18 Future of OT Services & Medicare Payment Consumers d/t QRP Measures OT Services staff hours VBP Measures Organization Reimbursement Dollars Incentives for Health Systems Maximize staff that have an impact on quality measures Minimize staff that have little or no impact on quality Focus on collaboration and documentation that identifies value Identify gaps and improve care using quality measures

19 Examples of QRP & VBP Measures Functional Outcome Measure: Change in Self- Care Score (based on Section GG) Percent of Residents Experiencing One or More Falls with Major Injury Percent of Patients or Residents with Pressure Ulcers that are New or Worsened

20 #1 January 1, 2019

21 Quality Payment Program (QPP) Medicare Part B Outpatient (not facility based yet) In 2019, Best performers can earn +7% to 2021 payments. Worst performers can earn -7%. Low Volume Threshold determines eligibility 60 OT NPIs mandated to participate 4,400 OT NPIs eligible to opt-in

22 QPP Categories In 2019, OT will likely only be scored on 2 of the 4 categories: Quality Report 6 measures (1 outcome or high priority). Scored based on performance. Improvement Activities Complete 90-days of quality improvement using selected activities Cost Compares the cost of services to peers Promoting Interoperability Measures based on the use of certified EHR technology

23 QPP (MIPS) Quality Measures Claims 1. N-0101 Falls: Screening, Risk assessment, and POC 2. N-0421 BMI Screen & Plan 3. N-0419 Doc Meds in Record 4. N-0420 Pain Assess & f/u 5.

26 AOTA QUALITY PROGRAM

27 To maintain relevance OT practitioners must deliver high-quality services that impact each client and impact systems level quality measurement.

28 What is AOTA Doing? We support OTs who review, critique, and/or recommend quality measures for every program We develop clinical resources for practitioners We provide feedback directly to CMS We work with measure developers We are developing action oriented education

29 2018 External Quality Work There are over 20 committees/groups that include OTs just this year! PCPI Primary & Preventive Care TEP PCPI Measure Advisory Committee AAPM&R & PCPI Measure Development NQF Neurology Committee NQF Serious Mental Illness Action Team NQF Adult Medicaid Group NQF Medicaid Scorecard NQF Cancer Standing Committee NQF Clinician Workgroup NQF Admissions & Readmissions Workgroup NQF Post-Acute Care Workgroup NQF Clinician Workgroup NQF Membership Advisory Council CMS MSK Non-spine Cost Measure Dev CMS MSK Cost Measure Dev CMS Psych Cost Measure Dev CMS Neuro Cost Measure Dev CMS Measure Development Plan TEP CMS Unified PAC PPS TEP CMS IMPACT TEP (multiple) And more

33 Questions for Practitioners Can we answer: How do I, as an OT practitioner, contribute to client and system outcomes? Are we familiar with Medicare quality programs VBP, QRP, QPP? How OT contributes? Are we comfortable with Section GG as a measure for self-care & mobility? Are we experts? Can we implement a quality improvement project?

41 Activity Visit Nursing Home Compare Select a facility (in the area, from a fieldwork, etc.) Identify a quality measure for improvement Identify the ways OT can impact the measure, questions you would ask, & possible action steps

42 Visit: Or search for Nursing Home Compare

43

44 Search for your SNF here

45

46 Stars provide an overview meant for consumers

47 Click the name of your facility to get to the good stuff!

48 Each tabs is important. But, we are going to focus on Quality

49 For SNF, there are 2 sets of measures check out both! Short-stay & Long-stay Each tabs is important. But, we are going to focus on Quality

50 Up to Date Click on current data collection period These measures are often a few months old New measures may not be published yet The facility can pull current measures using Electronic Health Records and/or CASPER reports (Available from a CMS portal)

51 Short Stay Measures The performance of your facility is in this column.

52 Short Stay Measures The average performance of your state is in this column.

53 Short Stay Measures The national average performance is in this column.

54 Short Stay Measures While most all of these measures relate to OT, some are directly connected!

55 Short Stay Measures All of these measures are important. Measures that are worse than state or national will likely rise to the top of priorities!

56 Short Stay Measures Your facility can identify the people in the measure using MDS software or CASPER report.

57 Short Stay Measures What questions might you ask for this measure? Were the people with pressure ulcers that are new or worsened referred to OT? If so, what areas did the OT address in the evaluation & intervention? If not, why not? Can this be changed? Identify ways in which OT may help the interdisciplinary team improve on the measure. Is OT evaluating ADL and IADL performance for clients who are at risk for pressure ulcers? (e.g., toileting for people with decreased independence in mobility)

58 HOW CAN WE USE THIS INFORMATION TO IMPLEMENT A PDSA CYCLE?

59 PDSA Cycle Download a PDSA Worksheet from the Institue for Healthcare Improvement Plan State the objective or purpose Make a prediction of what will happen and why Develop a plan to test the change Who? What? When? Where? What data needs to be collected? Generate a Good Idea

60 PDSA Cycle Do Test the change on a small scale (e.g., one patient, one unit, one shift, one hour 1:1:1 test ) Document what happened problems and unexpected observations Begin data analysis Test on a SMALL scale!

61 PDSA Cycle Study Complete data analysis Compare data to predictions Summarize learnings and think about meaning Don t Forget to Study the results!

62 PDSA Cycle Act Adopt, adapt, abandon the change based on results of the test Prepare plan for next test Adjust and Do Again

63 Compare Sites This process works the same way for most settings. See the sites below: Home Health Compare Inpatient Rehabilitation Facility Compare Long Term Care Hospital Compare Hospital Compare Physician Compare (Including OT in private practice)
