Spotlight on Length of Stay (LOS) Savings Not every member will be readmitted, but every member will incur a length of stay. An extensive length of stay, past clinical necessity, can cost significant dollars! The tables below illustrate the potential cost savings to a health plan as a result of implementing the Transitions to SNF program, and seeing a 20% reduction in readmission versus a 20% reduction in length of stay (LOS) with a member pool of 100 members. Readmissions Baseline - 20% 20 Post TTS - 16% 16 Readmission Reduction 4 Avg. cost per admission $20,0002 Total Cost Savings $80,000 Length of Stay (LOS) Baseline - 25 days $1,025,000 Post TTS - 20 days $820,000 LOS Reduction - 5 days Avg. cost per day/per mbr $4101 Total Cost Savings $205,000 Existing client results.

The Benefits of Transitions to SNF Proven success and satisfaction for patients Since 1987, OptumCare has been an innovator, within an expansive network, in changing the approach to clinical care to improve quality care in skilled nursing facilities and has a long and consistent track record of rapid implementation, early and substantial impact, strong outcomes, and satisfied customers Improving LOS Management Clinically managing members to the appropriate length of stay needed. Reducing SNF length of stay by one day saves as much as $410 per patient1 Avoiding readmissions for members Breaking the cycle of avoidable readmissions, reducing readmission rate. Each prevented readmission could save as much as $20,000 per patient1 Comprehensive coding Quality documentation that drives coding accuracy and completeness Gap Closure OptumCare care teams are committed to quality care and gap closure that address STAR and HEDIS measures.

Institutional Special Needs Plan (I-SNP) Delivering a coordinated care model for Medicare nursing home long term care (LTC) residents

An Enormous Opportunity to Deliver Better Care for Medicare’s Most Expensive, and Frail Population 1.5 million Medicare beneficiaries live in a skilled nursing facility (SNF) SNF-based beneficiaries are more expensive than the average beneficiary 2x 51% of SNF-based Medicare beneficiaries had one or more ER visits (vs. 28% for non-SNF beneficiaries), and had at least one hospitalization (vs. 19% for non-SNF beneficiaries) 33% 3% Only (or about 50,000) of these SNF residents are enrolled in a private Institutional Special Needs Medicare Advantage plan today Confidential property of Optum. Do not distribute or reproduce without express permission from Optum.

High Costs Are Driven by a Broken Clinical Model for SNF Patients AVOIDABLE HOSPITALIZATIONS AND ER VISITS DRIVE SIGNIFICANT COST in the medically complex population and there are a variety of factors responsible for the unnecessary utilization: Primary care physicians generally spend a relatively small amount of time in SNFs, rounding infrequently, instead managing most of their patients remotely via telephone or faxes. The time constraint also results in poor communication and coordination with SNF staff, covering physicians, and specialty providers. Important care elements such as advance directives, goals of care or polypharmacy issues are often not adequately addressed. Challenging SNF staffing leads to higher case loads creating fragmented and uncoordinated care. Confidential property of Optum. Do not distribute or reproduce without express permission from Optum.
