1 Quality Reporting in the Public Domain
2 Disclaimer This material is designed and provided to communicate information about inpatient coding, clinical documentation, and/or compliance in an educational format and manner The author is not providing or offering legal advice but, rather, practical and useful information and tools to achieve compliant results in the area of clinical documentation, data quality, and coding Every reasonable effort has been taken to ensure the educational information provided is useful and accurate Applying best practice solutions and achieving results will vary in each hospital/facility and clinical situation 2
3 Objectives Identify sources in the public domain reporting quality measures Understand the role of documentation and coding in the outcomes of public reporting Incorporate strategies into the workflow to achieve the appropriate outcomes 3
4 Impact of Documentation Clear, complete, timely and accurate documentation has a significant impact on many facets of fiscal and operational data that will continue to increase with healthcare reform Severity of Illness and Risk of Mortality Reimbursement RAC Audits and Compliance Documentation Medical Necessity and Length of Stay Present on Admission and HACs Profiling Hospital and Physicians 4

16 Capturing Other (Additional) Diagnoses Re-visit UHDDS Definition Any condition that is documented by a treating physician, and: Clinically evaluated; or Diagnostically tested; or Therapeutically treated; or Causes an increase in LOS or nursing care Note: In addition to being documented by the physician, only one of the criteria above must be met in order for a condition to be considered a secondary diagnosis 16
17 Types of Quality Measures Active Hospital must collect data from medical record and submit data Used for Core Measures & CDC/NHSN Healthcare-associated Infections Complex abstraction rules; time consuming Hospital has generous amount of time for re-reviews and validation Passive Claims-based Used for Mortality, Readmission, AHRQ Patient Safety Indicators (PSI), Hospital Acquired Conditions (HAC) Based strictly on coding/claims data Less opportunity for re-reviews and validation 17
18 Hospital Readmissions Reduction Program Readmission Measures Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) Heart Failure (HF) Pneumonia Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) Total hip arthroplasty/total knee arthroplasty (THA/TKA) Coronary Artery Bypass Graft (CABG) Surgery 18
19 Hospital Acquired Conditions (HAC) Original HACs Reduces severity of an individual MS-DRG Relatively small impact HAC Reduction Program Financial penalty for lowest performing hospitals Hospitals performing in the lowest 25% will have a 1% reduction in Medicare DRG revenue 19

22 Hospital Acquired Conditions (HAC) Financial Impact Penalty only Based on combined domain scores All hospitals in lowest performing quartile have 1% penalty Total Medicare DRG revenue 22
23 HAC Documentation Strategy Appropriate documentation and coding of complication Clinical indicator support Condition ruled out Contradictory information Appropriate assignment of present on admission indicator Signs and symptoms on admission Timing of labs and diagnostic tests 23
24 Improvement Strategies - Documentation Present on admission Y condition was present on admission N condition was NOT present on admission W provider is unable to clinically determine whether condition was present on admission or not U documentation is insufficient to determine if condition is present on admission E diagnosis is exempt from POA reporting W is treated the same as Y by CMS 24
25 Querying in the HAC World There should NEVER be a consideration of: Will I get a better financial outcome if it s a POA of N or POA of Y? Do you have an escalation policy? Very helpful when querying to confirm a diagnosis or when clinical indicators are not present 25
26 Other Opportunities Review to ensure accurate information is captured Discharge Disposition Admission Source Nature of Admission 26
27 Strategy for Success HIM/ Documentation Nursing Finance Medical Staff Quality/PI 27

31 CDSs and Coders Partners in Success Develop joint education for CDSs and coders Review clinical scenarios Review Coding Clinics and annual coding updates Complete pre-bill record reviews Understand what queries are generated retrospectively and generate the queries concurrently when possible Reconcile concurrent worksheets with the final coding This should be approached as a learning opportunity 31
32 Overall Clinical Documentation Review Strategy Develop a holistic and comprehensive approach to record reviews Focus on the on record as a whole and the interdependence of each component Understand the evolution and interplay of all diagnoses Follow up reviews are critically important 32
