8 Triad HealthCare Network History and Overview Began as a 20-member physician-led steering committee in fall 2010 Developed over eight months as collaboration between independent and employed community physicians and Cone Health Formed officially in 2011 as a Clinically Integrated Network serving the Piedmont Triad area Is an affiliate of the Cone Health System, but governance and operations is led by physicians Represents a new model of care clinical integration - designed to align physicians and hospitals to improve access, improve quality and lower costs. 8

9 Triad HealthCare Network Goals Allow physicians to have the opportunity to lead and have a voice in the necessary changes in healthcare versus simply being passive and have change dictated Engage physicians to develop new models of care and true transformation of the local healthcare delivery system Provide resources to physicians to meet the growing demands of accountability and transparency Create greater collaboration and trust among physicians, hospitals, patients and payers Be renowned as a national leader in delivering exceptional health care value in terms of cost, quality and service 9

12 Triad HealthCare Network Structure and Membership (as of March 2013) Physician-led governance and committees composed of 50/50 split between PCPs and Specialists and employed and independent physicians 776 Affiliated physicians; 324 employed by Cone 55 groups; separate tax IDs 231 Primary Care Physicians across the community 180 Adult Medicine 58 Unique clinic locations; 26 different EMR systems; 7 practices no EMR 51 Pediatricians 11 Unique clinic locations; 4 additional EMR systems 12

13 Triad HealthCare Network Driving Care Transformation Deployment of advanced IT resources to support population management Care Management team to support practices Assistance to achieve Patient-Centered Medical Home recognition and practice transformation Facilitate care process redesign 13

14 Triad HealthCare Network Key IT functions considered to transform delivery Aggregate clinical data from disparate sources EPIC, community EHRs, payer claims data, other hospitals, reference labs, radiology results, etc. Deliver actionable clinical data to physicians - at the point of care, disease registries, portals, faxes, etc. Proactively identify those at the highest risk ability to make proactive interventions in disease progression Routinely report physician performance and compliance to national metrics, benchmarks and standards Report and manage cost efficiency among providers 14

15 Information Technology/Analytics Systems Health Information Exchange ( HIE ) Interfaces with community providers and aggregates clinical data Hospitals Physicians Labs/Pharmacy/Radiology Master Patient Index ( MPI ) Provides portal view to all providers Clinical Performance Reporting System Reports performance to quality metrics Provides clinical protocol engine; Clinical recommendations Point-of-care reports Patient disease registries Claims data integration Case Management module care documentation, communication Population analytics, utilization, case management module Patient stratification; Predictive risk Utilization and cost efficiency analytics 15

17 CINA Point of Care Report Improving Care Delivery to Patients Guides decision making at the Point of Care Drives consistent care delivery across providers / practices / THN Promotes team based care delivery Integrates data beyond the EMR claims, hospital, community Encouraging Patient Responsibility Provides easily accessible tool for Patient Engagement Encourages talking points between the patient and care team Benefiting Practice Management Enhances current / new revenue generation Highlights ACO required metrics for reporting 17

18 Sample Clinical Decision Support at the Point-of-Care Diagnoses and Meds are prioritized to highlight chronic conditions Practice Performance Feedback Action Items and Goals are highlighted for quick reference and visibility Labs, Calculations and Diagnostic Procedures pertinent to the Action Items are displayed for easy reference 18 Targeted reminders for nursing staff allow better leverage of provider time and more efficient workflow

19 Wellogic Health Information Exchange 19 Connects healthcare information systems and devices across the continuum of care: Primary care physician & specialist offices Hospitals Long term care facilities Laboratories Imaging Centers Pharmacies Payers Creates one patient one record across all venues of care Delivers tests, reports, alerts, and decision support recommendations wherever necessary

27 Triad HealthCare Network Contracting Approach Initial focus on quality, not joint FFS, contracting Practice maintains control of billing and collection Practice makes claims and EMR information available Goal to create community Clinical Data Repository (CDR) Focus on incentive-based contracts based on quality and cost control initiatives P4P, shared savings, gain sharing THN negotiates a Savings/Bonus Pool with the payers government, insurance companies and employers THN is responsible for managing / distributing bonus payments 27

28 Insurers and Employers Triad HealthCare Network Business Model P4P Shared Savings Gain Sharing Negotiated Incentive-Based Contracts Continue Current Fee-For-Service Claims & Payment Structure Quality Bonus Payout Based On THN Goals and Performance Measures POC, Registry, Performance Data 28 Physicians Claims and EMR Data

29 Triad HealthCare Network First Year Accomplishments Affiliated with over 750 community physicians over 50% independent Developed physician-led infrastructure Identified 129 quality metrics across all major specialties Approved to participate in Medicare Shared Savings Program as ACO Over 40,000 Medicare beneficiaries Identified and begun deployment of Clinical Performance Reporting System, Health Information Exchange ( HIE ), and population analytics, utilization, case management modules Identification and hiring of case management team 29

30 Triad HealthCare Network Lessons Learned Administrative Perspective PCP alignment/attribution is difficult Not prepared for initial MSSP list Underestimated time and effort to send letters to 40,000 patients Interfacing and connecting practices takes longer than anyone will tell you Vendors are all learning too EMR data is not structured and standardized and time consuming to validate Clinical data is difficult to aggregate and report must standardize 30

31 Triad HealthCare Network Lessons Learned - Administrative Perspective Need a plan to educate and train multiple clinics (physicians and staff) Should have required EMR use to participate Develop a model to distribute maybe money earlier versus later Plan well ahead for care management and analytics Have a plan to manage your population assuming you do not have much data initially Limit your initiatives and focus on key areas You can have a lot of ammunition and never get a shot off. 31

32 Triad HealthCare Network Lessons Learned Physician Perspective Take the time to develop understanding, unity and buy-in from your core physician leaders. Physician culture is one of skepticism. Don t expect full buy in from all physicians at first. Physicians witnessing the health system committing resources based on the potential is very influential. ACO leadership needs a balance of internal and external representation old and new. Physician engagement is key. Provide many opportunities for involvement. 32

33 Triad HealthCare Network Lessons Learned Physician Perspective Be cognizant of and transparent about hot button topics money, employed vs. independent, PCP vs specialists; MEC Focus on Primary Care. Need to expand physician definition of professionalism to include a vision of a team and bigger picture. Be aware and sensitive to change overload. Don t expect too much help from the government 33
