2 Measuring Hospital Performance Progress in Pennsylvania: Process Measures 2

3 PA Hospital Performance: Process Measures We examined the latest year-over-year (YOY) changes in the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) and Joint Commission (JC) process measures aggregated on 16 process measures (14 CMS and 2 JC Measures) reported on the PHCQA website were examined from 2006 to Heart Attack Measures* 2 Heart Failure Measures* 3 Pneumonia Measures* 7 Surgical Care Measures* 1 Prevention Measure* We used rates and averages to compare performance data. The PA rate is calculated using a volume-based, weighted-average of hospitals in Pennsylvania. The PA average is calculated using an institution-based, non-weighted average of hospitals in Pennsylvania. * See glossary for detailed list 3

4 Process Measures Data: Overall Findings Pennsylvania hospital performance improved from July 2013 June Pennsylvania performance improvements were consistent with improvements nationally over the same time period. Pennsylvania Hospitals generally performed above average compared to other hospitals across the country. 4

5 YOY Comparison of the Years Ending June 2013 and June 2014 Process measure scores for PA hospitals improved across the board. PA rates increased in 14 of the 16 measures, with only 2 measures remaining stagnant. The standard deviations for PA hospitals decreased for 15 out of 16 process measures, indicating an overall improvement in consistency. PA hospital performance improvements were similar to nationwide hospital performance improvements. National rates and top ten percentiles either increased or remained the same for the majority of process measures. 5

12 CMS HCAHPS Measures 12

13 Measuring Progress in PA Hospital Performance: HCAHPS Patient Experience Measures We reviewed the latest year-over-year (YOY) score changes in the 10 CMS HCAHPS Measures reported on the PHCQA website: H-COMP-1: Nurse Communication H-COMP-2: Doctor Communication H-COMP-3: Responsiveness of Hospital Staff H-COMP-4: Pain Well Controlled H-COMP-5: Medicine Explained by Staff H-COMP-6: Discharge Information H-CLEAN-HSP: Room and Bathroom Kept Clean H-QUIET-HSP: Room Quiet at Night H-HSP-RATING: Hospital Rating H-RECMND: Hospital Recommendation Only the scores of the top tier answer categories were evaluated. We also examined correlations among HCAHPS measure scores. 13

14 YOY HCAHPS Data Comparisons between July 2012 June 2013 & July 2013 June 2014 PA hospital HCAHPS scores for the year running up to Q are similar to the national average. The PA average was within 2% of the national average for 9 of the 10 measures. PA HCAHPS scores increased for 9 of the 10 measures since the previously reported year. Increases were small, with no measure improving by more than 1.75%. The one measure to decline, H-COMP-4, decreased by only 0.09%. Changes in HCAHPS scores for hospitals nationwide were also modest. US averages increased or stayed the same for all HCAHPS measures. None of the US averages increased by more than 2 percentage points. 14

Overall, PA hospitals performed about as well as the national average for all measures, except H-QUIET-HSP which under performed. 15

28 CMS Emergency Department Measures 28

29 Emergency Department Measures Emergency Department (ED) measures display how timely and effective the care in a hospital s emergency department is delivered. Measures which show ED timeliness of care are displayed as an average in minutes, and thus may not reflect daily fluctuations of ED care. A lower score is better. ED measures are based on a limited sample each quarter and do not reflect the score of all ED patients. 29

32 CMS Outcome Measures 32

33 Trend Analysis: CMS Outcome Measures We compared readmission and mortality performance over the past 8 years. The measures in this section evaluate outcomes during the 30-day period after discharge. Data for these measures are rolled-up three years. A lower score is better. The only mortality measure that has shown consistent improvement is the 30-Day Heart Attack Mortality measure. Improvements in Heart Failure and Pneumonia process measure scores over the years have not necessarily translated into lower mortality rates. While Pennsylvania hospitals performed better than US hospitals on average for all mortality measures, readmission rates in Pennsylvania are almost identical to the national rates. Over the past 8 years, readmission rates have decreased for all measures. 33
