1 LTCH Payment Reform & Patient Criteria Mary Dalrymple Managing Director, LTRAX Kristen Smith, MHA, PT Senior Consultant, Fleming-AOD
2 Overview Objectives What happened? Describe new LTACH payment system and new patient criteria for full LTACH reimbursement, including implementation timeline Describe the overall effect on LTACH sector Look ahead to the changing landscape over the next 5+ years How do you prepare for the changing LTACH landscape?
3 What Happened: Context Forces at work: Congressional tax and health committees needed money to stop large, imminent cuts in reimbursements to Medicare physicians Bipartisan agreement in Congress to revamp physician payment system early next year Bipartisan agreement to reform post-acute care as part of physician payment reform CMS and MedPAC jointly pursuing research into patient criteria for LTACHs LTACHs looking to preserve their niche
4 What Happened: Opportunity Moment of opportunity: Budget negotiators announced a bipartisan agreement Tax and health committees needed a short term patch to stop physician payment cuts for a few months LTACH reforms get hitched to the bipartisan budget bill President Obama signed the bipartisan budget bill, with the LTACH payment reforms, into law on December 26.
5 New Rules: Overview Patient criteria: LTACH reimbursement rates preserved for selected patients Site-neutral payments: All other patients reimbursed at the comparable inpatient prospective payment system rate Other: 25% rule relief Reinstatement of moratorium on new LTACH beds and hospitals New LTACH quality measure
6 Patient Criteria LTACH reimbursement rate preserved for two kinds of patients: 1. Critical care patients: Patients whose prior short-term acute care hospital stay included 3+ days in ICU or CCU 2. Ventilator patients: Patients discharged from the LTACH assigned to an LTACH diagnosis-related group of cases requiring 96+ hours on a ventilator (MS-LTC-DRG 207) LTACH-rate patients also: Must be admitted to the LTACH immediately following discharge from an inpatient PPS hospital
7 Site-Neutral Payment Patients reimbursed at rates equivalent to an inpatient PPS hospital: Patients who do not meet LTACH criteria Patients with a psychiatric or rehabilitation principal diagnosis
8 Site-Neutral Payment: Rate Site-neutral payment rate is the lower of: 1. the IPPS-comparable per diem payment plus outlier payments (as appropriate) currently used to calculate certain short-stay outlier payments, or % of the estimated cost for services
9 Site-Neutral Payment: Timeline Payment system changes begin in FY 2016 Site-neutral payment system takes effect for cost reporting periods beginning on or after October 1, Two-year transition in FY 2016 & FY 2017 Site-neutral discharges reimbursed at half IPPS-comparable rate and half LTACH rate for cost reporting periods beginning October 1, 2015, through September 30, Site-neutral payments go into full effect in FY 2018 Site-neutral discharges paid at IPPS-comparable rates for cost reporting periods beginning on or after October 1, 2017.
10 Site-Neutral Payment: Length of Stay Excluded from 25-day average length of stay calculation: Discharges paid on a site-neutral basis Patients reimbursed under Medicare Advantage Effective: October 1, 2015 (FY 2016)
11 LTCH Discharge Payment Percentage 50% rule: At least 50% of all discharges must be reimbursed at LTACH rates to preserve facility s eligibility for LTACH reimbursements (i.e., 50% critical care or vent patients). If not, all discharges for future cost reporting periods will be paid at IPPS-comparable rates. CMS will establish a process for LTACHs that miss the 50% target to reinstate their eligibility for LTACH reimbursement. Effective: cost reporting periods beginning October 1, 2019 (FY 2020) Medicare will inform LTACHs of their LTCH discharge payment percentage with cost reporting periods beginning October 1, 2015.
12 Other: 25% Rule Grandfathered LTACHs permanently exempted from 25% rule Four-year extension of 25% rule relief 50% threshold applied to hospitals-within-hospitals and satellites Freestanding LTACHs exempt Study continued need for 25% rule in light of other reforms Effective: October 1, September 30, 2017 (FY 2014 through FY 2017)
13 Other: Moratorium & Quality Reporting Reinstate moratorium on new LTACH beds and facilities Effective: January 1, September 30, 2017 (CY 2015 through FY 2017) New LTACH quality measure (est. October 2015) Change in mobility for patients requiring ventilator support
14 LTACH Sector Effect on Medicare Reimbursement FY2015 FY2016 FY2017 FY2018 FY2019 FY2020 FY2021 FY2022 FY billions Source: Congressional Budget Office
15 Payment Reform: Planning LTACH patient criteria Measure current MS-LTC-DRG 207 discharges 11.5% of discharges in 2011 (MedPAC, June 2013) 14.4% of LTRAX discharges in 2013 Start tracking ICU/CCU admissions Site-neutral payment Identify patients with primary psychiatric or rehabilitation diagnosis Expect additional details through CMS rule-making processes
16 Looking Ahead Known change for LTACHs over 5+ years: Ongoing quality reporting Added quality reporting Transition to ICD-10 Transition to patient criteria & site-neutral payment system New 50% rule Unknown changes: Additional quality reporting Public reporting of quality outcomes Additional post-acute reforms Value-based purchasing
17 Looking Ahead: Timeline Today July 2014 October 2014 (FY 2015) January 2015 October 2015 (FY 2016) January 2016 October 2017 (FY 2018) October 2019 (FY 2020) Ongoing quality reporting: CAUTI & CLABSI (NHSN), pressure ulcers (LTCH CARE Data Set), 30-day readmission rates (claims) Transition to revised LTCH CARE Data Set (v. 2.01) Add flu vaccination data collection (healthcare personnel & patients) Transition to ICD-10 Add MRSA & C. diff quality reporting LTACH beds & facilities moratorium reinstated Vent mobility quality measure established Begin blended payments for transition to site neutrality 50% rule monitoring begins (informational) Add falls with major injury quality reporting *** CMS feedback on 30-day readmission rates begins Begin full site-neutral payment system LTCH moratorium lifts 25% rule relief ends 50% rule enforcement
