1 Improving Transitions of Care Mark V. Williams, MD, FACP, FHM Professor & Chief, Division of Hospital Medicine Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine Principal Investigator, Project BOOST Health Affairs 9/08 The growth of hospitalist programs contributes to a loss of physicians participation on hospital medical staffs, which increases the burden of coordination and blurs accountability for the quality of postdischarge care. 1
2 June 2007 MedPAC Report Medicare pays for ALL admissions regardless Initial stay or readmission for same condition 17.6% of admissions result in re-admissions within 30 days (6% in 7 days) = $15 billion in spending Future CMS proposes to require that all general acute hospitals conduct a CARE assessment on every Medicare beneficiary being discharged. Continuity Assessment Record and Evaluation Public Disclosure of readmission rates Lower case payments for readmissions MedPAC March 2010 Report > 10 million FFS Medicare admissions in 2008 to 3,500 participating hospitals $139 billion in payments Outpatient grew while inpatient stable Access and quality improved Readmission rates unchanged or worsened across most states from 2003 to

Burt CW, McCaig LF, Simon AE. Emergency department visits by persons recently discharged from U.S. hospitals. National Health Statistics Reports July 24, 2008; Number 6. 4
5 Preventable Admissions Hospital inpatient care is the most expensive type of health care > 4 million Preventable Admissions Cost nearly $31 Billion Heart Failure and Pneumonia Half of the $ problem COPD 16% Diabetes 13% Elderly 2/3 of these hospitalizations - 1 in 5 Medicare admissions Hospital Readmissions and Mortality 5
6 5/26/10 Quality ver$us Quantity As Congress debates health care, some policy experts say no meaningful improvement can be made without changing the payment system so medical centers have more financial incentive to help people stay out of the hospital. Reform It s here! H.R. 3590, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act H.R the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act Multiple aspects will impact hospitals and hospitalists Paying for quality instead of quantity Demonstration projects 6
7 Reducing Readmissions Financial penalties on hospitals for excess readmissions vs. expected HF, AMI, Pneumonia FY2013 $7.1 billion in savings over 10 years Not supported by SHM Community Based Care Transitions Program Starts Jan. 1, 2011 A Few Other Big Things Value Based Purchasing program FY2013; budget neutral Bundling Accountable Care Organizations Center for Innovation at CMS The Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute National Strategy to Improve Quality of Care 7
8 Hospital Discharge - currently Random events connected to highly variable actions with only a remote possibility of meeting implied expectations. Roger Resar, MD Agent of Tremendous Change and Global Innovation Seeker Luther Midelfort Mayo Health System Senior Fellow, IHI Dangers of Discharge 19% of patients had a post discharge AE - 1/3 preventable and 1/3 ameliorable Ann Intern Med 2003; Vol % of patients had a post discharge AE - 28% preventable and 22% ameliorable CMAJ 2004;170(3) 8
9 Dangers of Discharge Ann Intern Med 2005;143(2): of 2644 (41%) inpatients discharged with test result pending (9.4%) potentially required action - Survey of MDs involved: almost 2/3 unaware of results - Of these: 37% actionable and 13% urgent Dangers of Discharge Arch Intern Med. 2007;167: ¼ of discharged patients require additional outpatient work-ups > 1/3 not completed Increased time to post-discharge f/u associated with lack of work-up completion Availability of discharge summary increased likelihood of work-up being done 9
10 Hospitalist to PCP Info transfer and communication deficits at hospital discharge are common Direct communication 3-20% Discharge summary availability at 1 st postdischarge appt 12-34%; 51-77% at 4 weeks Discharge summaries often lack info Dx test results (33-63%), hospital course (7-22%), discharge meds (2-40%), pending test results (65%) Follow-up plans (2-43%), Counseling (90-92%) Kripalani S, LeFevre F, Phillips CO, Williams MV, Basaviah P, Baker DW JAMA 2007;297: SHM Initiatives Discharge Checklist Halasyamani L et al.
