3 My Primary Objective Today: Review Upcoming Regulatory Changes

4 Review of Proposed IPPS Rule for FY 2016 CMS-1632-P 45 CFR Part 170 Posted to Federal Registry April 30,

5 Payment/AcuteInpatientPPS/FY2016-IPPS-Proposed-Rule-Home-Page.html

6 Comment Deadline 60 Days after posting to the Federal Registry June 29, PM Eastern Time

7 CMS-1632-P

8 Question #1 What hospital reporting program would you say keeps your leadership team awake at night? A. Hospital Readmission Reduction Program B. Hospital Acquired Conditions Reduction Program C. Value Based Purchasing D. All of the Above E. None of the Above We re on Top of It!

9 A Few Odds and Ends First MS DRG Recoupment MS DRG HAC Payments Bundled Payment Future Cool Stuff

10 MS DRG Recoupment Proposed Recoupment or Repayment Adjustment Authorized by Section 631 of the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012 (ATRA) The secretary needs to recoup $11 billion over a 4-year period of FYs 2014, 2015, 2016, and Proposed rule is to establish a 0.8 percent recoupment adjustment to the standardized amount for FY 2016 payments Proposed change would recoup 3 billion dollars in FY 2016 Combined adjustments from FY 2014, 2015 and 2016 will recoup a total of 6 B Still 5 Billion Short!

13 The History of the Hospital Readmission Reduction Program Payments for FY 2013 Payments for FY 2014 Payments for FY 2015 Payments for FY 2016 Payments for FY 2017 Max Penalty 1% 2% 3% 3% 3% Acute MI Pneumonia Heart Failure COPD Total Hip/Knee CABG Planned Readmissions Excluded Based on Discharges July 1, 2008 to June 30, 2011 Version 2.1 July 1, 2009 to June 30, 2012 Version 2.1 July 1, 2010 to June 30, 2013 Version 3.0 July 1, 2011 to June 30, 2014 Version 3.0 July 1, 2012 to June 30, 2015

18 Additional Proposed Changes in FY 2016 IPPS Rule Impacting Payment Determination for FY 2017 Expansion of Pneumonia Cohort (index population) 30-day, All-Cause, Risk-Standardized Readmission Rate following Pneumonia Hospitalization (NQF-0506) Currently including only patients with a principle diagnosis of viral or bacterial pneumonia Proposing to ADD patients with a principle diagnosis (meaning present on admission) of aspiration pneumonia Proposing to ADD patients with a principle diagnosis of sepsis or respiratory failure (meaning present on admission) with a secondary diagnosis of pneumonia Proposing to begin with payment determination FY 2017 (applies to July 1, 2012 discharges forward) Midas+ will be embedding these changes into our CMS Readmission Measures (DataVision) and our Readmission Forecaster in November (after final rule passes in August 2015)

19 Expected Impact of Broader Pneumonia Cohort More hospitals will be eligible (hospitals with less than 25 cases in the three year reporting period are excluded from public reporting) Change in population would add 634,519 patients (representing a 65% increase in national population size) 42 additional hospitals will be eligible for public reporting Overall increase of 0.9 estimated in absolute percentage points Excess readmission ratios expected to change for some hospitals See Additional Details About Impact of this change at Initiatives-Patient-Assessment-Instruments/HospitalQualityInits/Measure-Methodology.html

20 NQF Plans to Pilot Risk Adjustment by Sociodemographic Variables 2 year pilot Evaluating multiple SDS methods for conceptual and empirical evidence Evaluating potential for organizations to make incorrect inferences on risk adjusted data Disincentive to provide care to underserved or under privileged populations Evaluating potential data constraints and burden Anticipate that multiple criteria for application of SDS adjustment will evolve Use for Performance Improvement Only Use for P4P Accountability measures 16 readmission measures identified in the initial review

43 Adding 3-item Care Transition Measure to HCAPHS Set (applies to FY 2018 Program) First reported on Hospital Care December 2014 Endorsed by CMS and NQF as a hospital level comparison metric but NOT recommended as an internal tool to compare performance across nursing units or providers During this hospital stay, staff took my preferences and those of my family or caregiver into account in deciding what my health care needs would be when I left. When I left the hospital, I had a good understanding of the things I was responsible for in managing my health. When I left the hospital, I clearly understood the purpose for taking each of my medications.

51 New Scoring for 3-Care Transition Measures pages to from Final FY 2015 IPPS Rule Increasing from eight to nine dimensions For each of the nine dimensions, Achievement Points (0-10) and Improvement Points (0-9), the larger of the two would be summed to create a prenormalized HCAHPS Base Score (0-90 points) The pre-normalized base score would be multiplied by 8/9 ( ) and rounded up to create the normalized HCAHPS Base score Each of the nine dimensions would be of equal weight so that the normalized HCAHPS Base Score would range from 0 to 80 points HCAHPS Consistency Points would be calculated in the same way as before and would continue to range between 0 and 20 points and will now consider scores across all nine dimensions Final score of points will be the sum of the HCAHPS Base Score and Consistency Points 51

53 Midas+ Working on Solutions to Improve Hospital Care Transitions Palo Alto Research Center and Midas+ are developing a post-discharge Patient Engagement Information Service that combines realtime patient communication and data analytics to ensure optimal postdischarge patient care.

54 Using the PatientCare App Proactively monitors and instructs patients during their first month after discharge, when a majority of lapses and readmissions occur. Real-time, regular communication is personalized for each patient, promoting adherence to often misunderstood or unheeded discharge instructions. Changes in patient status are tracked and analyzed over time via a care management dashboard, allowing caregivers to stay up-to-date regarding issues such as post-discharge patient compliance, and tailor care recommendations in a timely fashion. Better communication between caregivers and patients helps to ensure nothing falls between the cracks.

Beginning with HAC Program FY 2017 Hospitals without a waiver that fail to submit NHSN data will get 10 points for each infection condition not submitted No extraordinary circumstances exemptions provided for in the final rule

68 No Modifications to FY 2016 HAC Program

69 Possible Changes to PSI-90 Composite Measure Changes would require future rule making to include in HAC Program The PSI 90 Composite measure currently consists of PSI 3 Pressure ulcer rate PSI 6 Iatrogenic pneumothorax rate PSI 7 Central venous catheter-related blood stream infections rate PSI 8 Postoperative hip fracture rate PSI 12 Postoperative pulmonary embolism/deep vein thrombosis rate PSI 13 Postoperative sepsis rate PSI 14 Wound dehiscence rate PSI 15 Accidental puncture and laceration rate. PSI 9 Perioperative hemorrhage rate PSI 10 Perioperative physiologic metabolic derangement rate PSI 11 Post-operative respiratory failure rate Currently Under Review by NQF for inclusion

70 Possible Changes to Scoring Infections CAUTI and CLABSI have now completed the NQF maintenance review process, and modified versions of the measures were re-endorsed by NQF on November 10, New measures provide for an optional statistic in addition to the SIR called the Adjusted Ranking Metric (ARM) The ARM accounts for variation in patient risk by vascular access type AND variation in the number of patients a facility treats in a given month The statistic allows for better comparison across facilities CMS will use the SIR value in FY 2016 and consider the potential benefits of using the ARM in future programs

71 Proposed Changes to HAC Reduction Program FY 2018 Add non-icu CAUTI and CLABSI SIR (data collection to begin with Jan 1, 2015 discharges) Pediatric Adult medical Surgical Medical/Surgical Update to CDC NHSN Standard Population Data (using CY 2015 as national baseline similar to the Value Based Purchasing Program)

74 Reporting Timelines for FY 2016 HAC Scores Hospital-specific reports available late summer 2015 via the QualityNet Secure Portal. Hospitals have a period of 30 days after the information is posted to submit corrections

75 Proposed Disaster Extraordinary Circumstances Waiver for HAC Reduction Program Proposed rule is for hospitals that experience a natural disaster or other event that prevents them from submitting their claims to CMS to submit a waiver request within 90 days of disaster.
