1 Aneurin Bevan Health Board Chronic Conditions Management 1 Introduction: This paper presents the Health Board s position in implementing Welsh Government s Chronic Conditions Framework, the Local Delivery Plan and the Service and Commissioning Directives. The paper includes: An overview of Designed to Improve Health and Manage Chronic Conditions. An overview of the Service Development and Commissioning Directives. The implementation of the Health Board s Local Delivery Plan and Service Development and Commissioning Directives. The Board is asked to note the contents of this report. Financial Assessment and link to Financial Recovery Plan Risk Assessment Annual Operating Framework Standards for Health Services Wales Equality Impact Assessment Chronic Conditions Management (CCM) will be managed through core services and through service re-design using existing resources. The Health Board needs to progress the Chronic Conditions Management agenda to ensure appropriate, timely care to patients to reduce reliance on secondary care. Failure to do so will impact on emergency medical admissions and resources. Delivering the CCM agenda will support the Tier 1 priorities relating to Setting the Direction, Unscheduled Care, Stroke, Efficiency and Productivity. The Tier 2 priorities relating to Prevention and Health Promotion, Primary Care, Unscheduled Care, End of Life Care, and Clinical Leadership. The report relates to the following Standards for Health Services - 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 9, 16, 19, 2 and 23. Considered throughout the work programme. 1

2 2 Background 2.1 Designed to Improve Health and the Management of Chronic Conditions The Welsh Government set the strategic direction for Chronic Conditions Management in 28 with the publication of Designed to Improve Health and the Management of Chronic Conditions in Wales and its supporting model. It was recognised that there was an over reliance on traditional reactive models of care, which included hospital admissions for acute exacerbations of conditions that could be managed in the community setting. The framework described a model of care, which included self care and focused on managing conditions proactively. The model described a planned and integrated approach, which was based on anticipatory care and evidence based interventions. Welsh Government developed a three year Improvement Plan, which aimed to: Integrate and more effectively plan, manage and, where appropriate, reconfigure existing services and support, to improve service delivery to patients. Improve health and well being and minimise the risks associated with living with a chronic condition, while supporting and empowering people to maximise their independence in all areas of life. Simplify access to services and improve communication between patients and professionals. Reduce levels of morbidity and avoidable emergency admissions to hospital. Redress the balance of service provision across primary, community, social and secondary care. Provide comprehensive, consistent, preventative and anticipatory care. Build on the strengths within primary care to integrate services across organisational boundaries. Help clarify the actions needed to implement the CCM Model and Framework and set out a new vision for CCM services in Wales. 2.2 Service Development and Commissioning Directives for Chronic Respiratory Conditions, Arthritis and Musculoskeletal Conditions, Epilepsy, Diabetes and Chronic Non Malignant Pain The Service Development and Commissioning Directives were developed to give the strategic direction for redesigning the care of chronic conditions in line with the Chronic Conditions Management Model and Framework and the CCM Service Improvement Plan. The Directives set 2

3 out a range of actions and identified timescales. The Health Board was required to achieve 95% in all four Directives by 31 March Aneurin Bevan Health Board s Local Delivery Plan: To respond to the above, the previous organisations developed a Local Delivery Plan for Chronic Conditions Management. This plan included the following: A vision of how chronic conditions management would be improved over the two year period. Alignment to the high level aims of the Chronic Conditions Management Framework and Annual Operating Framework targets for 29/21. The delivery of the national targets for 29/1 and the wider policy requirements to improve chronic conditions services. A single Improvement Plan for the six predecessor organisations. Appendix 1 gives a comparison of QOF Prevalence data between 29/1 and 21/ Implementation of the Local Delivery Plan A Chronic Conditions Management Steering Group was formed to develop and implement the Local Delivery Plan and the Service Development and Commissioning Directives. This Group reported to the Primary and Community Care Board and included representation from all Divisions, Locality Chronic Conditions Management Leads, Clinical Directors, Primary Care and Human Resources. The Group also developed sub-groups for Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, Diabetes, Epilepsy and Case Management. The Case Management Group relates to the proactive management of patients at high risk of hospital admission. This workstream linked with the Unscheduled Care Transformation Board Primary Care workstream to develop a risk stratification tool to retrospectively review and manage patients with high numbers of emergency medical admissions. The aim of which was to decrease the frequency of admissions and deliver more appropriate services to patients and their carers. The risk stratification process has involved: An audit on a 12 month rolling period. Grouping of data into practices in order to follow up in a comprehensive manner. Identification of patients with more than three attendances. 3

4 Exclusion of those patients with no attendances within six months over a 12 month period. A review of patients every two weeks to discuss progress at Locality level. Allocation of case managers and agreed actions to support these patients. The outcomes of this work to date have been: A standardised process to case management across the Health Board. A process in which to highlight and expedite complex cases. An opportunity for shared learning and support across the Health Board. Improved communication and co-operation between all health and social care professionals. Detailed information on the numbers of patients, their conditions and behaviour for localities, GP Practices and Neighbourhood Care Networks. Improved targeting of resources to patients with the greatest need within the localities. Appendix 2 gives an overview of the audits completed to date. The next step in analysing this data is to look at cross referencing this information with list size and prevalence data to establish any patterns. As more patients are case managed the results of the data analysis will enable a profile of potential key risk areas for admission and attendance. NCN s will need to look at the data around Primary Care referrals to establish actions and work will be required around those patients who attend directly to Accident and Emergency Departments. 4 Current Position: 4.1 Local Delivery Plan Appendix 3 gives the position at March 211 in implementing the Local Delivery Plan. The ongoing actions include: Continue to support the Diabetes Planning and Development Group, Epilepsy and Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Groups linking with other work programmes, where appropriate such as the Unscheduled Care Transformation Board and Medicines Management Board. Continuing to support the Aneurin Bevan Health Board/Glaxo Smith Kline Primary Care Education Programme. 4

5 Continue to refine case management and the Health Board approach to frequent fliers, through the Locality Community Flow Groups and Community Resource Teams. This will be expanded to include care homes. Continue to develop clinical leadership through the development of Neighbourhood Care Network Clinical Leads and the wider organisational clinical network. Deliver the High Impact Changes and actions in the 211/12 Annual Quality Framework. Continue to monitor performance relating to chronic conditions management through the performance frameworks for the Neighbourhood Care Networks. 4.2 Service development and Commissioning Directives The graphs below highlight the Health Board s position and its relation to the All Wales Position at the end of March 211. The established groups to implement these Directives are all continuing with their work programmes and are being linked to the Neighbourhood Care Network Clinical Leads to maximise integration across all care settings.

6 5 Next Steps: The Chronic Conditions Local Delivery Plan and transitional work programme, supported by Welsh Government, ended in March 211. The High Impact Changes: Delivering High Quality, Cost Effective Care in the Community sets out a framework that will enable the high impact changes to be implemented to support the delivery of high quality care for patients with chronic conditions in the community. This Chronic Conditions Management agenda also continues to be progressed through the implementation of Setting the Direction: The Strategic Delivery Programme for Primary Care and Community Services. This will be monitored through the NHS Wales Delivery Framework for 211/12. Delivering the CCM agenda will support the: Tier 1 priorities relating to Setting the Direction, Unscheduled Care, Stroke, Efficiency and Productivity. Tier 2 priorities relating to Prevention and Health Promotion, Primary Care, Unscheduled Care, End of Life Care, and Clinical Leadership. The work programme for chronic conditions management is currently being reviewed to ensure full integration across the Health Board, reflecting the development of Neighbourhood Care Networks and General Medical Services Quality and Outcomes Framework Quality and Productivity Indicators relating to reducing emergency medical admissions and prescribing.

8 Case Management Frequent Fliers Audits 1 & 2 (25 patients per cohort) Appendix 2 Audit 1 collated information on the first 5 patients with multiple admissions or attendances that were case managed from each Locality. Audit 2 collated information from a further 5 patients in each Locality ( Newport collated 24 patients) This gave a total of 474 patients to analyse trends and progress to date. Results Case Management Status- First Audit Green Amber Red Blaenau Gwent Caerphilly Monmouthshire Newport Torfaen Case Management Status- Second Audit Green Amber Red Blaenau Gwent Caerphilly Monmouthshire Newport Torfaen 8

9 Case Management Status- Total Green Amber Red Blaenau Gwent Caerphilly Monmouthshire Newport Torfaen The first audit shows the status of the first 25 patients that have been case managed using the Frequent Fliers criteria. A green status shows that since intervention there have been no further admissions or attendances for a full 6 months, Amber shows no further admissions/attendances since intervention. At the time of the audit these patients have not yet reached the full 6 months but are over a month. Red shows patients who have continued to present despite intervention. Due to the fact that Amber status is a positive result and patients can remain in Amber status at 5 months and 3 weeks, it is helpful to also view these patients in terms of a positive outcome to intervention and no change following intervention. Overall Outcome since Intervention- First Audit Positive No Change Blaenau Gwent Caerphilly Monmouthshire Newport Torfaen 9

Newport s results in the second audit and therefore total outcome are not as clear due to a smaller number of patients included in their audit. Those patients within the positive results are actual reductions in admissions and attendances. It should be noted that these indicate each patient and these patients have had an average of 5.4 attendances each in a 12 month period prior to intervention. 1

Frequent flier work stream will need to continue. 8.Develop financial frameworks to monitor the impact of developments on overall team and organisational performance 9.Agree model for case management and implement across Gwent Identify the baseline financial positions across the 4 levels Develop systems to monitor the impact of the CCM Model implementation on acute services and reduction in the number of Emergency Medical Admissions. Identify current services in place across Gwent. Site specific teams to agree principles for case management and Clinical Governance framework. Implement model across Gwent See performance developments above. The impact of the CCM model on acute services will be measured via these performance measures. The model has been agreed and needs within each Locality identified. Core competencies for level 3 and 4 have been identified and with HR involvement have fed into the district nursing strategy and frailty work streams. Tier 1 core competencies are being identified by public health. The model of case management has been joined to the frequent fliers work stream in This work will need to be linked to NCN s as part of their performance framework This work will need to continue linking performance with, finance, case management and frequent flier work streams. This work will need to be linked to NCN s as part of their performance framework Locality Community flow groups and case management group will need to continue until fully established NCN s can oversee the frequent flier agenda. NCN s will need to look at engagement across Primary Care in establishing core case management skill and competencies for practice nurses.9 level 2) 15

16 order for effective working and to avoid duplication. Links with Care homes will need to be progressed. Pilot to be carried out within Blaenau Gwent Locality. 1.Implement PRISM/Population risk stratification tool in all General Practices Develop a plan to implement PRISM / Risk Stratification Tool in all practices. Develop and agree LES for Risk Stratification, including the introduction of Audit+ software in all Practices. PRISM has not been rolled out on an all Wales basis due to issues identified as part of the CCM Demonstrator programme. ABHB has implemented a retrospective risk tool to manage frequent fliers. Case management needs to be continued to be supported and developed as part of the High Impact Changes. See 9 Predictive risk tools need to be implemented once PRISM is available or alternative method identified. Locality groups are feeding into the case management sub group of the CCM Steering group fortnightly. This reports via the CCM Steering Group and Unscheduled Care Board.( Commenced March 211) WAST- need to establish links and protocols and share risk stratification tools Mental Health risk stratification work to date has highlighted this as an area that is impacting on frequent admissions. E.g. 1 practice had 95 admissions over a 12 month period from 7 patients. 16

17 11.Develop process for care co-ordination of those patients identified at being at risk admission Agree Job Descriptions and Preliminary Operational Policy for Care Coordination to include Clinical Governance framework. Recruit to Posts Agree Networked Cluster Groups across Gwent, identifying key Clinical leads. Separate and new roles have not been developed due to financial and resource implications and the strategic direction to integrate as part of core services across the organisation. The case management group has developed core competencies and skills (linking in with frailty, Public health. district nursing strategy) Care Homes and Primary Care Nursing roles will also need to be developed in respect of core competencies required to case manage CCM patients. This will be integral to the work of the NCN s 12.Implement the care pathway for Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease 13.Agree plan for care pathway developments for other diseases 14.Develop plans to support core services through engagement, education and training throughout 29/211 to support service change and ensure sustainability of case management and care coordination Monitor clinical, organisational and patient identified outcomes (to be agreed at COPD Workshop in March 29). Identify any potential impact on the current workforce addressing and education, role redesign and reconfiguration issues to include Clinical Governance Framework. Agree programme of Care Pathway development based upon Map of Medicine, linked to IHC and NLIAH CCM work stream. Evaluate process used to develop COPD Pathway. Identify Core Services involved in CCM Ensure appropriate representation on all site specific and care coordination groups. Further development work has been undertaken between December 21 and February 211. This has led to the submission of the completed Pathway for launch and publication on Map of Medicine. Completed February 211. Pathway development taken place around Generic Chronic Conditions, TIA, Stroke and cardiac. National Decision that Map of Medicine will not continue after March 21 Appropriate representation has been involved to ensure sustainability of case management into core services. The Case Management sub group has looked at core competencies and training needs across the 4 tiers of CCM. See 9 and 1 17
