Session Agenda 11:15 AM 11:25 AM Introduction by Carol Beasley, IHI 11:26 AM 11:41 AM Genesys Health PHO, Southeastern MI, Trissa Torres 11:42 AM 11:57 AM Beacon LLC, Central, Eastern, and Nothern Maine, Mike Donahue 11:58 AM 12:13 PM Michigan Pioneer ACO, Southeastern MI, Suzanne White 12:14 PM 12:29 PM Bellin Thedacare Healthcare Partners, Pete Knox, Jim Dietsche 12:30 PM Wrap Up Pioneer ACO Overview Initiated by CMS for Medicare beneficiaries First performance period started January 1, 2012 Moves from shared savings to population based payment model Balanced with requirements for care quality and patient experience Additional information at: http://innovations.cms.gov/initiatives/aco/pioneer/ 2
Guidance to Presenters Brief overview of the ACO, e.g. type of structure and governance, strategy, and set-up. How do you plan to get shared savings? What s working now? What are the big surprises/challenges? Next steps for your ACO. Transforming to ACO: Early Lessons Learned from Genesys Health System, Flint Michigan Trissa Torres, MD, MSPH, FACPM Sr. Vice President Continuum Portfolio, IHI Prior Medical Director of Genesys HealthWorks Population Health Initiatives Dec 2012 3
Genesys PHO GenesysHealth System, an integrated health system with full continuum of care and primary care PHO GenesysPhysician Hospital Organization (PHO), a collaboration between GenesysHealth System and GenesysPhysicians Group Practice includes 170 PCPs contracting with 400 Preferred Panel Specialists Selected by the Center for Medicaid and Medicare Services (CMS) as a Pioneer Accountable Care Organization (ACO), initiate Jan 2012 Approximately 18,000 attributed Medicare lives Shared savings/shared risk payment model 7 Genesys: Unique at Onset Longstanding commitment to transformation driven by longstanding financial pressures In early 1990s, combined hospitals and took ~700 beds out of the system Strong PCP base x 17 yrs Success with managing risk Health Navigator interventions x 17 years Alignment with vision & strategy, strong leadership commitment Articulated PHM model and Triple Aim outcomes 4
Genesys HealthWorks Key Elements of Population Health Management Strong primary care practice team focused on prevention and chronic care Engaged activated patients Longitudinal care plan coordinated across the system, optimizing care transitions High reliability, quality, experience and safetyassured at all points of care Community engagement to create healthy environments Superior information management and reporting capabilities Aligned payment systems Genesys Views ACO as Opportunity To further align payment model with care model To scale up and spread HealthWorks care model to larger proportion of population served To bring other members of the continuum in line with both the care model and payment model (specialists, hospital, homecare) Key Question: Is our system sustainable during the transformation process? 5
Early Utilization Impact: First Six Months Pioneer ACO data minimally available during the first six month period Since the Genesys PHO Pioneer ACO started in January 1, 2012, Genesys has experienced the following. Inpatient utilization: relatively unchanged Inpatient length of stay (LOS): relatively unchanged Observation cases: significantly increased Home Health visits: moderately increased ER visits: overall visits increased, volume of lower acuity cases decreased ACO capture of out of network use: unchanged to date The Power of Aligned Incentives and Physician Specific Data Significant difference in physician performance when their financial incentives are aligned Data for managed care patients showed only 15% out-of-network use CMS ACO data initially showed 40% out-of-network use* From April through June 2012, only aggregate data available Discussion of aggregate level data did not change out-of-system use patterns Reports showing out-of-network use by PCPnow available Initiated face-to-face coaching visits Results pending *Patient incentives not aligned 6
Alignment Accelerates Physician Engagement and Improvement Many historic barriers to collaboration have been dramatically lessened Primary care and specialists embraced the opportunity to work together on governance, finance and care redesign Established standardized improvement methodology and cross continuum improvement teams Leveraged co-management physicians previously trained in a standardized improvement Frequent and Repeated Communication Pays off Engaging key stakeholders using consistent communication mechanisms is crucial Weekly Updates provide a quick and transparent snapshot of the week s highlights Keeps leadership stakeholders up-to-date Helps address uncertainty inherent in a demonstration project Provides an opportunity to learn real time along with the Genesys executives Explanations of the ACO model need to be repeated several times to ensure even health care finance savvy stakeholders understand the risk sharing concepts, funds flow, and change in drivers when becoming an ACO Time and resources needed to adequately communicate and educate on the transformation to fee for value should not be underestimated 7
Benefits of Taking the Early Risk Positioned Genesys as a leader in the transformation of health care Attracted other organizations interested in partnership opportunities Attracted other payers interested in evolving payment models Still to Come Evolve Payment Model Optimize Care Transitions across continuum Expand patient, family and community engagement Example: Advanced Care Planning Ongoing commitment to Health System transformation, not just a product line Integrate into Graduate Medical Education curriculum Demonstrate Triple Aim outcomes Deliver care model community wide 8

EMHS Approach to Population Health 1) Up front payment for defined care coordination deliverables and meeting quality/utilization targets (recouped by employer/payor with first dollar of shared savings) 2) Expectation of a plan design that requires selection of a PCP, incentive for those with chronic conditions to utilize care coordinators, and contains more then the de minimis E.D. copay 3) Attributed population will be based on: PCP s associated with Beacon Health contracted members in Kennebec County All members who have either selected Beacon Health, PCP residing in the geography for Washington, Aroostook, Piscataquis, Penobscot, Hancock, Somerset and Waldo counties, or, members residing in the above geography who have not selected a PCP. Beacon Health will receive a performance bonus upon achievement of savings for each year of the agreement. Beacon Health and contracting party will mutually agree upon thresholds for triggering the performance bonus. For the first year of the Program BH will not pay a performance penalty in the event the Program fails to achieve savings compared to trend; and for the second and third years, BH and the contracting party will mutually agree on risk corridors and associated performance penalties in the event of losses compared to trend. 25 Together We re Stronger Lessons Learned 1) Leadership Team comfortable with ambiguity We just set sail in an unfinished boat, that requires constant construction to stay afloat, heading to an uncertain destination, in a dense fog. 2) Communicate, communicate, communicate Patients Providers Staff Community 3) Develop infrastructure with clear expectations and accountability 4) CEO mandate to allow changes other than through normal bureaucratic channels Together We re Stronger 13

Pioneer Tying Pioneer Projects to our Metrics & Definitions of Success for Pioneer 47 Pioneer Tying Pioneer Projects to our Metrics & Definitions of Success for Pioneer (closer look) Once our targets for savings and quality were set, we defined how projects will help us achieve those targets. We aligned projects under the appropriate category: Projects that help generate the saving to Medicare and projects that are focused on our quality scores. We tied those projects back to the responsible organization and put a dollar amount to how their work contributes to the target. Projects are numbered and correspond to areas that need to be addressed in the driver diagram. 48 24

Pioneer Examining a Subset of the Pioneer Population Defined criteria to subdivide the Pioneer population Broke Pioneer population into 4 subsets based on spend and chronic diseases Purpose To identify how the subsets varied from one another To identify how to best manage the health and experience for each subset To identify the largest areas for opportunity to make improvements for the population 51 Pioneer Examining a Subset of the Pioneer Population Super Users 52 26
