervision of physicians. The proposed regulations also codify the agen-cys current policy that community health centers may not bill for the dental enhancement fee for application of fluoride varnish alone or in conjunction with a medical visit. Small Business Impact Statement: Approximately 40 percent of the physicians, 100 percent of podiatrists, and 45 percent of community health centers are estimated to qualify as small businesses.

Compliance with the proposed regulation does not increase the providers' administrative costs. Performance standards are appropriate for healthcare provider activities. To the best of its knowledge, the Division believes that the proposed regulations do not duplicate or conflict with other state regulations. To the best of its knowledge, the Division believes that the proposed regulation is likely to neither deter nor encourage the formation of new businesses in the Commonwealth. It is anticipated that these amendments will not go into effect before April 1,2011.

All persons desiring to submit data, views, or arguments concerning these proposed actions may submit Ihem in writing to the Medicaid Director, EOHHS, One Ashburton Place, Room 1109, Boston, Massachusetts 02108, or e-mail them to masshealthpublicnoticestate.ma.us. E-mailed comments should contain the sender's name, mailing address, and organization or affiliation, if any. Comments will be accepted through February 11, 2011. All persons desiring to review the current draft of the proposed actions may go to www.mass.govmasshealth proposedregs or request a copy in writing or in person from the MassHealth Publications Unit, 100 Hancock Street, 6th Floor, Quincy Massachusetts 02171. The Division may adopt a revised version of the proposed actions taking into account relevant comments and any other practical alternatives that come to the Division's attention.

Poirier said closing the chamber's fashion loophole by specifying that "members and staff shall be required to dress in proper and appropriate attire" has nothing to do with money or couture, but rather "the dignity of, the whole aura of, the State House and the history of all that it means." Hygiene, grooming, and "attention to detail" are all that she asks, "to set the bar a little higher for everyone else." House Democrats, taking no issue for granted, debated the rule during a closed-door caucus before agreeing, with the blessing of Speaker Robert A. DeLeo, to embrace it on the House floor.

Brewer was vice chairman of the Ways and Means Committee and represents a sprawling district with 29 rural towns. He has been active on legislation affecting veterans, the mentally retarded, and dairy farmers, among others.

He said that he and his colleagues are not inclined to support tax increases and that slashing aid for schools and for cities and towns cannot be ruled out, but is "the last thing that's on the table." "I need to be the bearer of truth, and this will be a truthful budget," he said. In November, an independent investigator identified Brewer as the Legislature's second most frequent sponsor of candidates for jobs in the state Probation Department, which is the subject of several investigations for patronage and rigged hiring practices.

Brewer, a veteran lawmaker from Central Massachusetts, was named yesterday to one of the state Senate's most powerful positions, the chamber's chief budget writer, charged with crafting a nearly $28 billion spending plan in the months ahead. Senate President Therese Murray, handing out committee assignments for the new legislative session, named Brewer to be chairman of the Senate Ways and Means Committee, filling a vacancy left when Steven C. Panagiotakos, a Lowell Democrat, retired this year.
