1 REDUCING READMISSIONS through TRANSITIONS IN CARE Christina R. Whitehouse, PhD, CRNP, CDE Postdoctoral Research Fellow NewCourtland Center for Transitions and Health University of Pennsylvania School of Nursing Associate Fellow of the Leonard Davis Institute of Health Economics Pennsylvania Coalition of Nurse Practitioners November 4, th Annual Conference Erie, PA Define and discuss the complexity of care transitions. OBJECTIVES Identify gaps in care and barriers to safe transitions in care. Discuss models of transition in care. Discuss transitional care management (TCM) codes and requirements for reimbursement. Case Study An 83-year-old male patient with multiple problems was admitted with CHF exacerbation. During his inpatient stay he received IV furosemide, and in five days, he appears euvolemic and ready for discharge. He receives his printed discharge and verbal instructions from the nurse along with written prescriptions. He has a routine exam scheduled with you in 2.5 weeks. Although his discharge instructions indicate to see a provider within a week he decides to wait since he already has a scheduled appointment. 1
2 Within eight days, his spouse contacts your office to notify you that the patient is readmitted to the hospital with another CHF exacerbation. She states both she and the patient were confused about his medications and the patient did not take his diuretic. TRANSITIONAL CARE is a What is Transitional Care? Range of time limited services and environments that are designed to ensure health care continuity and avoid preventable poor outcomes among at risk populations as they move from one level of care to another, among multiple health care team members and across settings such as hospitals to homes. Adapted from, J Am Geriatr Soc, 2003, 51(4): Why are we talking about this? 35 million hospital discharges annually in the United States In 2014, hospitals provided 9.5 million Medicare discharges Hospital admission can be the first of many care transitions for older patients ~46% of hospitalized pts >65yrs are discharged to home under self-care 20% are discharged to skilled nursing care Nearly 50% of those transferred from hospital to SNF/rehab have 4+ additional care transitions in the next 12 months Source: MedPAC: A data book: Healthcare Spending and the Medicare Program, June
3 Affordable Care Act (ACA) established in Hospital Readmission Reduction Program (HRRP) Under this program, hospitals are financially penalized if they have higher than expected risk-standardized 30-day readmission rates for acute myocardial infarction, heart failure, and pneumonia. Expanded in 2015 to include patients with acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and patients admitted for elective total hip arthroplasty and total knee arthroplasty. Medicare fee-for-service, all-cause, 30-day readmission rates Source: Office of Information Products and Data Analytics, CMS 3
4 Potential Problems during Transitions High rates of patient/safety medical errors Serious unmet patient/family needs Poor patient care experiences Tremendous cost and human burden Potential Problems during Transitions Co-morbidity associated with many adverse effects Poor QOL Polypharmacy Increased ADRs Use increased resources Increased mortality Caregiver burden Multiple conditions/therapies Functional deficits Poor Outcomes: Patient Factors Emotional problems Poor general health behaviors Poor subjective health rating Lack of support Cognitive impairment Language, literacy and culture 4
5 Multiple providers Inconsistent medical management Poor Outcomes: System Factors Poor/incomplete communication between providers and across settings Limited access to services (reimbursement) Narrow perceived accountability Inadequate patient and caregiver education Lack of systems to bridge transitions Keys to successful Transitions Coordination and Communication Evidence based practices to facilitate safe transitions of care Comprehensive, multidisciplinary, discharge planning Ideally starting from day #1 of admission; appropriate referral to PAC Timely and complete handoffs to outpatient providers Ensuring that discharge summaries are complete and accurate Communication of diagnostic procedure/test results Notification of medication changes Communication regarding pending tests/procedures after discharge Accurate and complete medication reconciliation Patient and caregiver education prior to discharge Discharge instructions must be easy to read and understand Techniques like the Teach Back method can be helpful Close follow up appointments with outpatient providers Ideally coordinated prior to hospital discharge SOURCE: Care Transitions: Best Practices and Evidence-based Programs. Center for Healthcare Research and Transformation (2014) 5
6 Evidence Based Models for Transitions in Care Care Transitions Intervention (CTI) Transitions Care Model (TCM) Project BOOST (Better Outcomes for Older Adults through Safe Transitions) Project RED (Re-Engineered Discharge) Uses nurse, social worker or community worker as a transitions coach The Care Transitions Intervention (CTI) Four elements of CTI: Medication self-management Patient-centered health record Primary Care Provider/ Specialist Follow-up Knowledge of Red flags Intervention patients had: Lower re-hospitalization at 30 and 90 days Lower costs at 180 days Coleman et al Arch Intern Med Sep 25;166(17): Developed in 1981 as a response to shortened hospital lengths of stay Transitional Care Model Pressure to provide effective health care services at lowest cost Initially tested with early discharge of low birth weight infants Recently the model has been applied to improve outcomes and reduce cost of care for hospitalized elders SOURCE: care model/ 6
