20 Quality Innovation Network (QIN)

21 Iowa QIN QIO A partner for quality Winter 2015

22 Take Home Points The work of the Telligen QIN QIO has changed with the restructuring of the CMS QIO program. The Telligen QIN QIO is available for technical assistance to hospitals for Quality Improvement programs focused on infections, use of HIT, and Value Based Incentive Programs. Telligen will be partner with communities of providers around a number of goals: heart disease, diabetes care, vaccination use, HIT, nursing home care, home health care, depression and substance abuse, and readmission prevention. 22

23 Changes to the QIO Program 23

24 Changes to the QIO Program CMS has separated medical case review from quality improvement work creating two separate structures BFCC QIO Medical case review to be performed by Beneficiary and Family Centered Care Quality Improvement Organizations (BFCC QIOs) QIN QIO Quality improvement and technical assistance to be performed by Quality Innovation Network Quality Improvement Organizations (QIN QIOs)

25 Kepro is Iowa BFCC QIO

26 Telligen is the Iowa QIN QIO

27 Quality Innovation Network Quality Improvement Organization (QIN QIO) QIN QIOs have performance based contracts with the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) with results measured by CMS QIN QIOs help achieve national quality CMS goals through focused efforts at the community level by providing technical assistance and convening learning and action networks to support healthcare quality improvement Current work extends over 5 years ending July 31, 2019

28 QIN QIO Program Approach to Quality

40 Transforming Clinical Practice Initiative (TCPI)

41 Transforming Clinical Practice Initiative (TCPI) A Service Delivery Innovation Model Better Health. Better Care. Lower Cost. 41

42 Context for Transforming Clinical Practice With the passage of the Affordable Care Act in 2010 came renewed efforts to improve our health care system. Efforts guided by focus on better health, better health care, and lower costs through quality improvement. Clinicians want to improve care for their patients, and to position their practices to thrive in a pay for value system. Increasing accountabilities from care delivery reform programs (e.g. Medicare Shared Savings Program). 16% (185,000) of clinicians are currently participating in CMS advanced care delivery models or model tests. With Innovation Center support, successful clinical practice leaders can support their peers with direct technical assistance to help them transform their practices. 4

43 Clinical Practice Leaders Have Already Charted the Pathway to Practice Transformation Traditional Approach Patient s chief complaints or reasons for visit determines care. Care is determined by today s problem and time available today. Care varies by scheduled time and memory/skill of the doctor. Patients are responsible for coordinating their own care. Clinicians know they deliver high quality care because they are well trained. It is up to the patient to tell us what happened to them. Transformed Practice We systematically assess all our patients health needs to plan care. Care is determined by a proactive plan to meet patient needs. Care is standardized according to evidence based guidelines. A prepared team of professionals coordinates a patient s care. Clinicians know they deliver high quality care because they measure it and make rapid changes to improve. You can track tests, consults, and follow up after the ED and hospital. Adapted from Duffy, D. (2014). School of Community Medicine, Tulsa, OK. 43

44 Transforming Clinical Practice Initiative Model Aligns with the criteria for innovative models set forth in the Affordable Care Act: Promoting broad payment, practice reform and care coordination Establishing community based health teams to support chronic care management, and Promoting improved quality and reduced cost through collaborative networks that support practice transformation. Moves clinician practices through 5 stages of transformation Supported by Practice Transformation Networks, Support & Alignment Networks, Quality Improvement Organizations and others. 44

45 Transforming Clinical Practice Initiative Phases of Transformation Set Aims Use Data to Drive Care Achieve Progress on Aims Achieve Benchmark Status Thrive as a Business via Pay for Value Approaches 45

46 Transforming Clinical Practice Goals 1 Support more than 150,000 clinicians in their practice transformation work Improve health outcomes for millions of Medicare, Medicaid and CHIP beneficiaries and other patients Reduce unnecessary hospitalizations for 5 million patients Generate $1 to $4 billion in savings to the federal government and commercial payers Sustain efficient care delivery by reducing unnecessary testing and procedures 6 Build the evidence base on practice transformation so that effective solutions can be scaled 46

47 Practice Transformation in Action Transforming Clinical Practice (TCP) would employ a three pronged approach to national technical assistance. This technical assistance would enable large scale transformation of more than 150,000 clinicians practices to deliver better care and result in better health outcomes at lower costs. Aligned Federal and State programs with support contractor resources Communities Practice Transformation Networks (PTNs) to provide on the ground support to practices Primary and Specialty Care Clinicians and Practices Ambulatory and Post Acute Care Support and Alignment Networks (SANs) to achieve alignment with medical education, maintenance of certification, more Hospitals and Healthcare Systems Public Health Services 47
