The RIR is calculated based on the readmission rates per 1,000 beneficiaries and this formula: (Baseline-Current)/Baseline.

14 Where Should We Focus Readmission Efforts? 51.2% of readmissions in Glendale came from patients discharged to SNF and HHA In Glendale, patients discharged to SNFs have the highest readmission rate with second largest volume of readmissions Out of 6 conditions penalized by CMS, heart failure has the largest volume of readmissions and the highest readmission rate 1:3 patients in Glendale readmit to a different hospital 17.5% of readmissions came from patients discharged to home 14 Data files provided to Health Services Advisory Group (HSAG) by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) were used for analysis in this report. The data files include Part-A claims for Medicare Fee-for-Service beneficiaries.

15 30-Day Readmissions Among Medicare FFS Beneficiaries on HRMs in California: Q Q Day All-Cause Readmission Rate 17.9% 30-Day HRM Readmission Rate 20.7% Readmissions among beneficiaries on HRMs are much more frequent than the general population, suggesting ample opportunity for improvement. Percent of 30-day readmits with an anticoagulant or diabetes agent ADE are much higher than the percent of readmits with an opioid ADE. 15 Data files provided to Health Services Advisory Group (HSAG) by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) were used for analysis in this report. The data files include Part-A and Part-D claims for Medicare Fee-for-Service beneficiaries.

26 CMS Readmission Updates and Resources

27 Preventing Hospital Readmissions What Is CMS Looking For? December 2017, CMS revised the State Operating Manual (SOM) Guidance to state enforcement agencies on what to look for when determining compliance to the Conditions of Participation: Discharge planning Evaluate the effectiveness of a hospital s discharge planning process. Focus on readmissions: Could anything have been done differently in the discharge planning process to prevent them? 27 Reference for SOM: Guidance/Guidance/Manuals/downloads/som107ap_a_hospitals.pdf

28 Preventing Hospital Readmissions What Is CMS Looking For? (cont.) Hospitals are now expected to: Track readmission rates at least quarterly Identify potentially preventable readmissions (sample) Choose at least one interval to track (7- or 30-day 1 ) Conduct an in-depth review of the discharge planning process for the sample Review 10% of potentially preventable readmissions or 15 cases per quarter 2 Revise/improve processes to address factors identified that contribute to preventable readmissions Other intervals are permissible 2. Whichever is larger is suggested but not required

32 Why do You Think 7-Day Readmissions Are Occurring? 32

33 Why Are 7-Day Readmissions Happening? Potential Gaps 1. Poor patient self-management skills 2. Low health literacy 3. Neglecting chronic comorbid conditions 4. Inaccurate medication history/medication reconciliation 5. Unrecognized social determinants of health 6. Higher patient acuity management in the post-acute setting 7. Lack of timely follow-up calls and appointments after discharge 8. Lack of standardized discharge processes 33

34 #1 Inaccurate Medication History/ Medication Reconciliation Common Challenges: 1. Inaccurate medication histories and lack of comprehensive medication reconciliation 2. Medication adherence issues: financial, transportation, side effects, etc. 3. Low health literacy leading to misunderstanding of the medication instructions 4. Lack of medication knowledge leading to patients taking contraindicated medications (e.g. aspirin and Coumadin), etc. 34

35 #2 Higher Patient Acuity Management in the Post-Acute Setting Common Challenges: 1. Staffing model often does not provide enough manpower to manage complex patients (RN, MD, respiratory) 2. Staff perhaps lacking knowledge to recognize early signs of deterioration for patients who are likely to be readmitted 3. Missing or incomplete documentation in the post-acute referral process that accurately conveys the severity of the patient s illness or condition 35

36 #3 Lack of Timely Follow-up Calls and Appointments After Discharge Common Challenges: 1. Process and accountability for scheduling followup visit prior to discharge 2. Lack of an ongoing primary care relationship 3. Confusion between hospitalist, primary care physician, and/or specialist regarding patient s current course of treatment 4. Patients do not feel well enough to leave home for appointments or have limited transportation options 36

37 #4 Lack of Standardized Discharge Processes Common Challenges: 1. Hospital staff members lack knowledge about SNFs capabilities, especially emergency department and front-line staff 2. Patients/families have unrealistic expectations about staff and resources at nursing homes and want to go back to the hospital 3. Inconsistent information sent from hospital such as mismatched transfer forms, discharge summaries, missing or inconsistent medications list, instructions for care, and patient histories 4. Lack of standardized procedures to conduct successful handoff, such as use of SBAR, 1 nurse-to-nurse phone call, doc-todoc phone call Situation, background, assessment, recommendation (SBAR)

38 Table Top Activity Review your tables assigned gap topic: 1. Inaccurate medication history/medication reconciliation 2. Higher patient acuity management in the post-acute setting 3. Lack of timely follow-up calls and appointments after discharge 4. Lack of standardized discharge processes Select one of the common challenges listed for your assigned gap topic. Develop solutions for that challenge. Be specific and identify 4 5 tactics to implement that solution. (Example on next page). Identify spokes person to report out tactics to the group. 38

40 Key Lesson A key lesson learned is that a portfolio of mutually reinforcing interventions is needed to achieve project impact, and success depends more on robust implementation than on choice of any one intervention. New York Office of Mental Health
