Population Health Management Managed Care Medicare Advantage Dual Eligible Special Needs Plans Chronic Disease Special Needs Plans Institutional Special Needs Plans Managed Long Term Services and Supports Accountable Care Organizations Bundled Payments Primary Care Medical Homes Primary Care Case Management Independent Practice Associations Provider Hospital Organization Health Maintenance Organization Preferred Provider Organization Program of All Inclusive Care for the Elderly Continuing Care Retirement Communities Population Health Management the technical field of endeavor which utilizes interventions to help improve the morbidity patterns and the health care use behavior of defined populations. PHM is distinguished from disease management by including more chronic conditions and diseases, by use of "a single point of contact and coordination", and by "predictive modeling across multiple clinical conditions".phm is considered broader than disease management in that it also includes "intensive care management for individuals at the highest level of risk" and "personal health management... for those at lower levels of predicted health risk". Managed Care a variety of techniques intended to reduce the cost of providing health benefits and improve the quality of care ("managed care techniques"), for organizations that use those techniques or provide them as services to other organizations ("managed care organization" or "MCO"), or to describe systems of financing and delivering health care to enrollees organized around managed care techniques and concepts ("managed care delivery systems"). 3

6 Spending 4/27/2015 ACOs That Succeed Have Mastered Key Capabilities Health Information Technology Patient Engagement Clinical Operations Business Operations Physician and PAC Network Development EHR: Electronic Health Record; ACO: Accountable Care Organization Sources: 1. Succeeding as an ACO: A 6-step guide for health care organizations. Athenahealth white paper. Jul Forster AJ, et al. Accountable care strategies: Lessons from the Premier Health Care Alliance s Accountable Care Collaborative. Premier Research Institute. Aug To Succeed, ACOs Must Achieve Both Savings and High Quality ACOs Must Achieve Savings Depending on the payment model, ACOs achieve savings by spending less than historical benchmarks, capitated payments, global budgets, or bundle prices Without Sacrificing Quality To be eligible for savings, ACOs must meet performance thresholds for quality measures, which typically focus on several areas: Illustrative Shared Savings Example* Diabetes Patient Experience Respiratory Conditions Preventive Care Time Cardiovascular Conditions Readmission Rates Target spending Historical spending benchmark Pediatric Wellbeing Behavioral Health Payers evaluate ACOs based on their ability to generate savings without compromising quality of care, so ACOs focus on interventions that can both reduce costs and improve patient outcomes. ACO: Accountable Care Organization; FFS: Fee-for-Service *Illustrative for a FFS plus shared savings model. ACOs usually need to meet a minimum savings threshold to be eligible to share in savings. If costs exceed the benchmark, then some ACOs need to repay a portion of the difference. In other payment models the threshold is the capitated per member per month payment or the bundle price. 12 6

10 What is Bundling? Bundling is a single payment for an array of services Bundles are currently used in Medicare to reimburse a single provider for services rendered. o For example, CMS makes a single payment to hospitals for the care provided based on the inpatient MS-DRG Policy makers and payers are now exploring bundled payments that cross provider silos and include a variety of services from different providers. o For example hospital and physician services or all services post hospital discharge (for a specified amount of time) Physician EPISODIC PAYMENT FOR HOSPITAL CARE Hospital HOSPITAL / PAC BUNDLE LTACH IRF Home Health Hospital Readmissions Hospital SNF Other Services* * Hospital outpatient services, Part B drugs, durable medical equipment (DME), clinical laboratory services and independent outpatient therapy services. 19 CMS BPCI Program Includes Four Models Majority of Applicants Opted for Model 3 Model 1 Model 2 Model 3 Model 4 Episode All acute patients, all DRGs Selected DRGs + post-acute period PAC only for selected DRGs Selected DRGs Services included in the bundle All Part-A DRG-based payments All Part A and B services (hospital inpatient, hospital readmissions, physician, LTACH, IRF, SNF, HHA, hospital outpatient, independent outpatient therapy, labs, DME, part B drugs) All Part A and B services (hospital readmissions, physician, LTACH, IRF, SNF, HHA, hospital outpatient, independent outpatient therapy, labs, DME, part B drugs) All hospital Part A and physician Part B services plus readmissions Payment Retrospective Retrospective Retrospective Prospective Episode Duration Inpatient stay only Inpatient hospital plus 30/60/90 days 30, 60, or 90 days Inpatient hospital plus 30 days Discount Amount Up to 2 percent* 2-3 percent** 3 percent percent*** Participants 15 2,068 4, ** 0-0.5% in Year 1, 1% in year 2, and 2% in year 3 ** 3 percent discount for 30 and 60 day episodes, 2 percent discount for a 90 day episode. *** 3.25 percent applies to select cardiac and orthopedic conditions.
