3 Coordinated Multi-payer Leadership Value of working together recognized by payers with close involvement from other stakeholders Consistent incentives and standardized reporting rules and tools Change in practice patterns as program applies to many patients Enough scale to justify investments in new infrastructure and operational models Motivate patients to play larger role in their health and health care 3

4 Included in Payment Improvement: Medical Homes, Episodes, and Health Homes Prevention, screening, chronic care Patient populations (examples) Healthy, at-risk Chronic, e.g., - CHF - Diabetes Care/payment models Medical homes - Care coordination - Overall health mgmt - Rewards quality and cost saving Acute + post-acute care Supportive care Acute medical, e.g. - CHF - Pneumonia Acute procedural, e.g. - Hip replacement Developmental disability Long-term care Behavioral health (mental illness/ substance abuse) Episodes - Rewards high-quality, effective care delivery for a specific episode Health homes + episodes - Health home: care coordination - Episodes: payment for supportive care service

7 How episodes work for patients and providers (1/2) Patients and providers deliver care as today (performance period) Patients seek care and select providers as they do today Providers submit claims as they do today Payers reimburse for all services as they do today 7

8 How episodes work for patients and providers (2/2) Calculate incentive payments based on outcomes after close of 12 month performance period Review claims from performance period to identify a Principal Accountable Provider (PAP) for each episode Payers calculate average cost per episode for each PAP 1 Compare average costs to predetermined commendable and acceptable levels 2 Based on results, providers will: Share savings: avg. costs below commendable levels /quality targets met Pay part of excess cost: avg. costs above acceptable level See no change in pay: avg. costs between commendable and acceptable levels 1 Outliers removed and adjusted for risk and hospital per diems 2 Appropriate cost and quality metrics based on latest and best clinical evidence, nationally recognized clinical guidelines and local considerations 8

10 How the Episode Payment Model Works Historic distribution of provider average costs for an episode are assessed Year 1 results Year 1 results High Average cost per episode for each provider Low Individual providers, in order from highest to lowest average cost 10

11 How the Episode Payment Model Works Thresholds are selected to promote highquality and cost-effective care Year 1 results Year 1 results High Average cost per episode for each provider Acceptable Commendable Gain sharing limit Low Individual providers, in order from highest to lowest average cost 11

12 How the Episode Payment Model Works Thresholds remain the same the next year with expectation that cost effectiveness will improve Year 2 results High Year 2 results Year 1 results Average cost per episode for each provider Acceptable Commendable Gain sharing limit Low Individual providers, in order from highest to lowest average cost 12

13 How the Episode Payment Model Works Shared Savings Year 2 results High Average cost per episode for each provider Acceptable Commendable Gain sharing limit Low Individual providers, in order from highest to lowest average cost 13

15 How the Episode Payment Model Works Shared Costs Year 1 results High Average cost per episode for each provider Acceptable Commendable Gain sharing limit Low Individual providers, in order from highest to lowest average cost 15

16 How the Episode Payment Model Works Quality of care protected by limits on gain sharing and required quality metrics Year 1 results High Average cost per episode for each provider Acceptable Commendable Gain sharing limit Low Individual providers, in order from highest to lowest average cost 16

17 Included in Payment Improvement: Medical Homes, Episodes, and Health Homes Prevention, screening, chronic care Patient populations (examples) Healthy, at-risk Chronic, e.g., - CHF - Diabetes Care/payment models Medical homes - Care coordination - Overall health mgmt - Rewards quality and cost saving Acute + post-acute care Supportive care Acute medical, e.g. - CHF - Pneumonia Acute procedural, e.g. - Hip replacement Developmental disability Long-term care Behavioral health (mental illness/ substance abuse) Episodes - Rewards high-quality, effective care delivery for a specific episode Health homes + episodes - Health home: care coordination - Episodes: payment for supportive care service

18 Medical Home: Rollout Timeline PCMH coverage strategy over next several years Wave 3 Wave 1 CPCI Wave 2 Open to all (primary care early adopters enroll 10/1/13-12/15/13) Expansion to remaining primary care (family practice, etc.) Start of wave: October 2012 Jan 2014 Enroll throughout 2014

19 Wave 1: Comprehensive Primary Care Initiative (CPCI) 69 primary care practices FFS + enhanced payments Improving patient experience Practices responsible for ALL patients Quality, cost, and transformation milestones evaluated PMPM began October 12 Medicare $8 40; risk-adjusted Medicaid +$3 kids; +$7 adults Private ~$5 Must meet targets Quality, performance, transformation Shared savings model yrs

20 Wave 2: Patient Centered Medical Home (PCMH) Enrollment 637 primary care physicians Covering nearly 243,000 Medicaid beneficiaries (including 40,000 covered in Wave 1: CPC) Together PCMH and CPC cover about 72% of all eligible Medicaid beneficiaries 20

21 With PCMH, existing fee-for-service reimbursement remains the same Patients and providers deliver care as today Patients seek care and select providers as they do today Providers submit claims as they do today Payers reimburse for all services as they do today

22 But PCPs can also receive shared savings payments For a shared savings entity (PCMH or group of voluntarily affiliated PCMHs) A B C Providers must perform on quality metrics Must meet ¾ of targets for quality metrics And providers must Remain in good standing for practice support payments Payers calculate average yearly cost per member for each shared savings entity Average costs are compared to Pre-set medium and high cost levels Benchmark costs, based on historical costs projected forward Results PCMH can earn shared savings payment in one of two ways (receive greater of the two): Beating its own benchmark cost Beating a system-wide medium cost threshold If the PCMH is not eligible for either payment, then the provider sees no change in reimbursement.
