Primary Care Transformation through Advanced Primary Care (APC) 8 http://bhmpc.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/health-care-costs-money.jpg http://bhmpc.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/health-care-costs-money.jpg
9 Primary Care Transformation Model APC criteria was designed with intention that this would be best solution for NYS needs Verifiable progress over time Transition to performance Building capacity for VBP payments Transforming with technical support Align transformation programs under NYS PCMH program But complexity in the setting of multiple primary care transformation programs has been an ongoing challenge
10 Why align with PCMH (NCQA PCMH 2017)? Accelerating the transition toward delivering value and succeeding in new payment models for all practices in NY State Opportunity to simplify a complicated landscape and reduce confusion Why create a distinct NYS PCMH? A NYS PCMH program considers several state-specific components including investments in Health IT, Behavior Health integration, rigorous Care Coordination, Population Health, and the potential for multi-payer support Accelerating the transition toward value-based payment is a priority for NY
NYS PCMH builds on APC/PCMH 2017 by converting 12 Electives into Core without asking the practices to do more NYS PCMH criteria compared to PCMH 2017 Changes compared to NCQA PCMH Elective Core 60 40 48 52 Achieves recognition (approx.) +12 12 Additional Core criteria represent fundamental building blocks in the areas of: Behavioral Health integration More rigorous Care Coordination Health IT capabilities VBP arrangements Population Health Providers would then complete 4-7 elective criteria to earn 7 additional credits 1 PCMH 2017 NYS PCMH Continuation of TA vendor activities 1 From an NCQA point of view, the practice will have then completed NCQA's 40 Core criteria and earned 25 Elective credits (18-19 credits depending on if VBP is upside only or full risk earned from completing the 12 Elective criteria that were converted to Core for NYS PCMH, plus 6 additional credits).

23 Sepsis in New York State Approximately 50,000 patients are diagnosed with severe sepsis or septic shock each year - Almost 30% of adults, 9% of children, die in the hospital Early detection coupled with appropriate interventions can improve the chances of survival for patients with sepsis
24 NY State Sepsis Improvement Goals Increase the capacity of clinicians in NY State to recognize and treat sepsis Reduce adverse outcomes Decrease variation for sepsis mortality between hospitals
25 Department Actions Created Sepsis Advisory Group Developed a data dictionary Data collected quarterly, 70 variables, including treatment, severity, comorbidities, and discharge including 3 hour and 6 hour bundles for adults (used NQF-500 as a guide) Convened a group of clinical advisors from different pediatric subspecialties (critical care, ER, academics) to develop an 1 hour bundle for pediatrics Data collection started Q2, 2014 Hospitals have the ability to correct data Audit of data Increasing alignment with CMS SEP-1
26 Quarterly Data Reports from/to Hospitals Hospitals to DOH/IPRO Quarterly reported severe sepsis and septic shock cases, up to 2 months after closure of quarter Including all transfer cases DOH/IPRO to Hospitals Quarterly performance report includes Demographics Protocol exclusions Protocol implementation Treatment variables Treatment bundles (25 th /75 th percentile benchmark, all hospitals) Time Zero, transfers
27 Evidence-Based Interventions for Sepsis Adults Interventions recommended within first 3 hours include o o o Measurement of blood lactate level Obtain blood cultures prior to antibiotics Administer broad spectrum antibiotics Interventions recommended within first 6 hours include o o o Fluids Vasopressors Re-measure blood lactate level Pediatrics: Interventions recommended within first hour include o o o Parenteral (IV) Fluids Obtain blood cultures Administer broad spectrum antibiotics 3-Hour Bundle Helps direct appropriate care and provide early treatment 6-Hour Bundle Only for patients with septic shock 1-Hour Bundle

34 Adult Outcome measure: Risk Adjusted Mortality Rates per Hospital This figure shows the RAMR and 95% confidence interval for each hospital in the sepsis public report. Blue represents high performers (lower than expected deaths). Gold represents low performers (higher than expected deaths).
35 Results of Analyses After adjusting for patient factors, the odds of dying are 21% less for adult patients for whom a protocol was initiated at the hospital compared to patients for whom a protocol was not initiated. 27% less for adult patients who receive all of the recommended treatments within three hours compared to patients who do not receive all of the recommended treatments. 26% less for adult patients who receive all of the recommended treatments within six hours compared to patients who do not receive all of the recommended treatments
In-hospital mortality (%) In-hospital mortality (%) In-hospital mortality (%) 36 Publication Results Crude in-hospital mortality (%) and predicted risk of in-hospital mortality adjusted for covariates across a range of time after protocol initiation for completing the 3-hourt bundle (Panel A), receiving broad-spectrum antibiotics (Panel B), and completing the initial IV fluid bolus (Panel C) for a typical patient, Error bars represent 95% confidence intervals.
