Top date exempted for FY 2013 and FY Assesses whether a hospital had excess readmissions on a set of NQF-endorsed, 30-day risk-standardized readmissions rates (RSRR), initially: Acute Myocardial Infarction Heart Failure Pneumonia Comparison to expected national average performance Being assessed as worse than expected in any one of the defined conditions will result in a financial penalty Payment adjustment will apply for all inpatient discharges, not just the associated patient populations Penalty capped at maximum levels in given fiscal year; 1% in FY 2013, 2% in FY 2014, 3% in FY 2015 onward. Unlike VBP, no opportunity for high performers to earn bonus payments

20 Program #2: Hospital Acquired Condition 24 HAC Program Mechanics 1% Penalty For Worst Performing Quartile on Defined HAC Measures Overview of HAC Program Who is Included? HAC Performance Assessment Penalty Allocated Penalty Inclusion of all subsection (d) hospitals, HAC program will include Maryland hospitals Excludes LTCH, Cancer Hospitals, Children s Hospitals, IRFs, IPFs, Critical Access Hospitals, Hospitals in Puerto Rico or US Territories Finalized methodology assesses HAC performance on two distinct domains Patient Safety Measures CDC NHSN Measures Points assigned based on decile performance compared to other facilities, the higher the points the worse the performance. Two domain system, individual domain scores weighted and combined to form overall HAC score. Statutorily mandated penalty is a 1% cut to what otherwise would be paid for hospitals in top (worst) performing quartile. Penalty would apply to payments after the readmissions and value based purchasing program adjustments have been made Payment adjustment specifics TBD, likely in FY 2015 IPPS Proposed Rule

21 Program #2: Hospital Acquired Condition 25 Two Domain Quality Structure Finalized CMS Spurns Preferred Domain 1 Option and Weighting After Feedback Domain 1: Patient Safety Measures Two Domain Structure for HAC Reduction Program 35% + 65% July 1, June 30, 2013 Domain 2: CDC/NHSN Surveillance Measures CY2012 & CY2013 PSI-90 Composite Metric Metric FY 2015 FY 2016 FY 2017 CLABSI Including component indicators: PSI #3 Pressure Ulcer Rate PSI #6 Iatrogenic Pneumothorax Rate PSI #7 Central Venous CRBSI Rate PSI #8 Postoperative Hip Fracture Rate PSI #12 Perioperative PE DVT Rate PSI #13 Postoperative Sepsis Rate PSI #14 Postoperative Wound Dehiscence Rate PSI #15 Accidental Puncture or Laceration Rate CAUTI SSI Colon SSI Abdominal Hysterectomy MRSA C.

22 Program #2: Hospital Acquired Condition 26 Points Allocated at Individual Measure Level Points Allocated on Percentile Bands, Not Just For Worst Performers Finalized Score Allocates Points Based on Decile Ranking For Each Measure Points %ile 0 10 th 20 th 30 th 40 th 50 th 60 th 70 th 80 th 90 th 100 th The maximum point total for each measure is 10 points Example: CLABSI th th Points %ile 0 10 th 20 th 30 th 40 th 50 th 60 th 70 th 80 th 90 th 100 th 1) For domain 2 CMS will average the point total of the two measures before calculating the domain score

23 Program #2: Hospital Acquired Condition 27 One Domain Is Sufficient For HAC Score CMS Can Reweight Domains For Insufficient Cases or ICU Waiver Yes Use Domain 1 only Has complete data to calculate PSI-90 Ratio? HAC Score Domain Exclusion Decision Tree No Hospital Has ICU Waiver? Yes No HAC Score Domain 1+ Domain 2 Sufficient cases to calculate PSI- 90 Ratio? Yes No Yes No Enough cases to calculate SIR? Use Domain 2 only Yes Reported CDC NHSN data? No Use Domain 1 only No Max points for Domain 2 allocated 1 Minimum Requirements for Domain Score Domain 1: three or more eligible discharges for at least one component indicator Domain 2: >1 predicted HAI event Point Allocation 10 point maximum for each measure in the program A Rare Double Whammy Failure to report without a waiver would incur 2% IQR penalty in addition to maximum HAC points 1) Under this scenario HAC score = Domain 1+ Domain 2

24 Program #2: Hospital Acquired Condition 28 Who Are the Likely Recipients of HAC Penalties? Non Teaching, DSH and Urban Hospitals Most Likely to be Penalized Distribution of 1% Penalty By DSH Status 830 hospitals Distribution of 1% Penalty By Teaching Status 830 hospitals 24.10% Non-DSH 22.41% 17.47% 17.95% DSH Q1 DSH Q2 DSH Q3 DSH Q % 82% 16% 2% Non-Teaching Teaching Unknown Status Total DSH hospitals = 82% 1) DSH Quartile 1 represents lowest disadvantaged
