One of the reasons... 4
The Governor s Council on Payment Innovation Convene health care purchasers, providers, plans and consumer advocates to prioritize and coordinate multi-payer health care payment innovation activities statewide Received federal State Innovation Model (SIM) grants to design and test payment models across multiple payers Provide access to medical homes for most Ohioans Use episode-based payments for acute medical events Prioritize state activities that enable payment innovation: Coordinate health sector workforce and training programs Coordinate HIT/HIE infrastructure Report and measure health system performance Support regional payment innovation 5

CPCi Shared Savings Approach If the region spends less than projected, Medicare will share the savings 14
Why Medical Homes AND Episodes? If the region spends less than projected, Medicare will share the savings Medical homes provide the foundation for total cost/quality accountability Population-based accountability transcends delivery system Large long-term impact: prevention and chronic disease management Requires providers to fully transform business model away from FFS Requires significant provider capabilities and commitment Episodes nested within total cost of care for more specific accountability Patient-centered design around the patient journey through the delivery system Faster to impact: clear and specific opportunities to improve Stages business model transition away from FFS for specialists and hospitals Faster to scale, independent of market structure or capabilities Fit with other models Both models implemented agnostic of provider structure, can be carved out or carved in for ACO or capitation 15
What is an Episode of Care? Definition FAQs: Episodes of care include all the care related to a defined medical event (e.g., a procedure, an acute exacerbation of a chronic condition), including the care for the event itself (e.g.,procedures, professional claims, pharmacy), any pre cursors to the event (i.e.,diagnostictests, pre operative visits), and follow up care (e.g., follow up visits, medications, rehab, readmissions). They are built from the perspective of a patient journey through the health system, providing a more comprehensive view of care involved in treating a condition for a patient. For a given episode type, a principal accountable provider is defined who is held accountable for both the quality and cost of care delivered to the patient for the entire episode. 16

Where the Value Lies 24
What Does this Mean for Employers? A Healthier Workforce and Lower Costs Where employers manage their own risk pools (self-insured), they can implement strategies that share benefits with providers, who increasingly are incented and able to provide more value-based care Lake Health Primary Care PCMH/Care Coordination initiative November 2014 25
Before We Move On... Have we provided you understandable information about Ohio s Health Transformation initiatives? Is anything unclear? Can you begin to see ways that employers, as purchasers of health care benefits and services, might relate to these initiatives? 26
