1 Envisioning enhanced primary care in Singapore: a group model building approach 2 nd Asia-Pacific Region System Dynamics Conference John P. Ansah, PhD Assistant Professor Program in Health Services and Systems Research Duke-NUS Medical School, Singapore 1
2 Why is chronic care an issue? The chronic care problem is an episodic acute disease oriented system meeting a rapidly expanding long-lived population People are living longer with chronic conditions Many chronic conditions are unmanaged Unmanaged chronic conditions become complex This dynamic exacerbates system stress use of acute services (triply undesirable) Inefficiencies due to service mismatch: PCPs making referrals to specialists, specialists trying to provide primary care 2
3 Proportion with Multiple Chronic Conditions People are living longer with chronic conditions 3
4 Service mismatch: Many beds filled with people not needing acute care Based on reviewing case notes of Geriatrics ward in an acute hospital in Singapore 4
5 Enhancing Chronic Care in Singapore An effective primary care system is key to successful chronic disease management Coordination of health needs across the various medical and health-related social services Accessible, affordable and patient-centric Education and illness prevention However, Singapore s health system poses unique challenges Multiple stakeholders with competing interests Constraints on number and training of providers Limited interface between public and private sector health services 5
6 Primary Care in Singapore Polyclinics 18 polyclinics Attends to 45% of chronic patients Payment is combination of out-ofpocket, Medisave payment and subsidies Provides comprehensive range of services outpatient medical care, health screening, education and vaccinations, x-ray and laboratory services Patients assigned any available doctor from a common group of medical officers and family physician Private GP Clinics ~1,500 private GP clinics Attends to 55% of chronic patients Payment is usually on a fee-forservice basis and Medisave payment and subsidies not always available Usually do not possess on-site facilities Service provision is heterogenous some offer aesthetic medicine Patient sees the same solo physician 6
7 Primary Care Roundtable stakeholders with interests in chronic care GPs, polyclinic doctors, medical educators, representatives from hospitals and ministries, as well as health services researchers Group model building (GMB) exercise Presentations of perspectives Preliminary model Insights Subsequent integration of results into a more detailed model, capturing key dynamics 7
8 Presentation of perspectives Public primary care providers Bailing water from a leaky boat Private primary care providers Many willing but what s the business case? Government Ready to support major innovation International experts Enhanced chronic care works but the devil s in the details 8
9 Consensus: The quadruple aim A health system consists of multiple sectors: acute and chronic, generalist and specialist, public and private, and so on. This manifold enterprise is intended to produce a mix of services that maximizes the health of the population (effectiveness), while maintaining sustainable costs (efficiency) and a high level of patient and provider satisfaction. An optimal mix of these features is the so-called quadruple aim of health care. 9
10 Consensus: The level of analysis = needs segments A framework for planning, implementing, and evaluating health and health-related social services to optimize population health Objective of our efforts = meeting the needs Need = health and social features that increase risk for bad outcomes, and risk can be alleviated by providing specific services 10
11 Segments and typical needs I. Healthy, at risk II. III. Stable chronic conditions(s) Complex chronic conditions I. Long course of decline II. Limited reserve and serious exacerbations Physician-level services & procedures Patient self-management & education Home services (non-medical) Befriending services Care coordination Medication adherence Caregiver support & education Day care Skilled nursing services Monitoring of symptoms, signs, and biomarkers and prompt followup Hospice care (palliative care) 11

18 Insights GMB facilitates the identification of important system interactions A major potential policy option is to empanel patients in high risk segments under contract (e.g., in the UK mode of commissioning ) The private sector has capacity and willingness; need a business case Enhancing chronic care requires enhancing the capacity and capability of primary care Finding the optimal mix of quadruple aims To work we must consider the broader health care ecosystem 18
19 How does an enhanced chronic care sector impact the ecosystem? Investment: Staff Facilities Subsidies Training Rules of engagement: Empanelment Payment rules Regulations ENHANCED CHRONIC CARE One point of contact Coordination High capability Means: public-private partnership Staff & patient satisfaction Improved care Shift to private sector Reduced SOC & hospital use 19
20 Future Work What are the met and unmet needs? Identifying needs by segment, not just by diseases Understanding the dynamics of needs over time What makes different modes of care more or less attractive To providers To patients Engage patient groups: not involved in GMB Simulating current and potential policies Evaluating different policies in silico Performing sensitivity analysis: assessing confidence and further data needs Use models to track, reassess, improve iteratively 20
