1 MESA COUNTY PHYSICIANS IPA INCENTIVE PROGRAM The Incentive Program for Mesa County Physician IPA (MCPIPA) has been developed to meet criteria established by the general membership of our association. Funding for this program is contractual through the Medical Services Agreement between MCPIPA and Rocky Mountain HMO. The distribution of incentive monies is based on criteria mutually agreed upon between both parties for programs based on the chronic care or clinical model and community-based initiatives. In a typical year, the incentive program averages approximately $1.0 million dollars. The Incentive Program is comprised of three components: Quality Health Network (QHN) one-sixth (1/6 th ) of the incentive dollars received quarterly is allocated to QHN to offset access fees for our physician members. Continuation of this benefit is voted on annually at the meeting of the general membership. Reward for Participation (R4P) one-sixth (1/6 th ) of the incentive dollars is allocated and paid quarterly to those physician members who participate in MCPIPA programs designed to enhance Education and Quality Improvement Programs. General Incentive two-thirds (2/3) of the incentive dollars are allocated and paid quarterly to our physician members. The incentive monies are distributed through two separate funding pools: Primary Care and Specialists. Reward For Participation 1/6 Quality Health Network 1/6 General Incentives 2/3
2 INCENTIVE PROGRAMS QUALITY HEALTH NETWORK (QHN) one-sixth (1/6 th ) of the incentive dollars is allocated each quarter to QHN to offset access fees for MCPIPA member physicians as a benefit of membership. Continuation of this program and payment distribution is voted on annually by the MCPIPA general membership. The MCPIPA Board of Directors approves each quarterly payment. REWARD FOR PARTICIPATION (R4P) One-sixth (1/6 th ) of the incentive dollars is allocated and paid quarterly to those physician members who voluntarily participate in R4P approved Education and Quality Programs. The purpose of the Reward for Participation program is to improve the quality and cost efficiency of medical care in Mesa County through enhanced support of the IPA s mission and goals as well as a motivation to increase participation in the IPA s programs and projects by the membership. R4P is available to all members who participate at any level based on their personal choice. The R4P program was redesigned at the request of the IPA Board in response to positive feedback from our member physicians who attended the Focus Groups held in the summer of Effective January 1, 2015, the R4P Program will move from a CME attendance based model to supporting programs more directly connected to the IPA. The R4P program will consist of quarterly meetings with a focus on matters of interest to IPA physician members, followed by an opportunity for break-out sessions for physicians to discuss various topics. Topics will cover issues that relate to improving the cohesion, cooperation, and effectiveness of the physician community as a whole. This adjustment to the R4P Program is intended to broaden the audience of physicians who engage in R4P, improve collaboration, and provide a meaningful engine for achieving initiatives that matter to IPA physicians. Meetings The R4P meetings will be held quarterly at a local venue such as The DoubleTree Hotel or similar location. An agenda including discussion topics and meeting details will be sent in advance of each meeting. Meeting times: 5:30 6:00 Dinner 6:00 6:30 MCPIPA Business meeting 6:30 7:30 Breakout Sessions 2015 Schedule: Tuesday January 27, 2015 Annual Membership Meeting Tuesday May 19, Q2015 R4P Quarterly Meeting Tuesday August 18, Q2014 R4P Quarterly Meeting Tuesday November 17, Q2015 R4P Quarterly Meeting Agenda Topics: We value your input and hope you will share ideas for discussion topics for the break-out sessions. Please contact the IPA with your suggestions. The clinical topic at each quarterly meeting may be further developed at the next quarterly meeting if warranted based on interest expressed by the physicians. Compensation Under this new R4P Program, MCPIPA member physicians will only be compensated for their attendance or presentation at the quarterly meeting. Attendance Compensation: MCPIPA member physicians who attend the R4P quarterly meetings will receive a flat rate per meeting. Please see the Budget and Determination of Compensation below for potential compensation. Policies and procedures for attendance will be developed by the IPA. Presenter Compensation: MCPIPA member physician who presents a topic and lead the discussion will be compensated at the flat rate of $500.
3 Budget and Determination of Compensation The R4P budget is funded by allocating 1/6 of the total IPA incentive dollars. Based on historical data from 4Q2013-3Q2014, the average R4P dollars available for distribution each quarter was approximately $62,270. Using the amount of $62,270 the calculation methodology would be as follows: REVENUE TOTAL AMOUNT RECEIVED THIS QUARTER $62, EXPENSES Facility for meeting and cost of food and drink $11, Based on average of 150 attendees Compensation to IPA Physicians Member presenters $2, Based on $500 flat rate to each presenter; two presenters per breakout session; two different break-out sessions per quarterly meeting Sub-total Expenses $13, Revenue less Expenses or Amount to be Distributed to Attendees $48, Number of Physician Attendees: Based on average of 150 physicians which is historical attendance at the Annual Meetings 150 Potential Flat Rate for Attendance at this quarterly meeting $ Please note: The program changes described herein are contingent on IPA membership approval at the meeting scheduled for January 27, The Monthly All Physician meetings hosted by MCPIPA and held on the second Wednesday of each month at Community Hospital will no longer be held and will replaced with the R4P Quarterly Meeting. The IPA will not compensate IPA member physicians for their attendance at local CME events such as the St. Mary s Grand Rounds held on Tuesday mornings, the Friday morning Community Hospital sessions, or the Regularly Scheduled Sessions such as the Rad-Path Conference, the Ortho Journal Club or the Breast Cancer Conference. Because compensation will be paid several months after each meeting it is not possible to determine the flat rate attendance amount in advance. The Incentive Program contribution from Rocky Mountain Health Plans is generally received the early in the second month following the end of a quarter. For example, the first quarter (ending March 31) is generally received in early May; second quarter in August, etc. Going forward under this new program, all expenses relating to the quarterly meetings such as food, drink, venue costs, presenters, etc., will be paid out of the R4P incentive fund and remaining dollars will be shared equally among the attendees. The entire amount received will be paid out each quarter. The IPA plans to increase access to and involvement in R4P programs by initiating the changes described above. During the time frame 4Q2013 3Q2014, based on the point system: o 29 MCPIPA member physicians shared 215 different presentations. o Based on top points - 26 MCPIPA member physicians received an amount greater than $1,800 based on their attendance and/or presentation points which were equal to or greater than 20. o Based on top dollars 53 MCPIPA member physicians received total compensation greater than $1,000.
4 GENERAL INCENTIVE two-thirds (2/3) of the incentive dollars are paid quarterly to physicians for their participation in specialty specific incentive programs. The total available dollars are divided by the total number of participating physicians to determine the baseline allocation. Two separate pools of money are created for distribution: Primary Care and Specialists. The amount of dollars available for each of the two pools is determined by the baseline physician allocation multiplied by the number of physicians in each pool. Disclaimer - Incentives are paid as indicated in the criteria described in this document and as determined by the Quality Value and Outcomes (QVOC)) and the Physician Incentive and Engagement Committee (PIE), in cooperation with the leadership group at Rocky Mountain Health Plans (RMHP). The QVOC, with RMHP leadership and the PIE, will determine the Incentive Program guidelines and the application of the guidelines to the particular situations. The MCPIPA Board of Directors will review the activities of the QVOC and PIE quarterly. The QVOC and PIE, with approval of the MCPIPA Board of Directors, may make adjustments to the Incentive Plan as they deem necessary to reach the goals and objectives of the program. The terms of the Program, can be changed or discontinued at the discretion of the MCPIPA Board of Directors.
