1 The STAAR Initiative A quality effort at the heart of system redesign Amy E. Boutwell, MD, MPP The Center for Innovative Healthcare Strategies amy@innovativehealthcarestrategies.org Please note: Dr Boutwell is relaying experience based on 3 years co-directing the STAAR Initiative at IHI; she is no longer with the STAAR Initiative at IHI and does not speak for the current project team.

2 Overall Summary Rehospitalizations are frequent,costly and many are avoidable; Successful pilots, local programs and research studies demonstrate that rehospitalization rates can be reduced; Individual successes exist where financial incentives are aligned; Improving transitions state-wide requires action beyond the level of the individual provider; systemic barriers must be addressed; Public-private sector leadership is a powerful asset in a statewide effort to improve care coordination across settings and over time.

3 A Portfolio of Complementary Approaches F Hospital A D B C Home E Skilled Nursing G A: Improve transition out of the hospital B: Improve reception into the community-based home environment C: Improve the reception into the skilled nursing facility/rehab/vna care D: Provide supplemental transitional care services for high-risk patients E: Improve the transition out of the SNF to community-based home environment F: Improve the communication of key elements when sent from home to ED G: Improve the communication of key elements when sent from nursing care to ED

4 Beyond Setting-Specific Approaches F Quality Error-Free Inpatient Care Hospital A D B C Home E Skilled Nursing POLST, care preferences Healthcare Home G Patient and Caregiver and Public Engagement State-wide Data National, State, Local Leadership Resources to Initiate and Sustain New Models Technology Enhancements

5 Improving transitions is part of a comprehensive strategy to promote efficient and effective health care delivery

6 STAAR Initiative STate Action on Avoidable Rehospitalizations Two-part concurrent approach of the STAAR Initiative: Provide technical assistance to front-line teams of providers working to improve the transition out of the hospital, the reception into the next setting of care with the specific aim of reducing avoidable rehospitalizations and improving patient satisfaction with care AND Create a state-based, multi-stakeholder initiative to address the systemic barriers to improving care transitions, and align efforts (policies, regulations, accreditation standards, etc)

7 STAAR Initiative STate Action on Avoidable Rehospitalizations Improve the transitions between settings Cross-continuum teams Collaborative learning State-based mentoring and quality improvement infrastructure Support state-level, multi-stakeholder initiatives to address the systemic barriers State leadership- coordinating, aligning, convening State-level data and measurement Financial impact of reducing readmissions Engaging payers Working across the continuum Other leadership, policy, regulatory levers

8 STAAR Cross-Continuum Collaborative: Optimize the transition for all patients *disease non-specific, all payer, to all settings

9 STAAR Initiative STate Action on Avoidable Rehospitalizations 1. Measure all-cause 30day readmission rate 2. Form a cross-continuum team 3. Cross-continuum team reviews longitudinal, crosssetting story of 5 recently readmitted patients

10 STAAR Collaborative Key Changes 1. Enhanced Assessment of Patients: why does the patient/caregiver/snf/outpatient provider think caused readmit? 2. Enhanced Teaching and Learning: change focus from what providers tell patients to what patients/caregivers learn 3. Real-time Communication: timely, clinically meaning information exchange with opportunity for clarification 4. Timely Post Acute Care Follow-Up: clinical contact (call, home health visit, office visit) within 48h or 5 days depending on risk

11 Recommended Changes Cross-Continuum Team Diagnostic Review % Testing Description STAAR Collaborative 100% Understanding mutual interdependencies, the hospital-based teams co-design care processes with their cross-continuum partners to improve the transition out of the hospital 100% Teams perform a diagnostic review of five recently readmitted patients to understand transitions from the perspective of the longitudinal patient experience and to identify opportunities for improvement Enhanced Teaching Enhanced Assessment 91% Utilizing health literacy principles, effectively teach patients about their conditions, medications, and self-care 76% On admission, perform a comprehensive assessment of patients postdischarge needs and initiate a customized discharge plan Timely Follow-up 76% Based on assessed risk of readmission, schedule post-hospital care follow-up prior to discharge Communication 66% Provide customized, real-time critical information to the next care provider(s); Provide the patient and his or her family caregiver with written self-care instructions

12 Support State Level Multi-Stakeholder Coalitions to Develop State Strategy and Address Systemic Barriers

13 STAAR State Level Strategy Hospital-level Improve the transition out of the hospital for all patients* Measure and track 30-day readmission rates* Understand the financial implications of reducing rehospitalizations* Community-level Engage organizations across continuum to collaborate on improving care, partner with non-clinical community based services, address lack of IT connectivity, clarify who owns coordination, engage patient advocates* Ensure post-acute providers are able to detect and manage clinical changes, develop common communication and education tools* State-level Develop state-level population based rehospitalization data* Convene all payer discussions to explore coordinated action* Link with efforts to expand coverage, engage patients, improve HIT infrastructure, establish medical homes, contain costs, etc.* Establish state strategy, use regulatory levers* * Elements of the STAAR Initiative

26 Action State Data Description STAAR State Leadership, Strategy, Policy MA - Division of Health Care Finance and Policy Steering Committee MI - Multi-payer collaboration to run standard reports WA - quarterly rehospitalization reports to all WA hospitals Financial Impact Of Reduced Rehospitalization STAAR partnered with 16 CFOs to understand financial impact of readmissions in current payment climate. Created roadmap, issue brief, manuscript, webinar. Engaging Payers Working Across Continuum Understand which specific challenges in delivering optimal care at transitions are amenable to action by payers in short term. WA Mediciad quality incentive for discharge education scores; avoidable ED Evolution of hospital-based cross continuum teams to community-based; the STAAR Effect, Care Transitions Map in MA, Detroit CARR. Standard information elements of all transitions; standard forms *Cross continuum team is most transformative concept in STAAR to date*

27 Financial Impact of Reducing Readmissions Few hospitals have examined the financial implications of reducing readmissions- either in the current payment climate or in any number of future states. Understanding current reality will allow more informed examination of the impact of proposed payment reforms regarding readmissions and proactive engagement in shaping the transition to creating value across the continuum.

28 STAAR Financial Impact Analysis Roadmap 1. Calculate the all-cause 30 day readmission rate for the hospital and the percentage of the average daily census due to readmitted patients. 2. Partner Financial Lead with Clinical Lead and review the personal, clinical, and financial story of one (or more) recently readmitted patient(s). - Calculate revenue, expenses, and margin. - Analyze clinical/operational insights from this story. 3. Conduct a financial analysis on a sample set of readmissions for a select time period (1 month, 12 months, etc). - Analyze characteristics of this sample set (payer mix, LOS, conditions, outliers, etc) - What is the average direct and total margin per readmitted patient in this sample? 4. What financial variables does your hospital consider when examining the impact of readmissions? - Revenue, expenses, direct costs, indirect costs, variable costs, fixed costs, etc. - How does your organization define direct, indirect, fixed and variable costs? - How does your organization allocate indirect costs? 5. How do readmissions to your hospital, today, influence your hospital s bottom line? 6. If you were to successfully reduce readmissions by 10%, 30%, 50%, which costs would be influenced and which costs would remain fixed? 7. What is your hospital s ability to influence (reduce) fixed costs? In the near and long term? 8. Is there latent demand in your hospital service area? Would you expect to keep volume stable if readmissions decreased? What would happen to ED visits? Observation stays? 9. What there anything that surprised you about this analysis? 10. Is there anything that your hospital will do differently as a result of this analysis? Institute for Healthcare Improvement 2010

29 Lessons on State Level Engagement State-based approach allows: Common framing of issue, common language Inventory complementary efforts across state Align efforts encourages, elevates, sustains action Learn from multiple approaches to multiple challenges at the same time State strategy to refer back to No surprises- transparent intent and plan Leverage regulatory, licensure, other policy levers to support and codify new standards of care
