Legislative History Leading to Oregon’s Healthcare Transformation 2009 Oregon Legislature HB 2009 “Healthy Oregon Act” 2010 U.S. Congress Patient Protection & Accountable Care Act (PPACA or ACA), aka “Obamacare” 2011 Oregon Legislature HB 3650 – Health Care Transformation Created concept of a CCO Charged the Oregon Health Policy Board with coming up with a plan for CCO implementation 2012 Oregon Legislature SB 1580 – Coordinated Care Organizations Essentially endorsed OHPB’s plan for CCO implementation
Oregon’s North Star: The Triple Aim Better health (Population Health) Better care (Experience of Care) Lower costs (Cost Containment)
Why Transform? Why Now? Fragmented, siloed systems Unsustainable health care costs Not great health outcomes State budget woes
Oregon CCO Inception Context Resource withdrawal: 20% State Budget Shortfall 11% rate reduction in 2011 Another 19% shortfall in 2012 (eventually filled with federal investment in transformation, with strings) Oregon is a relatively efficient market Traditional ‘low hanging fruit’ is picked Creative disruption, innovation and rapid adaptation now must be core business strategies
How to reduce the cost of health care: Traditional Method: Cut, cut, cut Reduce how much we pay for services (rates) Reduce the number of people covered (eligibility) Reduce the benefits covered e.g: move the “Line” on the Prioritized List OR... Implement an innovative, long-game method: Fundamentally change the way care is organized and delivered
Vision of HB 3650 and CCO Implementation (2011 Legislative Session, Oregon Legislature) Integration & coordination of benefits & services Local accountability for health & resource allocation Standards for safe & effective care Global budget indexed to sustainable growth Redesigned Delivery System Healthier population Improved Outcomes Reduced Costs [The Triple Aim] [A CCO]
Challenge + Urgency = Opportunity “I think you should be more explicit here in Step two.”
...and everyone is watching Senate Bill 99 created the Oregon Health Insurance Exchange, which will allow Oregonians to easily compare plans, find out if they are eligible for tax credits and other financial assistance, and enroll for health coverage. An estimated 636,000 Oregonians are uninsured House Bill 3650 and Senate Bill 1580 established new provider groups serving Oregon Health Plan clients. The groups, called coordinated care organizations or CCOs, are designed to emphasize prevention and integrate medical, dental and mental health care. LEGACY HEALTH
What is a Coordinated Care Organization (CCO)? What is a CCO? What is a Coordinated Care Organization (CCO)? A CCO is a single organization that accepts responsibility for the cost of health care within a global budget and for delivery, management and quality of care delivered to the specific population of patients enrolled with the organization. MCO, DCO, MHO, Rx, County Programs, Medicare, Medicaid, Specialty, Hospital, PCPCH Fragmented, Siloed System CCO Shared Systems & Learning Coordination & Communication Local Accountability Global Budget Coordinated “Commons” System
Key Principles for Governing the Commons: Commons as metaphor for Coordinated Care Individuals know the boundaries and limits Of the resource (“Common Pool Resource”) Of the community of users (“Appropriators”) Rules are locally made and adapted to context Decisions are made together Active measurement and monitoring Effective sanctions Mechanisms for conflict resolution Latitude from higher authorities to act locally Nested Commons Source: Elinor Ostrom quote by Don Berwick in 2009 IHI Forum Plenary
CCO Theory Demands a more horizontal approach Democratizing systems that promote health, not just health care Dependent on a network model Interdependent / Inter-independent agents CCO Shared Systems & Learning Coordination & Communication Local Accountability Global Budget Requires involvement and input of a multitude of stakeholders Is accountable to those stakeholders Is a community solution, as opposed to an industry solution No longer every man (organization) for itself

What does Transformation look like? The fundamental questions we have been asking ourselves and stakeholders in our communities: Can we do more with less? Can we do more of what works? Can we let go of what doesn’t? How do we together foster communities that support the best possible lives for everyone in Oregon? Janet

Why would Oregon’s health systems agree to do all this just for Medicaid? Post-ACA, 25% of Oregonians are enrolled in Medicaid $1.9 Billion in federal investment accounts for 19% of the state’s Medicaid budget in the ‘13-’15 biennium Unclear what the expiration of this investment will do The CCO Metrics dollars are real money Policymakers are pushing to fold all publicly-funded health coverage into the CCO model PEBB & OEBB If that happened, ~40% of Oregonians would have care paid for and coordinated by CCOs
How the CCO Metrics Work (2015) Quality Pool The OHA withholds 4% of monthly payments to CCOs; to earn the 4% back, CCOs must: meet benchmarks/improvement targets for 12/17 incentive measures; and >60% of members enrolled in a PCPCH; and meet benchmark/improvement target for the EHR adoption measure Challenge Pool If there are funds remaining after the Quality Pool is distributed, they are distributed out to CCOs, based on their performance on: Alcohol and drug screening (SBIRT) Diabetes HbA1c poor control Depression screening and follow-up plan PCPCH enrollment
17 Incentive Metrics for 2014 5 Access to care (CAHPS) Adolescent well-care visits Alcohol and other substance misuse screening (SBIRT) Ambulatory care: emergency department utilization Colorectal cancer screening Controlling hypertension Depression screening and follow-up plan Developmental screenings in the first 36 months of life Diabetes HbA1c poor control Early elective delivery Electronic health record (EHR) adoption Follow-up after hospitalization for mental illness Follow-up for children prescribed ADHD medication Mental and physical health assessments for children in DHS custody Patient-centered primary care home (PCPCH) enrollment Prenatal and postpartum care: timeliness of prenatal care Satisfaction with care (CAHPS) (add ages 12+) [must actually move metric] Dental sealants on permanent molars for children Effective contraceptive use (add dental assessment)
