10 The Episodes: BPCI CMS created 48 Episodes, each with up to 15 individual MS-DRG codes DHG categorized Episodes into 9 Service Lines; illustrative purposes only Model 2, 3, or 4 applicants may select 1-48 Episodes for testing Spine (5) Cardiac Services (12) Vascular Services (3) Example DHG Category: Vascular Services Episode: Major cardiovascular procedure MS-DRGs 237 & 238 Orthopedics (10) Neurology (2) Oncology / Hematology (1) Episode: Medical peripheral vascular disorders MS-DRGs 299, 300, & 301 Pulmonology (3) General Surgery (2) General Medicine / Internal Medicine (10) Episode: Other vascular surgery MS-DRGs 252, 253, & bundled-payments/ 10 10

11 How do you WIN in BPCI? 11

12 Optimizing Bundles Requires New Areas of Understanding DRG 470, Spending by Setting Ex. Target Price = $24k Hospital Physician HHA SNF IRF Readmit. $0 $5,000 $10,000 $15,000 $20,000 $25,000 $30 60% of spending is outside of hospital PAC Setting vitally important to manage - Discharge status - Picking PAC partners Readmission often is over 2x the spend of non-readmitted patient

13 Distribution of Medicare Spend Initial focus may be in two areas of spending that make the greatest difference: readmissions and post acute care settings. PAC Setting Costs Readmission Opportunity Data provided by Dobson DaVanzo Average Episode $ All data from this slide on is based on 90-Day Episodes - Trimmed Spending (Risk Track B) in 2012 Dollars, Episodes with less than 250 count are not included, but are available. 13

May be reason for decrease in IDs in some instances. Also, there should not be any added participants from July to October due to the fact that October was only for current phase II participants to add or drop episodes. The 10 added IDs could be omissions/errors from the July file that were corrected in October.

30 Questions That Data Helps To Answer ❶ Who else in our market is doing Bundled Payments? ❷ Where are Beneficiaries/Patients going after leaving our facility? ❸ How can we reduce utilization of services and prevent bad stuff from happening during the period of our responsibility? ❹ How can we engage and integrate other providers to work with us on our bundled payment? ❺ What does the financial model look like? Regardless of financial gain/loss, what value do we place on learning and development?

31 ❶ Who else in our market is doing Bundled Payments? Who Else? Precedence Model 4 Presence Trumps Model 2 and 3 Risk Bearing Performance Period Earlier CE-PoP trumps later CE- Pop (Not applicable in Model 4) Encourages early adoption, broad implementation, and partnerships between various providers Models 2 and 3 With Same Performance Period Model 2 Trumps Physician Group Model 2 and 3 PGP Initiator Trumps Non PGP Initiator Attending PGP Initiator Trumps Operating PGP Initiator

34 ❷ Where are Beneficiaries/Patients going after leaving our facility? 100% 90% 80% 70% 60% 50% 40% 30% 20% 10% 0% Hospital Discharge, First Destination Q Q2 Q3 Q4 Q Expired IRF/LTCH SNF HHA Self Care First Discharge Setting (MS-DRG 470) Sample Hospital Av Episode Cost Home (Self Care) $18,135 Home Health Agency Skilled Nursing Fac. Inpatient Rehab Fac. $17,505 $32,189 $35,037 Encourages use of lowestacute post-discharge setting; IRF and SNF are hardest hit

35 Care Pathways Care Pathways illustrates the specific pathway of care of each episode and its effect on overall episodic spending and ultimately estimated profit/loss.

36 Post Acute Summary Understanding that their may be PAC services downstream of the first PAC setting, the post acute summary creates a picture of average spend per admit by type of setting and specific provider. SNF, HHA, IRF, and LTACH providers are organized by type and compared to the average spend of their type and how many total dollars are being spent at each facility for complete episodes.

37 ❸ How can we reduce utilization of services and prevent bad stuff from happening during the period of our responsibility? Percent of Episodes that achieved target price ( 97% of historical price) Home 95% 150/158 Home Health 93% 95/102 SNF 41% 47/116 IP Rehab / LTACH 13% 8/61 Total 69% 300/437 Percent of Episodes that missed target price (>97% of historical price) 5% 8/158 7% 7/102 59% 69/116 87% 53/61 31% 137/437 Met, Missed Source: DHG Healthcare analysis of Medicare claims data for a sample Model 2 provide

38 Operating Physician Summary The Operating Physician Summary provides analysis of episodic spending by Operating Physician found on the Anchor Hospital record. This report also contains key metrics on each physician, illustrating how readmissions affect their episodes and how often these readmissions may occur after the patient leaves the anchor stay associated with specific physicians. This is also available by Attending Physician.

39 Physician Discharge Trends Physician Discharge Trends (available for both Attending and Operating Physicians) looks at the discharge destination trend of each physician and the effect of that PAC setting on total episode spending and estimated profitability.

40 ❸ How can we reduce utilization of services and prevent bad stuff from happening during the period of our responsibility? With Negative Event: (Percent of Episodes that achieved target price) Without Negative Event (Percent of Episodes that achieved target price) Readmissions 10% 3/30 73% 297/407 ER Visits 35% 23/65 74% 277/372 Preventable Complications 42% 80/192 90% 220/245 Source: DHG Healthcare analysis of Medicare claims data for a sample Model 2 provider

41 Readmission Summary Readmission Summary allows you to monitor the readmission % by month and understand how these readmissions may affect overall episodic spending and estimated profit/loss.

42 Readmission Detail Readmission Detail is a detailed listing of every readmission in the current data file. The graphs summarize these readmissions by acute care facility, allowing the user to analyze how many readmission dollars are being spent at each facility, both in total and per readmission. The listing gives key information relating to the readmission such as episode, readmitting DRG, payment amount, and day of episode in which the readmission occurred.

43 ❹ How can we engage physicians with our bundled payment? and integrate other providers to work with us? Total Gainsharing not to exceed 20% of Historical Episode Spending Physician Gainsharing capped at 50% of Part B Professional fees Identifying Preferred Providers Episode Count Avg. Episode Payment % of Episodes with Readmit. % of Episodes with ER Visit SNF A 53 $34, % 1.9% SNF B 43 $27, % 1.3% Frequently use upside-only gainsharing contracts with partners SNF C 24 $30, % 4.2% SNF D 20 $37, % 15.0% Encourages consolidation around high-quality post-acute providers; can still give Beneficiary choice Source: DHG Healthcare analysis of Medicare claims data for a sample Model 2 provider

44 ❺ What does the financial model look like? Regardless of financial gain/loss, what value do we place on learning and development? Financial Model Low-Risk Learning Opportunity Expenses Revenues

45 Millions Why CJR? $ Billion Total Episode Spending $343 Million Savings to Medicare 2.8% Overall CJR Savings to Medicare Medicare s 5-year CJR Financial Est. $150 $120 $127 $100 $71 $50 $35 $11 $23 $30 $52 $55 $0 -$11 ($58) -$50 ($101) ($172) -$100 ($182) -$150 -$ Losses Collected by Medicare from Hospitals Medicare Gains Distributed to Hospitals Net Medicare Impact 45

46 Major Policies in CJR that did not change Hospitals are singularly responsible for CJR risk. IPPS hospitals in CJR selected MSAs are mandated to participate. Non CJR hospitals may not opt-in. No downside in first performance year. Applies only to Medicare FFS beneficiaries. Bundle includes IP stay plus 90-days post-discharge. Bundles are retrospective, not prospective. BPCI still trumps CJR for risk delegation. Hospitals may share gains and/or losses with CJR collaborators. Target prices are rebased every other year. 46

47 Summary of major CJR changes ❶ CJR start delayed to 4/1/16; truncated first year ❷ Moving forward with 67 MSAs; 8 MSAs removed ❸ Quality performance calculations changed dramatically ❹ Hip fractures assigned a unique target price ❺ Stop-loss & stop-gain limits narrowed ❻ More clarification on requirements when sharing gains/losses with collaborators ❼ CMS actuaries expect greater savings in final rule ($343M vs. $250M) ❽ Availability of data to hospitals will be expanded 47

48 Phasing-in of Regional Pricing 48

49 Moving forward with 67 MSAs; 8 MSAs removed 789 impacted CJR regional hospitals in 67 MSAs 67 of 789 (8%) CJR hospitals are already in BPCI for LEJR IPPS hospitals in the selected MSAs are required to participate in CJR.

51 Zoom-in on 2016 performance year Complications still being measured for PY1 through 3/31/16. Performance Year 1 looks like 9 months, but will only include approximately 6 months of cases. An episode must be initiated after 4/1/16, and the episode, including 90-day post-discharge period, must conclude on or before 12/31/16. 1 st / 2 nd gainsharing distribution from CMS in 2Q Baseline has already been established.

Are emergent or trauma admissions. These tend to be much more expensive episodes of care. Source: DHG Healthcare and Dobson DaVanzo & Associates research using CMS Public Use Files

57 Clarified gain/loss sharing requirements Provided a lot more clarity and specificity on PGP gainsharing PGPs must have distribution arrangement with members Gainsharing funds must not be placed in PGPs general funds Hospital must include quality measures in collaborator selection and distribution method CJR Collaborators must be listed on the hospital s website, updated quarterly Gainsharing arrangements must be entered into before care is furnished to CJR beneficiaries SNF LTCH Physician Group Practices Nonphysician practitioners HHA IRF Physicians Outpatient therapy providers 57

58 Medicare CJR Data Data availability expanded significantly Data will be made available no less frequently than on a quarterly basis with the goal of making these data available as frequently as on a monthly basis if practicable. Hospitals must request data one time, not recurring. Beneficiaries may not opt-out of sharing their data with the CJR hospital. Alcohol and drug abuse patient records will not be shared.
