HAC SUMMARY: MEASURES, PERFORMANCE PERIODS, WEIGHTS 11
HAC DOMAIN BASICS DOMAIN 1- AHRQ Measures Claims based (captures adverse events for Medicare discharges only) PSI measures calculated using ICD-10 codes and, for the secondary diagnosis, the present on admission (POA) value associated with each secondary diagnosis in the claim is N or U N = Diagnosis not present at inpatient admission U = Documentation insufficient to determine if the condition present at admission DOMAIN 2- CDC HAI Measures CDC HAI measures are chart-abstracted CDC measures calculated by dividing the total facility number of HAI events by the number of predicted HAI events 12

FY2018 HAC CHANGE: REBASING OF SIR CALCULATION SIRs under the new baseline can be calculated starting with 2015 data Will be used by CMS: FFY2018 HAC program SIRs under the original baselinescan continue to be calculated through 2016 data Will be used by CMS: FFY2018 VBP program Starting with 2017 data, SIRs will only be calculated with new baseline 16
EXAMPLE: IMPACT OF SIR REBASING 2014 SIR: 0.50 National Median: 0.45 Interpretation: Hospital saw 50% CLABSIs than predicted, compared to 2006-2008 national experience but just worse than 2014 median 2015 SIR: 1.20 National Median: 1.0 Interpretation: Hospital saw 20% CLABSIs than predicted, compared to 2015 national experience but just worse than 2015 median 17

FY2018 HAC CHANGE: WINSORIZED Z-SCORE METHODOLOGY 19
CMS FY2018 IPPS PROPOSED RULE HAC CHANGES CMS HACRP Hospital Specific Reports for FY2018 available late Summer 2017 New risk adjustments for social and disability/medical complexity? Current risk factors: age, gender, comorbidities and complications Example social factors: low-income, race/ethnicity, geographic area of residence Example disability/medical complexity factors: prior hospitalization, nursing home residence, frailty, functional limitations Potential new FY2020 HAC measures: Inpatient falls w/ injury Adverse Drug Events (ADEs) Glycemic Events Ventilator Associated Events (VAEs) 20
CONCERNS & CRITICISMS OF HAC Design that penalizes 25% of hospitals every year, even if all hospitals significantly reduce HAC rates MedPAC HACRP comments- Teaching, DSH, high-acuity hospitals penalized a disproportionate amount 21
CONCERNS & CRITICISMS OF HAC DOUBLE DIPPING? 22
Hospital Readmissions Reduction Program (HRRP) 23
HOSPITAL READMISSIONS REDUCTION PROGRAM (HRRP) To reduce preventable and unplanned hospital readmissions that occur within 30 days of discharge Excess readmissions ratio (Predicted/Expected) using 30-day riskstandardized readmission rate Maximum penalty is 3% for being worse than expected in any of the conditions (penalty applied to MS-DRG operating payments) 24
