What is the New York ehealth Collaborative? NYeC is a public private partnership established a decade ago The NYS Department of Health has made NYeC the State Designated Entity charged with leading and coordinating health information exchange (HIE) across the New York Beginning in April 2018, NYeC will contract directly with QEs for SHIN-NY services using a new performance based contracting methodology Vision A dramatically transformed healthcare system where health information exchange is universally used as a tool to make lives better Mission Improve healthcare by collaboratively leading, connecting and integrating health information exchange across the State 3
What is the SHIN-NY? The SHIN-NY is the Statewide health Information Network for NY SHIN-NY is a network of networks and includes 8 local HIEs + NYeC to provide statewide sharing of clinical information (with appropriate consent) QEs provide free core services, using government funding QEs offer different value-added services (for a charge) Statewide Patient Record Lookup Fully Implemented 4
SHIN-NY Enables and Supports Value-Based Care Leads to Better Care and Lower Costs Use of the SHIN-NY to access patient information is associated with: 57% reduction in patient readmissions within 30-days after hospital discharge 30% fewer emergency department admissions 52% reduction in laboratory tests and a 36% reduction in the estimated number of radiology exams 25% fewer repeat images within 90-days of first imaging procedure Improve patient Improve outcomes patient outcomes Reduce healthcare costs Increase accuracy and Less speed time testing of diagnosis & more on patient care Less time testing & more on patient care http://www.nyehealth.org/shin-ny/value-of-hie/ 5

Health IT Drives Success Value-Based Payment Quality Improvement EHR Adoption Quality of Data = Quality of Care Meaningful Use Quality Payment Program Patient-Centered Medical Home Advanced Primary Care Regional Health Information Organization Encounter- Based Patient-Based Population- Based 2 7
Primary Care Information Project / NYC REACH HISTORY: PCIP was founded in 2005 as a bureau of the NYC DOHMH NYC REACH created in 2010 MISSION: Support and promote primary care for all New Yorkers Improve quality of care in medically underserved areas through health information technology Promote new models of care focusing on prevention and public health priorities Develop new tools in population health management Prepare providers for healthcare reform SUCCESSES: Over 21,000 providers have joined NYC REACH, including over 1,400 small practices 2 Over 6,000 providers transmit data 8
Transition to Value-Based Payment We are well into a large-scale transition to value-based payment 2 9
What is Value-Based Payment? Value-Based Payment is any arrangement where payment is tied to value and cost of care. $ Quality Patient Satisfaction Total Cost of Care 3 0
Key Drivers for VBP Success Care of the patient requires care of the provider. Quality Patient Satisfaction Provider Satisfaction Total Cost of Care Source: Bodenhimer, T, Sinsky C. Ann Fam Medi. 2014; 12(6): 573-576 3 1
VBP Transition Will Not Be Easy Financial: How providers manage their patient panel will need to change: New concept: Attributed Patients vs. Patient Panel Attributed primary care patients drive revenue potential. Most costly patients with preventable ED and inpatient activities are a big potential source of new revenue Other revenue opportunities: Get paid more for prevention, care coordination and care management activities People: Providers compensation incentives provider contracts may incentive volume vs. value Rely more on team based approach. Delegate more activities to support staff. Use staff at top of license Potential new roles: outreach, care coordinator, care manager 3 2
VBP Transition Will Not Be Easy Process: It s not enough to keep patients healthy, take care of acute issues, and manage the chronically ill. Providers must also consider risk, quality, utilization, and cost Provider success will depend on activities like outreach, transitions of care, maximizing patient attribution, accuracy and consistency of risk coding, and new billing opportunities Technology: Understand your data: Go beyond clinical data. Risk, cost, utilization data just as important Need to know where your patients are getting care outside your organization 3 3
Practice Transformation Supports VBP Readiness Preparing for VBP requires implementing systematic change to primary care practice. How do I ensure my patients are following up on specialty referrals? What quality metrics will I be evaluated on, and how can I be aware of my performance throughout the year? Does my supply of appointments meet my demand? Are my patients sufficiently engaged? Source: Bodenhimer, T, Sinsky C. Ann Fam Medi. 2014; 12(6): 573-576 3 4
Practice Transformation Programs Primary Care Providers are not alone through this transition. NCQA Patient-Centered Medical Home (PCMH) NYS Advanced Primary Care Goal Technical Assistance Set practices up with the medical home framework; supports VBP Cost involved, fee covered by DSRIP in 2015-2016 Prepare practices with many processes and enhancements needed for VBP Two years of fully funded assistance, paid by NYS Financial Support Areas of Focus $7.50pmpm Care Management fee for all Medicaid and Managed Medicaid patients Access, Team-Based Care, Population Management, Care Management, Care Coordination, Quality Multi-payer Patient-Centered Care, Care Management, Access, HIT/Quality, payers/contracting 3 5
Health IT and Practice Transformation Optimized Health IT is key to make PCPs lives easier throughout this transition Evidence-based care: alerts that display to your staff during pre-visit planning Patient outreach: lists of which patients need which services Patient engagement: messaging through the portal (yes, even older patients!) Population management: quickly identify who is highest risk Access: determine times of highest supply and demand Care Coordination: see which specialists are not returning consult notes Quality: know exactly what your metrics are 3 6
Unlocking Potential with RHIO Connections RHIOs are an important resource for VBP success. Closing the referral loop has been a priority topic in 2017 and the RHIO incentive program supports activity alignment. Through each program, practice facilitators encourage the connection and use of a community RHIO. Data Exchange Incentive Program: money available for eligible practices interested in connecting (must have 30% Medicaid patient encounter threshold) 3 7
Next Steps Continue meeting Meaningful Use measures for Medicaid MU, MIPS, or both Evaluate gaps in your current HIT functionality Maintain your Patient-Centered Medical Home processes, if you are already recognized Enroll in the NYS Advanced Primary Care program 3 8

Quality Jersey City Medical Center (JCMC) 2013 Research Study Reduction inpatient care delay by 1.25 hours/physician/day Reduced referral leakage by 1 patient/month/physician 10% of patients discharged at least (1) day earlier/physician 20% reduction in ED patient waiting times leading up to discharge/admission Reduced hospital referral leakage by 2 cases/month/physician Specialist response time to consult request in 50% of all patients was reduced from 1-2 days (24-48 hrs) to 30 min 25% of patients length of stay reduced by one (1)day 25% of patients transferred out of CCU at least 1 day earlier 4 6
Health Outcomes Direct Access to CPOE Ability to Send PHI Consulting physician can send notes directly to CPOE Increase in co-management of patients between primary physician and hospital physicians 4 7
Patient Experience Improved communication between primary care physician and ED Physician Shorter length of stay in ED/hospital Transfer/Hand off improvement from ED to the Medical/Surgical Unit Improve Hand off from Critical Care to the Med/Surgical Unit JCMC
