8 Medicaid Quality CMS defines quality as the right care for every person every time. CMS partners with the state so that efforts will most likely achieve safe, effective, efficient, patient-centered, timely and equitable care. On April 25, 2007 CMS issued a State Medicaid Directors (SMD) letter to announce a national Value-Driven Health Care (VHC) initiative. The VHC consists of four "cornerstones": Interoperable Health Information Technology Transparency of Quality Transparency of Price Incentives for High-Value Health Care.

9 Quality in SC Medicaid - Need for Change Contracts for healthcare delivery contain quality expectations in the scope of work Readiness to perform Annual external reviews Ongoing quality monitoring i some outcome based Advocates tell you about quality problems Respond to unusual practices emerging in FFS data Collect HEDIS measures for internal use on FFS and Health Plans in existence Heavily focused on claims payment

12 Coordination of Pharmaceutical Usage Too many medications can cause serious health problems DHHS is working with the SC College of Pharmacy to help educate doctors on the latest research Our goal is to ensure decisions are based on the latest clinical evidence Number of Atypical Drugs Patients 4 Atypicals 2 3Atypicals 34 2 Atypicals 662 1At Atypical 7,933 Total Patients 8,631

13 Coordination of Pharmaceutical Usage Problem: Review of utilization data within a six- month window in 2008 revealed over 135 recipients i met the following criteria: Using 4 or more Pharmacies Have 5 or more Prescribers Have at least 1 Schedule II Drug g( (Narcotic) The person with the highest number of prescribers was 17 within the six-month window and the person with the highest drug cost was over $15,000 Solution: Pharmacy Lock-In Program

14 SC Healthy Connections is our Medicaid Transformation Plan Many South Carolinians are generally of poor health 20% of the Medicaid recipients account for 80% of costs Lack of overall coordinating i force that demands & rewards value from the system Greatest capacity for effective changes is where the relationship of payer, provider and beneficiary intersect

27 Value Driven Health Care Mature SC Medicaid will be purchaser of value-driven healthcare h Pay for performance indicators will be part of all our major contracts More members will be monitored by HEDIS measures Targeted studies to help shape care delivery to address chronic disease & health status Report card measures to guide beneficiary choice

28 Medicaid Summary in South Carolina SFY 08 claims payments were approximately $4.5 billion Medicaid pays for 50% of all births in South Carolina and 85% of all teen births 30% of all children in South Carolina are on Medicaid Over 50% of Medicaid members are ages 0 to 18 Medicaid pays for three-fourths of the nursing home beds in SC By focusing on quality, we can improve outcomes and achieve a higher, more effective return on our investment.
